nitro truggy would be the class. Why would I need an antenna? Do they get further reception ?

And then you'd need to buy telemetry attachments like these

well the wireless receivers have a shorter range so on very large tracks there is a possibility you could lose signal at the furthest point on the track. However just being a nitro car won't prevent you from using it. So the wireless one will work you just need to test your range if the tracks you run on are especially large

482
I run the 482 in both my nitros on large tracks and have never had any problems, they are great, it’s nice not having to deal with the antenna, I run the 482 with my m12s, and I can get the telemetry for what my battery voltage is at!

What’s the range of the rx-482 receiver ? I bought new mt44 transmitter and it came with 482. Some says the internal antenna range is low. I have savage flux & gp 1/5 hpi baja. I’m afraid where they lost the signal.
thanks
edit : and which one is the better

Sorry to revive this thread but was hoping to get some answers on the range expectancy for the RX482?
I have it installed in a Tekno MT410 and it can make it about a block before I run out of range. Just wanting to see if this sounds normal or if I should be expecting more/less.

With my 482s I can lose sight of the car before I lose range, might vary depending on environment but it's a non issue to me.
There are some mounting instructions in the Sanwa manual which might be useful to check.
Good riddance to antenna wires!

I read through the manual thoroughly and most of the ‘cautions’ seem unavoidable. I did my best mounting it as far away as possible from anything that could interfere as well as as high as possible. Seems like this might just be the range I’ll have with this vehicle.
