Owned an original Spektrum DX3, DX3R, and currently a DX3R Pro. I've NEVER experienced a single glitching issue with any of those radios. I've also never had a range issue either, but I tend to not drive my cars until I can't see them anymore. I'd bet a majority of Spektrum bashers probably never owned one and still insist that they're garbage. There are many great radio choices out there, Spektrum included. Hard to go wrong with any of the mid to upper price range radios. Good luck with your decision.
