jr xs3 upgrade?

[losi-runner-13]

hello i have a simple question. i was wondering if it would be worth buying a used radio to upgrade my jammin x1 rtr right out of the box. one of the guys at my track is selling the radio out of his lst and i was wondering if it would be worth the 100 bucks. also it is synthesized. he says he only used it once.
i was also looking at upgrading the steering servo to this, http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdId=JSP20070

thanks for all of the help.

cheers

I use a the xs3 and IMO it's well worth it and yes it is synthesized.

thats 2 now............its worth it cause you aint gota sit outa races because someone else uses the same frequency.........easy to change without buying sets of extra expensive crystals.........also you can use that same radio for up to 6 different cars...........i like mine.......does he have any receivers for sale ?

make that 3...
for 100 bucks thats a good deal.

That is a decent deal so long as it is all in working condition and it isn't thrashed.

With all the new spektrum stuff coming out, expect the market to have a lot of the synth systems to go.. Heck I may get rid of mine if I can squeeze some cash to geta nice 3PK with Spektrum....

For now the XS3 has ALL the tuning options I woud use and more.

no, but there is someone else selling a JRSX3PRO with a 310 and a 300 reciver 75meg all paper work for 125. he just dropped the price from 175$. if you pm me i can get you his info and give you the sight he is on so you can set something up if you are interested.

also thank you all for helping me make up my mind.

cheers

I have an SX3 and I LOVE it. More then enough tuning options and I have RS30 or RS310 in almost all my rides. Has a 5 model memory as well in case trim and such are diff on each ride. Might have to pick up another one if they are going to come down in price so much. Hard to tune the radio for 9 diff rides now. hehe

do you think it will be enough torque?
