Just looking for a good new system that has good range. Would this radio fit my requirments? Does anyone have this radio? How is it?

I have one on my FF MT2 right now. It's got decent range and I have had 0 problems with it. It has reversable throttle and steering switches and trim settings. Pretty basic, no bells and whistles. Durable design though, I've had mine for a long time and it has been dropped a lot but no problems.
You'd be better off getting an FM or synthesized system though if you have a bit of extra cash.

If i was buying a radio for 90$ I would be tempted to try something like

or
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...I=LXGAG2**&P=0

or similar.
Although i haven't tried either of those, thats the kind of thing I would look into.

For about the same price you can get a 3 channel FM Hitec

For a little more there is the MX3

If you have to stay under 90.00 use the Aggressor. You might be able to find the Aggressor SRX or MX3 someplace cheaper.

Deffinetly go FM if you can.

Well some of these have more than 2 channels. Would you just leave one alone and it wouldn't matter? The Agrressor 3 channel FM looks like a bargain.

You do not have to use the third channel. Just leave it empty.

I have the futuba also, and I have had no problems with it, mainly cause my truck isnt running. But I can turn it on and play with the servos if i wanted too
