Hyperhumding Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Looks quite swish and a competator for the acoms set. That looks like a fair price too, I'm anxious to see what it performs like. Adam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolw Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) 2.4GHz is definately the future in cars, in airplanes I'm staying on 35MHz.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDn2Qp-vkKA http://www.myvideo.de/watch/2348181 Peter Edited May 8, 2009 by wolw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwik-kid Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 well if everyone goes 2.4ghz, im gunna stick with 40mhz. as i will have no interfearance as everyone else will be fighting for the 2.4ghz spektrum. crystals wont die... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danb1990 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 what, better than you think it will be as long as you don't use a select few servos? Yeah, I don't find anything wrong with the Acoms one, had mine for 18 months now and it works fine, not had any problem with servo's, (quick Q: which servos should I avoid then?).

It's like that already where I race. Although you can have up to 80 2.4ghz transmitters on at once, no one uses 27mhz, so I don't have to worry about crystals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revorocks Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I can't wait for some reviews on this. I've been wanting to go 2.4ghz for a while, at that price looks like I could. I hope its good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Terminator Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 If it has the same CPU in there as the Sanwa MX3,whos shell it has and general layout,it'll trounce the Acoms,thats a damn fact,the MX3 range of radios are the best balanced and comfortable radios i've used and have all the functions plus they have an ace in the hole,3 CHANNELS not 2 like the Acoms. The button layout looks slightly different to the Sanwa MX3 but the case is the same,would be interesting to know just who is the mfr,Shumachers new radios are the same exactly only Mhz and not Ghz...

Havoc87 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) I really want to invest in a 2.4Ghz radio (Which needs to be 3Ch) for the MTA, as I'm going to be bashing with more people. Seems alot of affordable options are coming into the market now, and out of the cheaper options this one seems most appealing to me, can't wait to see some reviews/experiences with it.

It says made by sanwa. Wonder if that's true or not I would definitely get one of these instead of an acoms. I wonder how much spare RX's will cost though.

colmo Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Sanwa are changing their 2.4ghz radios over to FHSS 2 - perhaps Ansmann are using the first gen Sanwa FHSS, much as Losi use Spektrum DSM and not DSM 2 systems in their RTR radios? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Terminator Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 They already have done that,its just like Spekkies DSM2,better range and signal quality,I very much doubt the radio system inside will be Sanwa,the one I had thats pictured was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r3nos Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I remember seeing the four button on the left before, in metallic finish.... can't rember the radio set though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolw Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Carl, Was there a big difference with MX3 being 2.4GHz from a 27MHz system (crystal inconvenience set aside) ? Thing is that I got a Sanwa/Perfex KT14 with my ST-S (which I'll let my wife and son run) and now I'm putting together another one that needs a radio. I think the radio is great, comfortable and easy to program. A new KT14 goes cheap on E-bay, I think I'd prefer a good/proven 27MHz before a low end 2.4GHz.
