atom3624 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Is one front, the other rear for a 4WS MT? Could be fun!! Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Interesting idea, but can't see it being terribly practical. I have about 20 txs of varying brands, can't be bothered to picture them, my main one is my DX4C. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom Racers Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 As rc guys in the U.K. Our models spend more time on the shelf shed etc.... than they do on road. Obviously this is down to the weather as we can't compete with the USA or Dubai etc... that's why most U.K. Rc guys spend the shelf shed etc...time very constructively working on our models. This remote is a result of the time my models were on the shelf shed etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 What's the point of 2 wheels? I can switch my DX4R Pro right to left, but can't see the point of both at the same time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Imho, which often counts for nowt in the grand scheme of things I like futaba, certainly not a Spekky fan, however having had the chance to poke at the new one, it is impressive, again, IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 how have you connected the wiring up inside ? or is it just for show ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Does this new one eliminate the previous signal issues when running with petrols? TBH, I like my DX4C that much with my electrics, I'm tempted to stick an SRS4210 out of a 5ive in there, they seem to have no problems with signal at all from my findings and it would certainly make it easier having it all on one tx. Just have to disable that gimmick of AVC and it'll be just as a normal rx, but hopefully, won't fail in the signal department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 This reminds me of when those arab Sheiks gold chrome wrap a Mercedes G63 or something. Yes, it was obvioiusly expensive, but it looks absolutely ridiculous and serves no purpose in the real world? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was advertised "excellent working order with x3 receivers plus original battery plus life 2s battery plus carry case. I won the bid at £157.01 but 1 reciever never worked and on the tx the D R and atl dials don't work also the steering trim and throttle trim don't work from the drop down but can b done using the sub trim mode. Needless to I got in touch with the seller who kindly refunded me £50 so all of the above cost £107.01 plus £4.50 for postage. Bargain. I wonder what all spare parts are worth.

Oh yes and of course that's why I have two steering wheels on my Futaba 4pk super r, wouldn't want people to burn the few remaining brain cells they have thinking about what a waste and do it if u can etc....as the original plan was to keep the receivers and sell tx back on eBay but plans don't always work and u end up creating something epic.

You're insulting people's intelligence when you've put two wheels and a trigger on your TX when you only have 2 hands? Ok cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
