Wheel transmitter
 

Have got an Ansmann W5 at the moment an it just doesnt feel right, the steering on the wheel seems loose, looking to upgrade an wondered if anyone had any suggestions? Looking around £40-£50 mark with reciever

Save up a bit more and get one of these: Spektrum DX3C

You'll struggle to find anything better than your ansmann for 40-50, unless you go second hand.

Im open to 2nd hand as just starting out an W5 came with another RC car but the spring action when turning feels slack an to be honest cheap

Turn it upside down. Look for a wheel tension adjustment screw. Tighten it up a bit.

Just had a quick look an cant see any adjustment for it:thumbdown:

hmm, maybe its too cheap for that...

Trawl the for sale forum, or get a better new rig. Spektrum DX3C, Ansmann W6 are much better, for £60-£75. Anything for less than £50 is going to be as cheap or cheaper than your W5.

I believe their was an ansmann W6 direct copy on ebay from china, for not much money. A racer I know has one, and it seems ok. Same as ansmann w6, but with a different badge.

Will have a look into it as need something sharper, Looked into W6 as have to compatible receivers for it but hard to know how it feels without ordering it

Ask to feel some tranny's at your local club ;-)

There is a big regional meeting coming your way this coming weekend.:thumbsup:

I know its my local track where ive started off at but work is holding me back, will try to come down on sunday tho to say hello

Search ebay for a flysky GT3B or GT3C.

Hobby King trannies are also Ansmann compatible, as are Eurgle.



The older ansmann W3.1 feels ok, tbh. A mate has one. you may pick one up second hand?

Do u know if the flysky is ansmann compatible as have been looking at them

The flysky GT3B is a direct clone of the Ansmann W6 I believe. Google says they are 100% compatible.
