Usually you ask for opinions BEFORE you buy something.

It's a good radio and the range is dependent on many factors such as antenna position and placement, receiver, battery condition and so forth.

I have all the range I need for racing and rock crawling. I see no point in having a range where you can no longer see the model.

Either receiver is good, one has dual antenna and the other doesn't.

I got a 3pk magnum and love mine. I would consider the 3pks if I get a 2nd car, otherwise I might just switch transmitters between cars.

Use the same transmitter and either switch receivers or get one receiver for each car. The 3PK has a 10 model memory and the 3PKS has a 20 model memory.
