hey guys i was wondering whats your favorite radio. it could be new school, old school, more than one?

[aconsola]

I've always liked the looks of the old high-end magnum PCM 3pb. Never actually had one though, it is on my list of things to eventually add to the collection.
The 3pg magnum senior is also one I'd like to get.

My current setup is a 3pj-Super with spektrum module and a hansen hobbies expansion memory card. It does everything I could ever want from a radio except for not having a backlit screen.

The radio I like the least of all is an easy one: any derivative of the second generation futaba pistols with the trapezoidal battery holder in the handle. Those things were terrible, hard to get the batteries in and out of the holder, the holder broke easily, and the battery door tabs broke of easily too.

here are some of mine magnum sport, xl2p, 3pdf... not my absolute fav tho. that is still to be revealed haha.

[GAMMACRUSH]

haha, thats funny you mention about the battery door cuz my fut mag is missing it. no doubt cuz it prolly broke like you said. =]

my xl2p has the habit of breaking the bottom out of battery holders too

i cant find a pic of the mag senior anywhere online!

I liked the older Futabas. All except for the above mentioned battery issue (pain in the neck!) I too have managed to break the battery door off of one of the three that I have, d'oh!

This one!
Was using it until recently, always got funny looks putting it down next to everyone else's brick with LCD radios at the impound at big meetings

I would have to say the XL2p being my favorite. I still use them on some of my runners. Next to that, the old Futaba Magnum Sr. they were hella expensive in their time. i have two of them now.

The old Magnum Sr. has my vote. I also have 3 of them with different tx modules and many old mini 3h receivers. I still use mine when I run my old cars. But I have a airtronics M11 for the newer race cars I don't really care for the feel of the M11 I am waiting for the new 4PK futaba radio to come out at a reasonable price then I think I will trying out.

i loved the old tamiya adspec with the timer on the wheel .

[GAMMACRUSH]

i was going to wait for some ebay auctions to go thru before revealing my fav (LOL) but if you like them theres no stopping you anyway. My fav radio is the airtronics cx2p

[badhoopty]

i really like my old futaba 3dpf, although my new react is growing on me...

i also really like the feel of the specktrum radios.

KO Propo Mars Ex1. I'm SOOOOO happy their new one is back in that shell. It's possible the best balanced radio ever.

I have grown an attachment to my 3PJ. She cost me a fortune back 5 or 6 years ago.
There is a 2.4Ghz upgrade in her near future.
