Default Your thoughts on the xs3

what are your thoughts on this radio!?

I'm going to start touring car racing again! this winter! and i don't think my lynx will make the cut unless i get a couple new receivers and i found these to be a cheap alternative to the lynx with the synth! since receivers for the lynx are about 65 a pop i can get them a little cheaper on ebay but i need three of them! scaler comper race car! haha

thanks for your impute! and if i get one i will pick up another receiver for the comp truck since it will have a dig soon and use the lynx on the scaler for the winch!

I ran an XS3 for both my crawlers and my on-road stuff. Good radio; has all the major features you need for touring like exponential and dual-rate and the dual rate can be adjusted on the fly via the thumb button.

I ran one on my Baja, Savage, LST2, and 1/8th buggy before I sold it all. I loved it and if I wasnt on such a tight budget (and happen to have a stock Mini LST setup laying around) I would be using it on my AX-10.

Just picked up a XS3 today from a buddy to use on a Drift Car and a Crawler. Works awesome, has all the features you need.

I liked mine, only thing was, it liked batteries, a lot. I would get rechargeable batts for it, or a lipo. Good radio though.
