I can't find the 3PKS anywhere. Why not get the 3PL? The 3PL is an FHSS radio. The other one that you listed is a FASST radio. You would never notice the difference even if you were a pro, most likely. The difference is the price of the receivers. $40 vs $90. I use a 4PL. It has a nice big fat back lit display on it. But the receivers are only $40! It's an awesome radio. $250 though. The 3PL is about $110 at A-main.

Try them both on for size. The 3PKS might be discontinued... I remember my LHS had a 3PKS on deep discount just to get rid of it.. tempting but I passed. I have a 3PL and a 4PKS.

The trigger point isn't adjustable on the 3PL, but it is on the 3PMX and 4PKS. If you have large hands you won't find the trigger comfortable on the 3PL.

The 4PKS was also 4x the price..
