What's the best stick 2.4ghz out at the moment ?

[john333]

depends how much you want to spend....Sanwa Gemini X, Sanwa Exzes X or Sanwa Exzes Z, nothing else comes close (or is still available to buy)

Hi,
I have just changed to a Sanwa Exzes Z with RX-472 receivers, used my son's Sanwa Exzes X whilst on holiday and thought it was a great set. I am running nearly everything on factory settings at present, the feel and response is excellent with both the the X & Z sets.
My original radio gear was a Ko Universe with Spektrum module and receivers and in my opinion was not as responsive.

if your on a tight budget i suggest this

CORE R/C CODE 2.4G FHSS 2 Stick 3Ch Transmitter & Receiver

http://www.modelsport.co.uk/core-rc-...products/38217

i had one of these for 6 months and had zero problems...although the sticks were a little long...these can be cut down

i have now upgraded to a gemini x though

cheers

Sanwa Gemini X uses the same FHSS3 Technology as the more expensive EXZES models that have a lot of extra features that you may not need. The Core/Etronix Tx's are okay for the money but the control with Sanwa is super smooth and fine

I have the Core type tranny and am quite happy with it.

Quite happy. Not entirely happy. Never have any reception problems and the set certainly feels fine in the hand and to use. However I recently invested in in a top notch Xpert servo and this has shown up a bit of a shortcoming with the transmitter.

The servo jitters like a maniac! I believe the frame rate of the transmitter is too slow for the servo. ie the servo is so reactive that it's showing up this slight flaw. It judders and jitters from one end of it''s travel to the other. The car is still driveable, but it's not nice.

I'll go back to my old, slightly slower servo in the meantime, but I'll be looking to upgrade to a Futaba or Sanwa soon.
