Spectrum Transmitter

[Revo Rancher]

Just stopped by my favorite LHS (ROb's R/C Hobbies in Garden Grove) and he just got in a bunch of the new Spektrum Transmitters. The entire package includes 2 servos, one Spektrum Rx, battery holder for 4 AA's, switch for leads and batt pack, and the new transmitter. The servos and Tx are made by JR. It is a pretty cool looking silver with red accents. All this for 209.99. Not a bad deal considering the original Spektrum Transmitter module and Rx alone was 149.99. Almost bought one but then I read that they are coming out with a telemetry model inthe future. I can wait, my Airtronics MX3-S is fine for now.

The product does not show up in their website but you can e-mail or call them for an internet order, too.

Anyone else notice the similarity between this and the old JR XR2?

 

[Revo Rancher]

Yes to both, and at Rob's you can get it for 209.99. Call them and they will honor that price for a mail order shipment.

Hey that's pretty sweet! To the for sale forum batman! Anyone looking for a Fut 3PM??? Thanks

 

[Revo Rancher]

Hey, Jetmech, Rob's is somewhat near the Long Beach airstrip. Just go south on 405 to 22 FWY east, first exit is Knott St., turn left at end of exit, go straight 1/4 mile east on Garden Grove Blvd. Save yourself shipping!

the guy at my lhs said it is based on the JR and he is not going to carry the JR anymore because of it ... since this is the new hot thing ...

Be sure to let us know how it is. I want to see if it's worth my hard-earned cash.

I'll actually be out there next week but my wife and daughter are coming with me. I have to work the first three days we'll be there in LA but then we are heading to San Diego for a week. Works out good, the boss pays our change fee, otherwise I would have to fly back to Indy friday night, then get up at O'darkthirty to head back out there when my vacation officially starts. Maybe on the way to SD we'll make a pit stop.

Plaid, I'll let you know!

Well, I got mine today. Gonna put it on my Serpent for sundays races. I'll give a write up for you guys. It's basically the body of a JRXR2 and Z590 and a stock servo. Pretty good price. I think retail is $249. I got it for less ...

diver how much do you plan to sell the xs3 for?

 

[Diver6127]

If I sell it, it'll come with 2 RS300 receivers and no servos. It's barely used mmmmmmmmmm, I'd say at least $170 negotiable. BUT I'm not selling yet so price may change. I'm just pulling numbers out my ass for now.

EDIT
Let's take this to PM's if you're serious about it. You contacted me first, I'll give you first dibs after I think about it for a while and we negotiate.
