Replacement for KO propo Universe 3 ?

[Rich D]

Are there any reliable rumours of a replacement radio for the ko universe 3 ?

Was disappointed when their newest design was that stick/wheel combo unit. I don't know of anyone who uses one !? :(.

I gave up looking! But you never know... send them an email and express your interest.

I've actually been really happy with my Esprit 3 since getting the later KO 2.4 module/Rx. So I'm not really looking to upgrade, a little concerned about long term reliability, but there still seems to be plenty around for spares.

I was hoping that someone from Rc disco might have an idea. Ill drop them email if nobody sees this.

Sanwa FTW

Is the Sanwa Gold plated? The price seem's to reflect this.

I don't think the Sanwa is much different in price to Universe when it was released - and the Sanwa is dedicated 2.4...

Personally I am also using the new FHSS module and receivers with my Universe and it has been faultless every time with a very fast bind even indoors (where the old module struggled for me).

I think the Sanwa with the bonus receiver deal when it is around (was last week) is great, and if I had to buy a new radio it would probably be that one - but I do prefer the dimensions in hand of the KO

I'm hope i'm wrong but I really doubt we'll see a new stick radio from KO, the market just isn't big enough for them :(

I hope your wrong Adam ......... but I too doubt it.

Sanwa is like holding a breeze block with scafold poles for sticks compared to the KO

Read into this what you wish !

Richard,

KO Japan will not let us release information on any new products until they are ready to talk about it.

This is all that I can comment at this time.
