So I have been using a hi-tech agressor for a few years now and wanted something better. My buddy has a couple DX3.0's that have been great for him, I'm talking all you can see is a dust trail far in the distance his range is so good.
Ever since I picked up this DX3S I have had my doubt's, although the telemetry is not hooked up it would flash on the screen if I got over 50 ft but it would still control just fine. The other day I was just warming up a strung out .18 TZ in my RS4 SS, I had put the new radio into the car because it was "new". Well just as I'm ready to pull some wot passes the car just goes WOT accross the lot and into a curb!!! Then it sat there and screamed it's little lungs out as I ran for it's life lol.
I'm not very happy with this radio, I also believe that it was the cause for the wot with my savage. I previously thought it was my fault due to a linkage issue, but it did the exact same thing.
I was standing at the cone in front of the car, it lost control where I am standing in the pic and then hit the curb behind me in the distance..... That's pretty bad range for a radio like this I would think?
And the video where I believe the radio lost signal.
