Oh no ... its very possible that Rcfreak isnt kidding since he doesnt actualy own a hobby grade Rc car?
I prefer Trigger controller to a stick mainly because when drifting your constantly tweaking the amount of throttle which is alot easier to do with your trigger finger than what it is to use your thumb on a stick. Plus the wheel on a trigger style controller makes the small steering adjustments your constantly doing a little more precise. Thats my 10 cents anyway
