Yup. I only trust my cars to the Futaba radios. Now Im using the 3PK with the Fasst module. I trust this system all day. To put it in prespective, I can take my 1/5 scale sportline with a white body in the day time, as far as I can see it and still have total control of it. I tested this a few times for high speed run and I take it so far that I cant even tell which way they car is facing. Needless to say, that many times I've had to walk to it because when I think its facing foreward and pull the throttle, it just gets further away. If I had to guess, I'd say the fasst has more than a 1/4 mile range. Thats easily 1300 feet or more than 4 football fields.
Which is more then almost anyone would need in both directions to get to the 100mph mark! I have never actually had mine that far away from me yet, but i have a feeling that sometime this spring/summer i am gonna have it that far tryin to get into the 100mph club
