I learned this from a 13 year old, Zip tie around the handle and connect the lanyard to the zip tie

Cool little holster

It's nice, and more out of the way than the neck lanyard I currently use on my FlySky (and the conversion I made for my Futaba 3PV) - but $45 is crazy steep...

That's Kydex firearm holster money, yet it's a much simpler piece than the majority of firearm holsters I've seen.

And the worst thing about it - You have to wear a BELT!!!

I find belts uncomfortable, especially in the heat of summer here in Texas...

My Futaba conversion for a lanyard:

(I cringed at the $17.99 price for the carbon chunk, but hey - it's "tech-bling" - but the hardware for the lanyard loop were CPU mounting bolts I had laying around)

I just noticed at the bottom of the pic below the price it says or best offer so maybe you can get one for less

That controller holster is nerdier than wearing a cellphone holster...

Maybe I should market a fanny pack to hold RC spares on the trail.

Who made the carbon part? That's cool.

lol I've actually been looking for a fanny pack/trail pack hahaha "Its not a purse its a SACHEL! Indiana Jones wears one!"

Casey my son did the ziptie thing did he pick that up from you at proline? genius. the only TX i have with a stock integrated lanyard loop is from my RTR Yeti. i wonder why more companies don't integrate that? i was about to screw a picture hanger D ring on mine but that carbon thingy Dirk posted is awesome!

and yes $45 is way too steep i don't care if its kydex. i bet they are kicking themselves over not getting this out ahead of axialfest though. why do i get the feeling they would sell out of these if they sold them there?

i was thinking something like this could work too. (okay yes, inspired by lightsaber belt clips... im a nerd.)
seen these for as little as $3 on office depot's website.

It's actually made by Futaba, works for the 3PV and 4PV:

mounts right up using included screws - I then drilled mine out for a lanyard mount using the eyebolt-looking thing meant for mounting a CoolerMaster heatsink to a CPU:

You might be hip or, these days, a hipster. Oakley seems to be trying to make the fanny back cool again! Not that it was ever cool...



If you look at the link it appears that they're trying to bring the 80's back.

For my trail TX's I use a couple of the rubber wrist bands put together with a key ring. Tie wrap one band to the handle of the TX and a caribener on the other end and clip it to a belt loop. Don't care for neckstraps.

I wear a sporty-style fanny pack from Dollarama. It has what I believe to be a water bottle holder - but I use it to carry a tall can. I usually bring three for an average trail run, one in hand, one in the pack, and one in my back pocket.

Oh ya, fanny pack also holds a few tools and parts.

Gf and I went out for dinner at a Firkin pub after a walk on Saturday, after leaving my sweater at our booth and heading for the pisser, I realized I was still wearing it, shirt belted under it and all.
