rx482 or rx491?

I just got a new M17 that came with a rx491. I've already got an rx482 in my car. It's an 2018 xray t4 that I run indoor carpet with. Should I change or just stick with the 482?

Shouldn't really matter, unless you insist on using FH5 instead of FH4. I'll keep using my 481s and 482s because of their antenna-less design,

If you have a servo that is SUR/SXR mode compatible then you will get the most benefit with the 491 receiver and running those modes. I recently installed the SXR download and purchased a LP10HV-SR from Pro Performance Rc and am significantly faster then previous and since have outfitted all of my cars

It operates at a faster resolution and picks up your steering inputs at a faster rate on the fastest response modes giving more of a connected feel. My fastest lap and average laps were instantly faster
