Would you say the Futuba is definetly the way to go or could I get away using the Spektrum ?

What about a gyro sensor for stability control is this beneficial for high speed runs ?
Spectrum is notorious for horrible range. Don't go cheap on radio or in the end you will just end up spending more money on repairs from accidents happening from going out of range.

Some people use gyros but most of the time they become excuses to why the run didn't go too great from their cars being to wiggly and driving unaturally.
