The Spektrum that came with my V4 Talion never made it out of the hobby shop where I bought it. In all fairness I would have given them the Tactic if it had come with that. I have a radio. I don't need the RTR ones, lol.
What tx/rx do you use? I'm looking for a legit Transmitter that can link to all of cars, Trucks, Truggys. Any advice or suggestions?
Seems like a decent feature-wise radio for the price and receivers are only $16.
I do have a DX5r for my racing rigs. If I didn't have folks around me that wanted to run whenever they see me with a car, I would probably use it with my bashers too.
Appreciate the offer. You guys have been a great help and very friendly. But no spektrums or tactics for me. I cant risk another episode...good thing i have stuff from other hobbies im not intrested in anymore that i can sell for this one
I have 3 bound to my DX5C, $19 receivers.
BrutalTore it apart today....pics
Looks like it was set, which is good for you as it shows you are not at fault. Whether horizon replaces your truck is another question. As to why, who knows. Could be a bad RX or some interface, either way it's bad to have Spektrum in your truck, no confidence this wouldn't happen again.
I use a DX5 Rugged.
Did Horizon provide the parts through warranty?
No they said it must be my fault but i can send it into them for inspection to see if its covered. Not worth my time. I would rather spend $200 and have it ready this weekend instead of hoping they cover it and i would get it back in a timely matter.
Did you swap out the radio??
Id still recomend throwing away the stock radio immediately. It can tweek out at anytime
I did swap the radio with a radiolind rc4gs. Im not flush with cash or anything, this is definitely a set back i didnt see comming. With the money i spent i could have bought the tekno mt410 and electronics i wanted and never had this happen. O well lesson learned. No more arrmas for me. The fact that they instantly blamed me, shows me how their warranty would go down. Coupled with the fact they know the radio is crap and still sell it is a huge turn off for me. Funny how they don't have a checklist in the manual or anything like a, "before you run, we don't set safety's. so if you don't want your car to do wacky things and destroy itself, please complete this process that we should have done at the factory." If they at least had this, they could claim its not their fault. Being completely aware and not telling their customers should be instantly their fault and a poopy business practice. They have shown me their true colors
