Who running them and which one? I've had 9-5th scales i run the futaba 3pm 2.4ghz i use to run the 3pk 2.4ghz on r603fs the one with the dual antennas. I never thought about getting one till now. Its going to cost me a pretty penny to get them for all my cars. Are they worth it???

Perhaps just get one and transfer it?


So you had 9 cars with 9 different recievers? They are like $100 ea?! That in itself would be exxy!!

your taliking about kill switches, like pico's? i have 3 rigs. had 2 kill switches, one got wet, so now i only have 1 left in my on-road MT. most usefell if you have servo problems at WOT. range is hardly ever an issue anymore. they are advisable. i don't have them in all my rigs becouse..... uhm, becouse im lazy? :D

I voted run them on all my cars. I run the Pico kill switch on all my gas cars, I personally wouldn’t run my gassers without it. Here’s a funny story, it’s only funny because I was able to kill the engine, I started up my Cleon for the first time and I was letting it idle in the driveway when my throttle/brake servo decided to act up on me and go to full throttle. Now after my eyes got big, my mouth said F##k and the scenario of my Cleon shooting off into the sunset to slam into who knows what I hit the kill button on my transmitter. The moral of the story is DON’T RUN WITHOUT ONE.

I would suggest them on all 5th scales. This Sunday a buddy submarined his FG Comp 4x4 into a drainage ditch cause his MX3 went haywire. I'm sure he can contest to how much time and money he would have saved if he had a killswitch.
