BDW Tripple S ...yes another one!

but why all that money in good gear and then the old school Reciever?

I use a Futaba 7C stick radio and needed at least a 5 channel RX to get the dig servo on a switch. It looks big but it's pretty light. I just got a new Futaba R6106HF 6-Channel micro RX that'll look better up there and weigh a tiny bit less. "thumbsup" Since I started using a stick radio for crawling a wheel just doesn't feel right... even though I that's what I'd always used before and still use for my other RC stuff. The 7C is a sweet radio and pretty reasonable at $279. The micro 4 channel RX that I use on my MOA rigs is ridiculously tiny & light and only $50... the new 6 channel micro is $60.
 
Rig looks very clean for as much as you have stuffed in there. The old school recievers are definitly worth looking at. People get caught up in the super new stuff and forget you can geta good score wit halot of options with some ofthe older stiff. Im still on the fence about a stick or wheel. If I go rear steer I think it would be alot more natural to contol.
 
...a stick seems natural to me now no matter what, but it's the nads for dual ESC MOA & dual ESC/steer supers for sure. To be honest though I need more time with the super... F&R DIG and 4 wheel steering is a lot to process, I'm sure it'll be worth figuring out though.

Got some pics on the rocks this morning and killed a servo:evil:

...struggled a bit too, need to rethink how I approach stuff and be smoother I think....
