RC10GT Re Release Radio Suggestions

[jackdc100]

Just ordered the RC10GT Re Release kit. Do you guys have any suggestions for a reliable, inexpensive radio for it? I have been out of the game for a long time so I don't have a sense for what is on the market. Someone at a local hobby shop recommended this: https://www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas-tqi-2.4ghz-2channel-radio-system-w-tsm-micro-receiver-tra6509r/p453835?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAw5W-BhAhEiwApv4goPVbgKD6AaYpMOa-G5ZnA1fGNUFPWFOePNF47_SY0FyPF_u5u_NRDxoCssQQAvD_BwE . Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you want inexpensive, get a new takeout RTR transmitter and receiver off Ebay. Some can be had for ~$30.

I recently got a RC4WD transmitter, receiver, esc, servo, and motor for $60.

I still use my RadioLink(s) for everything. It isn't the greatest radio on earth, but I would run it over that Traxxas RTR Rx any day of the week.

Flysky GT3B. There are MUCH nicer radios out there, but this one is cheap and reliable. Bump up to the GT3C if you prefer.

The Futaba 3PV is also an excellent budget radio if you are ok with spending the extra cash.

Ok cool. I was kind of surprised to hear Traxxas recommended. Back in the day their products were not terribly well regarded but things can change in 30 years I guess. I just really want something reliable. I am nervous about nitro runaways: (Yeah I guess I was hoping for something around $100. I will check out the Flysky and Futaba. The Futaba stuff was great back in the 90s. Thanks for the info guys:)

While we're at it.....any recommendations on servos? Anything to avoid? You guys have been very helpful. Thanks again!

Savox are hard to beat for the money...a 1257 or 1258 works really well..lasts forever
