A lot also depends on what application.
Spektrums have a lot of problems with 2 Stroke motors (Bajas etc) as the Coil causes interference.
I still use my 3pl and 4pl but have to be careful (esp not to over push the 4pl wheel as the stops are gone), I would buy Futaba again but not locally, you pay the extra here under the premise of "warranty support" etc and really it's worth s#it, so I'll save myself $40-$50 and get it from the US and pay the UPS freight. I just bought my son an SC18 so my intention is to put a 2pl in there, but they are $99 USD plus say $20-$30 UPS freight or $165 locally, and $1.08 USD = $1 AUS right now.
