what radio?

after getting stompted at the comp I have started to upgrade some parts. Iam running a tq3 and have many glitches with it. What radio are you guys running and can a guy get one on a lower price scale? My dig is up and running, I still need some tweeking

I'm running a Spektrum DX6, it's a 2 stick radio, and I like the feel alot better for crawlers, you can get a used one for around $100, but the new version of the DX6 is called the DX6i, it uses DSM 2, supposedly better than DSM 1, but you really wont notice a difference on the surface, unless your racing. You could also get a Futaba FAAST radio, its a pistol grip radio, and is a decent price, if you want to drop some coin on a radio go for a Spektrum DX3R, you can pick one up for around $319.99 on the net. There's also another option, you can go with a DX3.0 that is slightly cheaper than the DX3R, at $249.99.

All the radios I have listed are DSM technology and are all very nice units.

I like pistol grips alot better for racing and bashing, but for comp crawling the sticks just seem alot more precise.

Yes, but their a Horizon Hobby brand, JR Radios actually owns Spektrum, and JR Radios was founded in 1985.
