Great. Thanks. Didn't have access to the manual to confirm this.

Default Wheel

Anyone know of a wheel that can be used to replace the stock one on this radio?

I have asked Desoto and Sanwa already... waiting for an answer.

I have not had the will to order a SNW107A30813A aluminum M12S wheel and try yet.

Whats the cheapest option for a replacement battery?! Currently bought a used one with 3200Nimhs and 130g weight. My girlfriend complains that lighter would be better. Wont mit going down to 2500mah and a Lipo if there is such a thing?!

Any 2s lipo or life battery that can fit the battery compartment would be fine. I just use a cheap china 2s lipo for my mt-s

I hate to be a pain, but is there any chance some one could link a battery on amazon that would work? My 48 pack of AA's just ran out. I am what they call country stupid.

thanks

Thumbs up I AM HANDICAP AND NEED SOME INFO

I have to use a special control setup and need to know if there is anything in the handle and if possible a picture of the inside of the radio so I can see if It can be adapted for what I need.
IF ANYONE HAS A OLD ONE NOT WORKING/BROKEN ONE FOR SALE CHEAP SO I CAN USE IT TO MOCK UP THE CONTROLLER SETUP THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.
Here are a couple videos of my current setup, I am making a completely new one.
THANKS
Rodney

Default Sanwa MT-s Set-up Wizard

Just picked up the MT-s. Wanting to know any thoughts on using the set-up wizard? Is it useful or not, maybe for a starting point?

Thanks,

For starting up yes it is useful. No point of skipping it.

Default MT-s Feedback

Just used my new MT-s and thought i would leave some feedback.
Positives:
Easy to work thru the screens.
I have small hands so it fits me good. I did add tennis wrap, just for a softer feel.
Trigger adjustability is good.
Doesn't feel heavy or cheap to me.
Seems to be smoother than my Futaba 4PLS.
Negatives:
Manual material is very cheap. Does explain things well though.
The AA battery holder rattles around inside the radio. Had to add foam to hold it in place.

Summary:
Overall I really like the radio. The response and feel is very good. The scroll buttons are nice and easy to use. The backlit screen is easy to read. Love the built in antenna. Had to trim my connectors to fit into the RX482 receiver. Pain in the A??. If you looking for a reasonable price radio that offers a lot of good features you can't go wrong with this radio.

Does the mt-4s have a faster response than the mt-s?

No, similar response rate. Only difference is some mt4s can use slower response rx
