Default TQ3 info

Can almost any crystal be used in the TQ3 or does it have to be a Traxxas crystal? Has anyone used the 3-way switch from the crawler store and what do you think of it?

None of my Radio shacks carry them any more. "You have to order on line"

Pissed me off when they told me that cause of the way they acted, Like I'm some 15 yr old that doesn't know what I'm looking for. As5hats, told them I would now rather go down the road and pay the extra $5 or $10 then talk to you again.

Bad thing is I had to go back the next day for a switch for my TQ3 mod. It sucked.

I tried a few crystals from my other Futaba radios and had no luck so I guess I'll have to pick up some x-mod crystals. Thanks guys for the info.

Ok went home to investigate and the crystals I've got are 75 mhz. Thanks again guys for your responces.

Go to radioshack they have draws with on-off-on switches this is what you need to do the rear steer mod. You can just ask the people at the front for a on-off-on switch they will hook you up. I know where everything is in our radioshack so i dont ask for anything ;) im in there daily
