You have to be careful with that because if you change out controllers too often, you will be stuck with just a single stick controller, in your hand, while staring at the other controllers you've been browsing on your phone.

To date; I've successfully sourced authentic FlySky FGR4S V2's from Ebay, Amazon, and Aliexpress without issue.

If you could release antenna-less receivers and offer low latency I think that will be the main selling point for RC racers.
Well, answer to my own question. It seems that new antena-less enhanced receivers are on the way.

hotrod306 asked a question. RazorRC gave a simple, but honest, answer. Just because you didn't like the answer he gave does not mean his what was incorrect. The question was asking for answers that were of a "personal opinion", and a "personal opinion" answer is exactly what was given.

any thought would be great
I've never owned the 4PM, or 3PV, but I do own the 7PX, which is fairly similar to the 4PM. I also own the Noble NB4 (mostly the same as the Noble Pro, but work a few minor differences. Not that it's part of your question...but, like many in here, I also own a few other radios, including the somewhat-recently-released Radiolink RC8X (which I Believe RazorRC also owns).

The build quality of all three is pretty equal, with the RC8X being of just slightly lower quality. The functionality of all three is also pretty equal. Each of them does have "a few tricks up its sleeve" that the other two don't have...but, overall, they are fairly equal to each other. The biggest differences between them is the UI. Although laid out in completely different ways, the 7PX & RC8X share a lot of similarities in their interface, while the Noble NB4/Pro have a more graphical interface. If I were to make a comparison, I'd say the Noble NB4/Pro has a very Android/iOS-like interface, while the 4PM & RC8X have an interface reminiscent of the old graphical interface texting phone (ie. cell phones just before the introduction of Android & iOS).

Personally, I think all three are great. Truth is, there is NO "one radio to rule them all"...especially the new RadioMaster MT12 (don't ask...but, I will say I'll be avoiding it). RC radios are a very 'personal' thing...some will tell you Futaba is the best, others will say Spektrum is the best, others will say Sanwa/Airtronics. The point is, what works "best" for one person might not work for another. The ONLY way to determine of any particular radio 'works' for you is to try it. It's also good to have more then one radio. That way, you can loan one to a friend, and RC together. Another reason would be to have a "rescue boat" on a radio not used by other RCs (for, that would be my FlySky GT3C (tho, I am considering switching it to something different).

Best suggestion I can give is, find someone at your local track/hobby shop who owns a Noble NB4/Pro, and all to try it out. Only then will you know if it's 'right' for you.

They are two different versions - Noble NB4, or Noble Pro. There is no "NB4 Pro".

If the manufacturer themselves gets a little loose in how they call it, I wouldn't stress over this:

I decided to make a video about the hidden buttons on the NB4 and the issue I had that caused me to find them. I've seen other people with similar issues and thought it would be nice to get the info out in video form to help anyone else who might need to know:

Good, and helpful, info regarding the right-side button. Have you considered emailing FlySky, and asking them about the left-side button. Normally, a company might be reluctant about providing such info...but, if you explain you already know about both buttons, and know what the right-side button does (essentially, a "soft reset"), then they might be more willing to share what the left-side button is for. In contacting them, you might even mention your video related to the right-side button (and, possibly, provide them the link to the video).

True, they could tell you they don't give out such info...but, considering you already discovered the buttons, and know the right-side use, that give you an advantage (compared to anyone else contacting them, and asking for the info) to obtaining (and, of course, sharing) such info. It's worth trying.

A "quick Google search" will easily show you that the Noble NB4 & Noble Pro are two different radios. There are several differences betwen the two, which you can search out on your own...but, in actual use, both are equally good. If you want the advantage of more customization, plus all the extras (including a case), then the Noble Pro is for you...and, if you want almost all of the same functions, don't mind having to find your own case, and want to save a considerable amount of money, then the Noble NB4 is for you. It's that simple.

I believe what I meant is different than what you're saying. The names can be google to buy them like I said
Because u can go to hobbyking.com and see it say nb4 pro so now what?
Now if u would have said all the difference like u said to me I might not have put down input but u can see hk puts it under noble4 pro
