Not that I am aware of but I don't think you're going to need it. As it is the stock wheel placement is somewhat dropped. Besides Orlando, you're too fast as is, with this you'd be unbeatable!

[My problem is that there are no good sticks around with the high end features that you get with wheel radios.]

AT my club in Australia there is only one person who uses a stick radio that is competive and he uses a DX6

Got to 'fondle' one today.. And you are correct... The ERGONOMICS are GREAT as is!!.. Plus the handle is a lil wider than most others.. Perfect for my orangutan-like mits..

Hmmm .. I would like to be un-beatable this year..

I thought you had checked mine out at the Nats? Weird.

KThatcher, there is no ABS function.

OSherman would you say the handle is too wide for a 12 year old?

Hard to say.. I would think anyone would be able to manage.. Just depends on what is comfortable to you/them..

I currently have the 3PK.. Had to wrap the handle with Hockey Tape a few time to bulk it up some.. And it still feels 'weird' in my hands.. The DX3R just seems to 'fill the palm' better than my 3PK. Will still probably wrap the DX3R a bit for bulk..

But to answer your question.. He/She/You should be fine.. It's not anything out of the normal.. Just a slightly different contour/shape that feels better to me.. Lil wider in the palm..


hope this helps
