Futaba 2.4mhz

[Martinst]

I'm looking at buying a Futaba 3gr 2.4mhz, transmitter + receiver. Has anyone had any experience with these ? are they the best setup to go for in that price range

Cheers

I have one in front of my now, and I love it. I haven't run it yet, but the menu's seem pretty straightforward. Its a bit like a more plastic version of the 3VCS. However, it does feel pretty solid. For the price, its probably the best stick radio with 2.4 ghz. Unless you have a 40mhz set that can have a spektrum module fitted to it?

The receiver retail at £90 in the UK though, which is expensive.

If you can use a wheel radio, i would consider the new Spektrum DX3R too. as I've heard good things about it. Spekky receivers are cheaper too.
