Spektrum dx3c
 

Is it worth buying? I have heard it has poor range with the receiver that comes with it...is that true?

Bump ......any body?

It works fine. I have had no range problems running indoors or outside, with both the SR300 receiver that comes with the radio, and the SR3100 micro receiver.

I liked it so much that I bought a second as a backup!

Awesome . That is what I wanted to hear.

Thanks for the input

I have been using mine for almost 2 years now, have paired it with the SR300 receiver that comes with it, a 3500 micro receiver, and a couple of the OrangeRX receivers from Hobbyking without any problems.

It's a good radio for stepping up from a basic system, doesn't have too many features that can confuse people at times.

Cheers

Great thanks.

Do you guys think I'd be better off getting the dx3c or spending an extra $80 and getting the dx3s?

Depends, are you using it for racing or bashing? DX3C is a good quality radio for the price.. if you have the money and a serious racer i would skip both and go with R version.

Not a serious racer. I'm really a basher pretty much. Of course I'm going to make a track and race my friend, but that usually just turns into bashing with us anyways, lol
So would it be good for that?
