Re: Radio
Yes. And thank you very much. This sure is another addicting hobby. First there were the race trucks (not over it yet), then the airplanes (not over it yet), then helicopters (over it now but have 6 of them), then crawlers (not over it yet), NOW trucks, semis, and equipment.
I need help. LOL. Oh yeah it is all about the camaraderie!!!!

Re: Radio
Def some great info in here!! I have one question though Does the Airtronics RDS 8000 have a 3 pos switch on it that can be used for shifting? I dont mind getting a Mode 2 (ratcheting left stick) configured radio if not but i would prefer to get the crawler version if it does. the Crawler version has both sticks self centering which would work perfectly if i wanted to use a winch on one of them. Im looking at this radio not only for semis but for other rigs as well such as my 2 scale trucks and the Tundra 1 Tonne im starting the build of next month.

Re: Radio
Yes The RDS8000 does have a s position switch (I run one)!
Also, don't be too concerned about mode 1 or 2 as with a bit of tinkering on the inside with the cams and springs you can convert one to the other.

Re: Radio
5 position switch you say? hmmm perfect for shifting a rig...nice! The version im looking at on *** hobby is the crawler version with both sticks self centering. But now that i know its got a 5 pos switch i can def use that on semis for the trans and on my tube crawler for its dig. while being able to run the winches on my scale trucks with the up and down motion on the left stick and be able to steer at the same time to recover from getting stuck. Looks like im gonna be ordering one very soon!

Re: Radio
Sorry to dig this old thread up, but I have a few questions I would like to have cleared up. Can these new 2.4s be used as both surface and air radios and will the 92824 receiver supplied with the rds8000 radio work with tamiyas mfu?

Re: Radio
Yes the 2.4 can be used for surface, spectrum even advertises the new DX10 to be used for air, surface, and marine. The rds should work fine with the MFU and if you have any questions on how to get it to work with that radio PM rcfarmer he has good success with the rds and the MFU.
