| Cheap radio/receiver
Looking for a good cheap radio for my clod. I basically have two options First option. Buy a new cheap radio. What’s the best bang for the buck? Any of them have the capabilities of controlling rear steer? If not ill just use a y harness and a basic 2 channel. Second option pick up another receiver for my old school MX-3. If I go this route does anyone have any suggestions on a receiver to use? Thanks Chris |

Flysky Gt3b Turnigy GTx3 (Same thing) Its a 3 channel. If you get the hacked version or the hack kit from Losikid, it can become up to a 8 channel receiver. With more options than most know what to do with Radio, stock, is about $40 Each receiver is $8 for the 3ch and like $15 for a 8 channel give or take a few bucks. |

^ Fly Sky GT3B or the newer model FS GT3C I have the latter... non hacked. does most of what I need stock. Sadly, the RX that came with the GT3C (GR3E) failed when more then 6v was run thru it (BEC). So look for a GT3C that has the newly designed GR3F RX with it. The re-designed GR3F RX is supposed to handle up to 8v * ^ valuable if running an HO servo. Kool thing about Fly Sky offerings... is that they're compatible with Axial's first run AX series TX/RX as well with the FS GT3B I purchased two of the GR3F RX's for my GT3C... But I'm currently using my original Axial RX and since it hasn't fried... I've not installed the GR3F FS RX yet. I personally feel the FS offerings are the cheapest bang for your buck. |

If youre really trying to stay cheap I say get a flysky gt-2 from hobbypartz.com My son has been using it for over 3 years with no issues. Great 2.4ghz 2channel for <$20 and additional receivers are <$10
