I Use a Acoms Hyabusa Technisport..2-Channel Controller


Its Awesome with Full Digital Controls.. and Weighs about as much as the 8 AA Batteries..
Since it is a JR Controller and my Sprint 2 uses a Futaba Setup I just had to reverse both the Channels and it works brilliantly.

Compared to the Stock Sprint 2 controller,the HPI TF-3, the Hyabusa allows up to 20% more power to the motor.. Strange but true I have gotten at least 5kph more since changing to the Hyabusa!

Mine is orange and it glows because it's powered by nuclear batteries. Seriously I haven't invested in a radio, because I don't have the time to research them or have enough experience to even know what I want out of a radio. I use a 75mhz tower hobbies/futaba setup. It's smooth and glitch free so I'm happy with it. I don't race or run my car socially just in a parking lot or in front of my home or at the office

Hell When we organise meets.. We have spare crystals.. We help each other out to get drifting... I always have 3 sets of crystals for every meet I attend..
If we have clashes then we do Two seperate Heats and if they still clash a simple crystal swap solves that problem.

im running a spektrum dx3 2.4ghz system. good thing about that is that the antenna wire is only about 8in long! i can keep the antenna inside to keep that scale look goin. no long ass antenna tubes stickin out of the body.. thats just my 2 cents...
