Sanwa MT4

[mikeyscott]

I currently have a Sanwa M11x, but TBH find it quite big for me. What's the thoughts re the MT4?

Been told the M12 is no smaller than the M11x

Its a great radio, I have one with the dropdown and highly recommend both the radio and drop down.
Im going to look at getting the back lighting and vibration kit to install later

I tried both an M11 and an M12. Found both to be too heavy and also not that well balanced, M12 in particular felt heavy and fitting a lipo made it tip forward.

Went with the MT4 in the end, much lighter and better balanced, not to mention half the price!

Ah yes I meant to come and have a look on Saturday!

A friend at TORCH is letting me try his this weekend. I'm using 451 RXs and maybe 471 as they are nice and small.

I had this same Dilemma.

I did get an M12 but I ordered it from RC-Mushroom, which in theory cost me 70 quid more than a UK procured M4.

Took 5 days to get here and cost me £40 quid in Customs.

If you get the M4 from Rc-Mushroom its 120 quid.

They currently offer fres EMS shipping on the M12. As for warranty, its still got to go back to Hong Kong, but touch wood its been perfect so far, great radio and super fast....

What about Futaba 4PLS there nice

My MT-4 is hands down the best piece of RC equipment i've bought this year, get this radio.

Tons of features/tuning aids, super fast response (when you set the servo mode to SHR it makes a Savox 1256 servo feel more like a 1258) and ease of use make it a winner for half the price of some equivalent sets, I love it.

I came from an Ansmann W3.1 which itself wasn't bad for the price but this is in a different league. If you get it from RCMart/Dinball you can get a deal where you get the Yeah Racing padded bag with it:

I saw the rc mart deal on flebay and was very tempted but heard that it can be a real nightmare if you have to claim under the warranty with stuff from Hong Kong...

Anybody had any experience with buying or even better having to make a claim on radio gear from Hong Kong/RC mart?

If not can I get anything decent from the UK for an equivalent price? Around £170?

Cheers guys!

My friend is selling a Futaba 4PL with 2 receivers for £150. It's mint as it was his spare. His user name on here is Scoyle.
