Spektrum DX3R
 

Hey guys, thought id share what i found when browsing through the net ; http://www.spektrumrc.com/Products/D...ProdID=SPM3100

Personally i think it looks pretty weird, but a good thing is it has 30 model memory! :)

Looks awesome IMO;

Yeah, I wish I had known about that before I bought the DX3.0! The 30 model memory is nice, along with the graphical display and the faster response. Looks like they are trying to be more competitive with Nomadio. ~$300 though, and probably only comes with one receiver.

Nice looking Radio and great features. It has been added to my list of radio's to consider when I upgrade to an FM system.

It's all about the functionality.. I have got this memory feature on my transmitter too, though i never use it.. it's less of a hazzle to choose a reverse steering than selecting another model..

it looks sweet!

Me like! I think this will probably be my next radio,i have plans to go racing so i'm wanting a 2.4GHz jobbie,looks like it has all the features i use and none that i don't.

thanks a ton man i was going to buy a d3.0 but now i will be getting this instead because of its big memory.

For the price of it, it's not much more economical than a M11 with Spektrum conversion. $339.90 shipped in the US for the M11 and Spektrum conversion:

Then you don't have to wait 2-3 more months for the Spektrum system and you get just as many model memories...and the ability to pop in a Novak Switch to go FM if you have old FM Rx's laying around to use too.

Hey! Where is the throttle trigger?! :005:

Spektrum engineers: "Awww crap! I knew we forgot something! Back to the drawing board!" lol

LOL. I never knew they were Rednecks! ;)

LOL... i just noticed that!

Very cool. Although, since I only bash, so many features are kind of useless... but of course, always a plus to have if the unknown happens. :027:

just saw this, I think it looks pretty good. If I didn't already have a helios I would probably pick one up.

grrrrrrrr.... i just bought my dx3.0 a couple weeks ago. :mad:1

oh well. i'm quite happy with what i have. thrilled, actually. that new design looks great though - and the larger display is a great upgrade.

Still love my Sensor. Though I'm sure this is big improvement over the previous JR Tweak radio.

Looks good to me...the big screen looks very nice. The price needs to go down tho IMO; the React is a fair bit cheaper (you can get the kit for $230 at RC Compound:eek: ), and still way outclasses it in terms of features.

I love the look of it though. I wonder what's behind this "DSM2" system.:032:

LOL. Don't feel bad, I just did the same thing. I figured that since the DX3.0 hadn't been out for very long, I'd have at lest 6 months before the "new thing" came out. Like you, I still like the DX3.0.

+3. I actually like the grip and feel of the dx3.0 over the original dx3.

I dont need 30 model memory anyway, plus, i prefer radios that use a throttle trigger ;)

LOL, a trigger is nice to have. Maybe the new one works off brain waves, which explain the "faster system". :)

I still have my DX3 which I use for the Revo and Jato. The DX3.0 I use with the Hyper 8 and CRT.5 because it has exponential throttle and steering (VERY cool features). This way, I can have two radios running at once, which would be good if I could even get the wife to try it.

WTF????? there is no trigger, i just noteced that lmao!!! wierd

do you guys think there really is a trigger it is just behine the wheel.

I'm sure there IS, it must either be hidden by the wheel or a graphic oops.

Maybe that's just an empty prototype case...so the trigger ain't there yet.:032:

it it like senses how hard ur pullin lol

Great...Now that just made my choice alot harder on what radio to get...What do you guys think?

1. React
2. Sensor
3. DX3R
4. Helios

For what my opinion's worth Squee, I say get the React. I've had mine for a few weeks now and it is *excellent*! It's lightweight and extremely comfortable, the feature list is just huge (and constantly getting bigger with the software updates), and you get the signal security that only FHDSS can offer. It's lightning-fast, and the telemetry is an absolute lifesaver sometimes. For example, when you're driving an experimental BL setup and you're not aware that the motor is overheating, if you have a temp sensor fitted (it'll support up to four) then it'll warn you and save your bacon.
I really can't say enough good things about it. There are some very minor niggles, but nothing that takes away from it. If you're interested, then I've written an in-depth review of it here: http://www.rckingdom.co.uk/mam/index...d=214&Itemid=1.

Or course you can't go wrong with the Sensor either, but the React offers more future upgradeability (the Sensor's memory is already full), and has features that the Sensor doesn't at a lower price.
Anyway, that's my 2 pence.:027:

Yea, I have really wanted the React for a while now, but I like the big screen that the Sensor has. In all honesty, the React is probably gonna be what I'm gonna go with. I do really like the DX3R though...I would probably get it if it had telemetry and could be updated via computer...

I find myself wanting. Wonder if it has temperature or voltage monitors. Sure will be nice if it does.

Maybe it has an wireless throttle trigger where you wear a ring around your finger.

"Here, hold the radio for a second" - BRAAAAAP!!! - OH CRAP!

I really like the 'style' of the new Spektrum, but...
I just got my new React yesterday. It's not quite perfect, but it sure is sweet!
---NO ANTENNA!!! :027:
