what radio is better jr r-1 or the jr xs3

I'm got a losi lst coming on the way and i was wondering if i should keep my jr r-1 and put that in the losi or just use the stock xs3 that comes with it , my r-1 is the pcm model

HOnestly if I were getting an LST, I'd leave the XS3 right in there. I have an XS3 and it's full of awesome features. Fully programmable. And the version that comes in the LST has a synth tx and rx so you don't need crystals. You can change channels just by turning a couple knobs. It's an awesome setup. You can't go wrong with it.

i dont know if the pcm or the fm would be better i know the f-1 is alittle bit older model then the xs3 but i thought pcm was the best you can get so you dont get interfence but the xs3 has the no crystal thing I'm confused each one has its good points

No doubt the R-1 looks like a great radio. By no means am I dogging it. It's like you said. Tough choice. The nice thing is that the LST does come with a great radio. Not one of the bottom line AM systems that most RTR's come with. The synth feature is awesome. I guess if it were me, it would be a tough choice. No doubt both are perfectly capable rigs.

The R-1 is JR's top of the line "flagship" radio the xs3 is doo-doo compared to the mighty R-1. :cheeky: :worship: :bow: But seriously if the synthesized module from the xs3 fits the R-1 then I would relagate the xs3 to standby mode deep in some closet. Come on now the R-1 has adjustable throttle and brake curves for goodness sakes!!!! :fro:

But in the end both radios will work just fine.
