Default New 4pk super

So what is the difference, same battery same 2048 speed same battery same wheel. The only difference I can see is the new jog which has to be better and the new receiver. Is there any advantage or is it just a slight update to fix the small problems that exist with the old one. I have the original and just wondering what the deal is.

I know for Cralwers, it has a new display for dual servo mixing. Here's a picture of that feature:



I had found a list of specific updates yesterday compared to the previous 4PK but now I can't seem to find it at all . . . if I can locate it I will post it.

Thanks

Yeah, you can really only go up in quality from the original 4PK jog wheel. What a terrible design. It's the only thing I dislike about my 4PK.

Thanks, put an order in with my LHS. They have had them on order for a while I guess. So, hope to see one soon.

I actually had one, "had" being the key word there. The thing was junk. It would randomly go out of bind, channels would randomly stop working. Basically it took me out of racing twice and I'd had enough. Luckily I got rid of it while it was still worth something. Went back to my 3PK and never looked back, 100% reliable.

It had lots of neat bells and whistles, but not being able to steer or control your car is a slight problem.
