No not the react but the sensor is what i was comparing the 3pk to.(react is comparable to the fasst 3PM) The Sensor does all that you stated and alot more like the 3pk does. I still havent made the order yet but will do so before tomorrow morning. I have heard and seen alot of great thing out of the 3pk locally and online and also read good things about the Sensor. Im stuck on getting it right now and its priced cheaper, but really, tell me what makes the futaba controller a night and day difference over the nomadio and I will have me a 4pk next month.

Im not sure how important it is to know how many rpms your engine is turning, and your not going to be looking at the temo while your on the driverstand. Might be a cool little feature to have if your just out chasen ducks at the park though.
The only time I use a temp gun is on the break ins. When Im on the track running, if its not running the way I think it should I tell the pit guy 1 hour up or down.
The 3pk holds up to 20 cars, or what I do, 20 track set ups vs the few that the sensor holds. I only hit half a dozen tracks, but why mess up settings at on track when you hit another. I just program in the track on another name so when I return, Im half way there.
The only biggest thing I can see between the two is transit time. The fasst system talks back and forth quicker than any radio out to date. Thats always changing though. It seems like a faster radio comes out about once a year.
I cant see you going wrong with either system. I was just sold on the futaba.
I do like the way nomadio has the web updates, thats a plus, but its still just a bit slower in transit times, and I'll take every .01 or what ever gain I can get.

The Sensor has twice the named model memory than the 3pk, 100Hz frame rate, other features, but the one thing that beats all other radios that Nomadio has on their radios, is the ability to upgrade software through the PC rather than buy updated modules like futaba, JR, and airtronics do. So this thing never gets old like others do, and i bet they will copy this feature into their radios in the near future. You can even set the controller up on the pc. The other radio manufactuers make great radios but I been stuck on the Sensor since the first day it was released.(when it use to cost $520) I really think its better and more than enough than what I need in a radio right now besides the 2.4GHz.

But back on top because i wouldn want the mods to shut down such a great thread due to us talking about radios. Feel free to make a thread in the radio section if you want to keep the discussion up Nascar.

Buggy forum has the same thing going, funny. Back light at night is a big plus

.
Its like the 21 vs 28 issue in a truggy. Wish you the best with what ever you get, but I did try and sell you on the futaba.

Now, I broke in my sirio yesterday. Hands down the easiest break in on any engine Ive had, and Ive ran just about all of them. It never stuck, only died once on the first tank and only used the heat gun for the first start up on tank one and tank 2.
I was hopen to run more today by mother nature has other plans and its raining. But I can say, with just 7 tanks in it so far, its a beast. Tops the C5BB, Ninja, V-Spec, Mamba and the dreaded STS.
Will keep updates on how it performs on the track. Should be a test and tune next weekend and then again next week, but for now its just ripping up the grass.

You did have me considering the 4pk but in the end, i put my order in for the sensor.

What sirio is it? Soon as some good weather comes my way i will continue to break in the 928 and keep this thread updated. Theres a fair amount of people around here who are anxiously waiting to see who it runs against the guy with the os28.. now i just found out it was a modded os 28,

no fair but im not backing down

This bad boy. Man, you guys with the 28 in truggies kill me, thats some insane power for sure. Please keep us posted. I posted the first review on the OS 28 and its insane just in stock fasion, modded, thats going to be insane.
The rb 928 is quiet the beast too. I know the OS 28 gets close to 8 or 9 min run time, RB hits the 7-8 min mark. Times will differ with drivers, some of us have heavy fingers.
Im working on a camcorder for videos, just need to make my mind up on what one. Videos this year along with pics of the action.
Keep us posted.

Sirio always make good engines so theres no doubt in my mind yours is getting around the track pretty quick. If you can get some vids posted, that would be great. I hope some1 who races with us will be able to tape some off the races. I gotta see if i can at least get a vid of my stock 928 vs. a modded os 28.

Here my complete truck minus the body and the rx being installed. Im going to take the proline body to the LHS to get painted today and then get more pics with it and the rx installed on the truck.

All i want to get now is the JR 9100T for steering and a parts truck, i can get the servo anytime but hopefully i can find a great deal on a kit st-rr before the summer.

Quick question, whats the difference between the extended kingheadz motor mount and the non-extended kh motor mount? And is one really nessecary or would i basically be wasting $45? I have the regular mounts and the k factory mount that goes around the engine block mounts.

I think the longer ones are supposed to stiffen the chassis a bit, personally, with that K Factory one, I would worry about the king headz ones, The K Factory will do a good job already

If you are referring to the king heads 1 for 45.00 then yes it is longer than the stock by about half the length, its suppose to add more stiffness to the mount area on the chassis, so far to me I can say it looks more pretty than the stock

and not to mention the quick change feature. I bought a second for my 5T which I'm running the rb c6 so I can interchange the os 28 and the c6 from the 5T to the RR.

They summed that one up pretty well, Im still running the stock mount. Matter of fact, just about everything is stock outside of the bce chassis. The only thing I would spend on performance upgrade would be the cnc steering knuckles. Those stock ones are junk for kyosho standards. I seem to bust the right side more than any other side so I now have 4 left ones and none for the right. My bros sp2 breaks the same side so he took my last right one.

Update....This sirio is hooked up. We went to the bmx track and it has some big jumps. My truggy perfomed flawless. Still working on the tune, 215 was the warmest I got it up to. We ran about 3 tanks as a quick shake down before we hit the rc tracks.
There is one section with a double double, will a three foot run to the first double, it jumped it and went off and done the second double.
My sons sp2 with the v-spec fell just a bit short on the first double but made the second. The cl7b has great off the line grunt and oh so easy to break in.
Were hopen to hit the bmx track again for another quick shake down, I'll try and get video.

With all ego aside, perhaps we might just meet at a pro series event. But to put one
