Status: offline 		I am looking to upgrade my radio. I am looking for a mid range FM with at least 3 model memory. The three I am looking at are the Futaba 3PDF, Airtronics MX-3 and JR XR3i. All appear to be very similar in features and price. I know this is a very subjective questions but I would like to get your imput on the advantages and disadvantages of each. I have read reviews and looked at the manuals on each and that gets really confusing ... All of these are more radio than I need right now but I am hoping my skills will grow into the one I choose. Thanks for your help.

Status: offline 		I just got a JR XS3 (same as XR3i but with synthesized channels).

so far I'm very happy with it. Lots of adjustments and not too expensive. I'm not sure what the XR3i costs, but the XS3 cost me 199 - and I never will have to worry about frequency conflicts again .

The JR also came with some nice servos - there is a plastic gear servo for throttle (if you need it) and a metal gear servo for steering with lots of torque.

Good luck - let us know what you decide.

Status: offline 		You might want to check out the new Hitec Aggressor CRX. It has way more features than any of the radios listed and will sell for about $200 when it hits the shelves next week.
