One of my absolute favorite shops - and I buy there for their awesome service, too . Luckily, living in Germany, I only need to get to 75€ for free shipping (with what turns out to be next day delivery usually, if I order before about noon or so - unless it's Christmas time coming up but even then, it's not their fault but DHL's)
In my personal(!) experience, nobody else quite reaches the level of service and helpfulness I have experienced from both RC-KleinKram and MiBoSport. Some may come close - but none have matched it yet (let alone surpassed it).

Looking to get a transmitter for my 1/10 buggy. Going to get the m12s rs. Not sure what receiver to get. Airtronics has about 16 different receivers for it. Anyone know which ones will work with the m12s rs and let me use its features?

They are all compatible cause the M12 series is FHSS1 though 4 compatible. In order to maximize the low latency: FHSS4 receivers like the 471,481,472,482 and 47T are the ones to use.

And in order to narrow these down further:
47T is only needed if you want full telemetry (with sensors)
471 has external antenna, no SSL support
472 has external antenna with SSL support (setup of Sanwa(only!) ESC-Settings possible via transmitter)
481 has internal antenna, no SSL support
482 has internal antenna with SSL support (setup of Sanwa(only!) ESC-Settings possible via transmitter)

Yep,...and the RX-461 as well...although you haven't got time to watch the gauge on the transmitter while driving I just like to have a needle going up and down the screen....

Is there any videos going through all or most of the functions on this transmitter? Got through most of the book that comes with it. Definitely didn't retain all the info.

Default $414 for new m12

Just seen m12 with 2 rx-481 receivers for $414.57 at Banzai Hobby. Is this for real, or a scam? Anyone use them before? Is the radio and instructions in Japanese?

Not a scam, it's real. Radio and manual in Japanese - you need to reset the radio and find an english manual pdf online. Don't know how warentee work is handled.

BTW - 1 week from order to delivery when I ordered a MTS from them and used the fast shipping ( EMS? )

Tempting. I wonder if this feels better than the mt44.

Banzai is for real. My radio came in English but the manual is in Japanese. I use the PDF to figure it out. At first it is a bit confusing, but after a while you get the hang of it. On the track it is amazing! Took two weeks to get my radio. I got it and two 472 rx's.

Banzai has an insane deal on the MT44 radio and two rx's.

Warranty voided if you order from Banzai and you live in the U.S., correct?
