Actually, PCM is a bit slower because of how the signal has to be processed (sp?). But it does allow for you to have "fail safe" which is good for gas racing in case your car looses your radio signal. I liked my R1, but I like my Helios better.

The radio is awesome and so is the digital servo.
Just want to ask. If I have a XS3 radio and a 2 channel receiver with s3003 servo would it work well??Or should I replace ther servo with a digital one?.
Originally posted by wolfeman09 I have a JR R1 with an R200 receiver and I have a question.
Is there a better receiver to use with my JR R1? On the back of the radio is says PCM Module, does this mean I can use a PCM receiver?
If so, which one? The JR home page is retarted...
Thanks....
this one
Overview
The 3 channel PCM R330S receiver is JR's smallest and lightest! Featuring S-class PCM modulation, it offers 1024 steps of resolution for the ultimate in steering accuracy. The R330 is for racers looking for premium performance and small size.
Measuring a mere 1.5”x 1.13”x .78” and weighing just a tad over ½ ounce, the R330S makes itself at home in even the most crowded chassis. Matched up with the JR R-1 transmitter, this makes for a world class racing control combination.
The R330 utilizes the exclusive patented ABC&W signal processing circuitry that racers have grown to rely on in JR radio systems. This circuitry provides crystal clear communication with extraordinary resistance to interference.

What are you guys talking about? The receiver is $129.95 on Horizons Web Site. And that is straight from the distributor. I am sure you can try and find it cheaper somewhere else, but Horizon is anal about their pricing.
if you don't mind buying aftermarket stuff, novak XXL work particularly well with R1's... at least mine. I use 3 XXL in addition to the stock receiver, and glitches are VERY rare. Nobody runs PCM in races anyway... a good FM Tx/Rx signal and combo is all you'll need.
Later,
Paul
