froggy8 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 hi guys, i am wanting your opinion on which spektrum controller you would go for please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epons300 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 128+2 lol, seriously though im looking and it looks like they run pretty much same technology, just different software, more parameters etc, I was looking at the dx3c and dx3s, I think the 3s is prettier, some one will be along a guru or summats, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderwolf Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 if your on a budget get the dx3c if you have the money dx3s if you need 4 channels then dx4s i've got the dx3c and dx4s, dx3c i'm going to sell as the dx4s does the same job but has 4 channels which i could do with.

DannyP Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 If I was buying another car Tx it would have to be the Dx4s Loved my Dx3s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dx3c will go for about 1/2 mile, i tested it when i first got it as a curiosity, it helped when i upgraded my receiver as now its going alot further Edited February 9, 2013 by jake1*2011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenmarr Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Ours could have been a bad batch my bash spot is a place called The Curragh Plains its about 5,000 acres of open grasslands and my range was terrible. You are a lucky one with the DX3c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksprogis Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Very true , Mines horrible too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkfat78 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I'd go for the DX3S personally. Or if you want more model memory and an illuminated screen, plus 4ch, go for the DX4S. Never had any range issues with any of my Spektrums. My cars can always keep going until I actually loose site of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981robbo Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Im using a dx3s with an orange rx and I've no complaints. I havnt bothered with the telemetry though as im already using a venom speed meter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are a lucky one with the DX3c It seems most range issues actually start from the rx I know many that changed the rx and then had no range issues Using the marine rx as also ment to sort it Sent from my iPhone using Crapatalk.
