you pretty much have endless possibilities with the dx6i and dual esc's if you can get used to driving a stick  |

DX6 try Ebay nicer than the DX6i or airtronics RDS8000 both sticks have springs for returning to center. DX do not. The only use i see with 2 esc and a dig switch is shorting the motor out for lock. other than that there is no use for dig switch with 2 esc. | |

Dual stick - Spektrum DX6. Lots of possibilities for setup. Pistol grip - Nomadio React. Has 4 channels and the ability to assign any button to do what you want. - Spektrum DX3r. 3 channels, but very user friendly to setup. |

I run two ESC's with semi free roll and dig using the gear switch. I have the same dig as a DX3R and independent axles.

If you are considering stick radios, get a DX7. It blows away the DX5, DX6, & DX6i. The programming is so much easier and it has a built in 3 position switch. If you can afford it, it's the better transmitter. I started with the DX6 and moved up to the DX7 so I speak from experience. I will admit, stick radios are not for everyone, but if you can get use to it, it's got endless possibilities.  |

One of the guys posted his set up for the Futaba 4PK. It's a pretty spendy radio but in my eye's it's totally worth it. I have tried the stick radio thing and for me it just wasn't there. I have also tried te DX3R and had some major glitching issues and it felt like crap in my hand. I have never had good luck with Spektrum anything though. Maybe it has something to do with my bloodflow in my body o something. My buddy ran the car with the CX3R in it (his radio, my car) and no glitching. I run it and it goes wild. And nothing changed, not even a flick of the on/off switch. |

When I first was building my berg I bought the DX6i. I tried it but couldn't get used to the stick driving especially when under the comp pressure. So I went to my DX3R using a switch style setup. Then I upgraded to the Futaba 4PK and went back to dual ESC's. I would never go back to a stick radio or the DX3R.
