Are they any good? Will it automatically drive the car round the track for me?

No I didnt, and thought it looked more bling than the KO lol, everyone seems to have them (the KO, which is an obvious good thing) but decided to be a bit different!

I just swapped my KO Esprit III for one of these Sanwa Exzes Plus units and it's freakin awesome! To me it feels better in the hand, the sticks are shorter and can be off set, the spring tension can be adjusted without opening the transmitter up and a lipo fits straight in without modification. Huge screen with either white or blue backlit screen options and very easy to use menu's. All in all a fantastic tx you won't regret you got it. I saw Doughty's and that is what convinced me to get one.

I've been using Sanwa for years.

Currently using an Super Exzes, had a Exzes before that. Will get a Super Exzes at some stage.

Been happy with it all these years. My initial reason for getting one was the same, it felt better in the hand then the KO. Also the menu is much simpler to use than the KO.
