I love mine I use it on five cars race two to three class on a race day
and not one problem with the TX but one time the RX a 604 shout
down at the end of a run pulled in to the pits stopped walked down
when I picked up my car it was dead and then it came back on
has not done it sense and at one race it was 113 in the
shade love my 4pk

People may not like the size of the 4PK receiver compared to other radio brands that are half the size.
People could be experiencing problems with their 4PK receivers.
Or like anything RC...people want to try something new.

I always see them on ebay one or two at a time I'm waiting for a really good deal to buy another one but it is still keeping the value high so it will be awhile before I can buy another one. I guess I got really lucky with mine no problem yet on all of my 7 RX I'm using it on 6 cars and 1 for the Virtual RC.

How is Futaba's customer service? I bought a servo 8 years ago that was DOA. Took it out of the package and it was dead. Hobby shop told me I had to go through Futaba CS (don't think they were great planes at that point, but my memory could be off on that one). Called them and the best they would do was sell me another for $75. I paid $83 new. Thanks for nothing Futaba.
I have spent thousands on radio equipment since, but not one dime has gone to Futaba after that CS experience.
Soooo, is it any better these days? I'd be interested in some new radio equipment, but I'm not going to have that happen again.

Then again, I know others who swear by Futaba. Whether or not they dealt with Futaba's CS I do not know.

First off I would never go back to that hobby store if they can't atleast hepl you with the problem, if you bought it from them. If you bought it online goodluck on making them help you most mom and pops hobby shop hates that coz they feel that you are using them.

I have an SC8 which I've installed an onboard glow ignitor . I'm trying to trigger it on channel 3 of the 4pk and can't get it to work properly. I've read the book but can't find any answers. Can anyone help ?
