Default 3 channel question

I have a spektrum dx3.0 and I know it don't have a 3 position 3rd channel. Other than spending a ton of more cash on a dx3r, what other options do i have for the 3rd channel in a radio? I would like to use my other dig. I could go for fm or 2.4 either would be fine if it has EPA's. I searched all the topics in here first and couldn't find anything. Forgive me if I overlooked it.

Just a regular DX3 would do.

I thought that's what my dx3.0 was? Is that a differant radio than the plain dx3? If so what would one cost?

DX3, DX3.0, DX3R, DX3S, all different radios.

Should be cheap. It's the first one they had.

Thanks for the help. Looks like I have some time to wait for one since I just twisted my cvd's. Crap

The DX3 is simply the older model of the current DX3.0. From what I heard, you may potentially be able to use front and rear dig with the DX3.0 by reversing the 3rd channel manually on the radio while driving to trick it into using the dig not being used.

Ive been a huge KO Propo fan for years and picked up a EX-1UR since my Helios wouldnt run the dig. It was super easy to set up and gives the option for a forth channel as well. The FM modules and receivers from the Helios work fine (even though KO wont admit it). I picked mine up at Stormer for $239 with the KO 2.4 module and super small 4 channel receiver. Only thing it wont do is mix channels, but I dont run a MOA truck so I dont really need it.

What's the differance between the dx3 and the dx3.0 that allows the 3rd channel to be 3 way? Anyone k ow where a guy can find one of the dx3's?
