I have owned a acoms 2.4ghz and there ok but not really upto racing spec in my opinon, you get what you pay for, some lads at Bury race track use them but if you have the cash go for a spectrum or sanwa system well worth the money.
I haven`t looked back since i upgraded radio gear

I have used one of these. Its what you pay for really. If you want a all singing all dancing radio set, buy a spektrum, i bought an DX3s off her for a £100 with all tele and 2rx's. Je spares have an offer on DX3 £114.99 its a bit more then the acoms but i think your mainly paying for quality. Even better idea buy a second hand one. Seen a spektrum dx3 floating around in the for sale section for £70

Tell us what you buy mate.

Issue with the DX3s is that its £114 and no servos - the acoms is £70 all in. Same with the Ansman/Sanwa. I am just setting up again after years out and trying to balance the books - seems it might be better to "compromise" on the radio rather than the car/batts/charger etc. As long as it "works" what makes one 2.4gz radio "better" than another (naive question alert!!)? Will have a look at 2nd hand etc.

Cheers for assitance.

The DX3 comes with 2 servos and receivers for £114 for Jespares. There's normally a link/ad at the top of the page.
