I was curious what type of radios you all use for your Tamiya kits ? All of my radios and receivers are older futaba am 2 channel radios with removable crystals and I have both 2 stick and pistol grips and I have one older pistol grip Tamiya radio also. They all work fine for me I don't need a 2.4 radio and my older radios are good quality as well and I prefer pistol grip but on some kits I like using 2 stick still for nostalgia reasons. Also for motors and speed controls I always just use Tamiya motors and speed controls, I had one older futaba esc but it recently started acting a bit weird so I switched it out with a tble-02s which I have heard people have problems with but I have not had a problem with so far and all of my older Tamiya esc still work after years of abuse. As far as motors I like the newer torque tuned motor I usually throw that in kits now gives it a bit more umph than stock and costs next to nothing.

I also like stick radios, so I "invested" in a Futaba T4GRS . Not the cheapest system, but worth every cent. Basically, it is a re-packaged T4PLS, can handle memory slots for 40 cars/receivers, and setup lots of details that I'll probably never use :-) The guys from BigSquidRC also did a review .

ehm :whistle:



oh well those are more leftovers from collecting cars, the ones actually in use would be my hopuped Flysky gt3b's and some Spektrum DX3's
However the following cars all still have analog and have their ocasional run with an old stick or pistol Tx

My 4 ways are for the trucks, tanks and hilifts. They are hitech and 1 flysky futaba. The others are on cars or for spares for somones. I prefer sticks but I use wheele tx for the slash, TTgears and the fav. For my GPs I am still with a 40Mh saber and old futaba attack SR. Others take the dust

Used to have a similar collection but decided I wanted the garage back & it took months to get rid of. Have a few period correct Futaba sets in exceptional condition I've kept, a few new Spektrum DX sets that came with package deals. But use a Futaba 3PM-MX with a lipo battery & bunch of receivers. Could've upgraded but really don't see the point while everything is working, touch wood. The wife likes her Futaba T3PK Magnum with the same set up & I think that's one of the best that they ever made.
My other car is a Tamiya - bumper sticker on my van
