My 4PXR shows "Invoiced - Processing in Warehouse" so I'm looking forward to it.
In the mean time, I was able to fix my old 3PK so I can still use that with my FM and C1 receivers. (http://www.rctech.net/forum/radio-el...utaba-3pk.html) Not many views of that thread...am I the only one that ever had a bad Futaba steering potentiometer??

As far as I can tell, the frame rate is 6.8ms for the high speed mode on appropriate receivers. The only data I could find for the Sanwa/Airtronics radios was 5.5ms. I don't think I could feel a 1.3ms difference.

Is the high speed mode the compatible mode for the receiver that comes with the radio?

I pre ordered my 4PXR from Tower on April 11th. Tower charged my card Saturday and when I spoke with a rep today she told me my back order was in stock & it would be shipping out Monday.

My 4pk one failed... I raced 1/2 a season and $$$ trying to figure out why my center and endpoints changed during a race...
I also replaced the buttons that were failing.

I just received my 4pxr from my local hobby shop ,,,the things I can see so far are ,,, the radio looks really nice in the crome finish but it shows finger prints a lot, it's got the new soft ware 1.3 Version with racer mode, drop down wheel , alum throttle and other throttle mounts included , lipo battery and charger witch is nice . The manual is the same as the first 4px radio. All & all its nice but not for the price .

Vs 4px
Is there anything the 4pxr can do that the 4px cannot with a free software upgrade? What's the hype?

Nothing that I see ,,, it's a lot of money over the the 4px . But if u add the alum throttle trigger, life pack and charger , and Carbon fiber handle it mite be more. But the chrome finish does have a rich look over the black on the 4px. The jog button is red on the 4pxr

Think I just wanted something more current. My 4pksr only has 40 hours on it and do t know if either is worth the upgrade? If anyone wants it may sell it for $275 btw

I herd the r304sb are faster then the fasst ,, i had the 4px and only used the fasst r614ff and 614fs receivers in nitro buggy and Truggy with fast servos. I haven't used the r304sb yet . I'm going to put the r304sb when my etruggy comes in so I'll see if the r304sb is faster then fasst receivers.
