Sofar this is the only radio I've owned, and I'd have to say that it is a good solid radio. It doesn't have anything special, no bells and whistles, but it performs the way you'd expect a radio to. I haven't noticed any glitching within a 3/4 block radius, but after that you can't see the car anyways. Excellent bashing radio. :D

It's an ok radio... but it doesnt have the steering adjustment to adjust over and under steer... unless you just a radio to bash with your car... then it's a fine radio and assuming you only need one servo then ya that's cool too :cool:

Hmm i dont recall any radio bein made of metal... ya it a plastic but has a rubber grip feel which is good... but if you squeeze the trigger hard and hear a creeking sound... :eek: oh man your squeezing too hard... stop choking me is what the radio would say instead of moving your car lol :D

The only thing about it I dont like is the knobs to adjust trim. Make sure to mark where the knobs should be, or elseyou will keep having to adjust trim.

I just opened mine up, I payed 70 for it and just baught it for the Xtals and Batery box. It feels very solid and "comfy" bullfrog. If you want mine is NIB with the 10 dollar rebate, and 2 servos only missing crystals. Crystals are 9.99 @ king hobby for futaba ones.

I bought one for my RS4 2, and its really nice. Its not high end by any means, but it does the job very well. Its very comfortable, especially being that I've got nice sized hands. It'll get ya going for whatever your need is.
