Default Radio

Sorry, forgot to ask what a good radio would be. I am using 4 wheel steering on my super bully axles. I was told dual stick, but really haven't seen and dual stick radios that are for ground use...only see air ones. Thanks

They may be for air use but you won't find anyone to stop you from using it. A good surface radio that is also a pistol radio would be a hacked flysky gt3b or newer gt3c that are sold by a vendor on here losikid and the website is overkillrc.com iirc

Buy a 4 channel radio like 4PL if you want to use 4 wheel steering (two channel for steering and one for throttle). Spare one channel for winch control or light control...etc.

Or a hacked flysky that has 8 channels (so 5 spare channels for what ever you want to control)

Futaba's 4YF has both air and surface channels in it's FM unit, and is also available in 2.4 ghz.
