A problem a lot of us Has .. I just went with the Radio Link. I am very happy with it and the price. Even though I really like Spektrum .. I don't like that they are stock in all the rigs now. So because I don't like having to change everything I have to charge special batteries and esc's , I will be buying kits from now on, and supplying my own electronics.. ;) All that being said I hear these controllers are pretty darn good. Thanks for sharing
I have a dx4c and love it. Has never given me any issues at all. I also have a fly sky gt5. And love that one just as much. If not more. For the money you can’t beat it and the options you get with it. But I am happy with both of mine. My seven RC’s are split between them. I need another Rc to make it even. 😁
Yeah bro so far so good with the rugged! Only thing that went wrong is the rubber lanyard connector piece on the top snapped off...but of a bummer but the controller itself is not too bad! 👍 Thanks for watching man! And hooe you've subbed to the channel 👍
@@joerutkowsky3261 thanks again brother! Come join our fb page and show us your collection! Rc Enthusiast australia & bash bros rc sandbox.. hope to see you there and your rc's
Do you know if you need to use spektrum smart lipos to acess all the features of the radio. Like if I use the spektrum esc and motor, but no smart lipos, do I get acess to stuff like motor temp?
The spektrum smart lipos only will give you the battery level indicator, if your using other smart spektrum gear will work with telemetry etc...stay tuned bro 😄
Nice bro! Lovin mine so far, how ever the front rubber thingy for the lanyard just broke.. what a bummer! Thanks for watching man, hope your subbed to the channel and stay tuned 🙂👍
Yes it should bind.. any 'SR' model will work the difference with 315 and 515 is the number of channels... Thank you for watching.. hope you have subbed to the channel 😊
It's been good and I actually like it so far, have about 6 cars linked to it and its nice and quick to switch between each car. The only thing is that it chews batteries! So may need to get some rechargeable... Haven't had a problem with range, seems good.. also comfortable in hand👍
So 4 controllers binded to all your cars, that means 4controllers can be binded to a 1 reciever? Wow i didn't know you could do that.... Thanks man hope you stay tuned to the channel 😊
I'm trying to make up my mind for my infraction v2...so far the rugged??? Looking at the dx6?? The new android version...HELP!!! ANYONE..THE GREAT THING MY FIANCE IS BUYING..🤣Can you give me your opion for the infraction plz!!!!!!@
Bro here is a vid update on the rugged hope it will help you decide(link below). As for the infraction, unless you really like onroad cars, and have someone to run it with, my personal opinion running by yourself can get boring quick! Also be prepared to buy a whole lot of tires. I would say plenty of rc out there you can have more fun with. For me the infraction is not my main car to run but its there for me when i feel like it 🙂.but its still alot of fun Hope this helps bro! Stay tuned to the channel and thank you for watching! ua-cam.com/video/sZ9BhaPP57Y/v-deo.html
I have the rugged and have been thoroughly disappointed by the controller. most RTR receivers are not compatible with it so you have to spend $20 on a receiver for each car. the range is bad so don't consider using it on your short course trucks. it devours batteries - just drains them dry crazy fast. the touch panel interface does not like my finger prints at all. I hope you have better luck with yours than I have had with mine. For me, the worst bit of RC "kit" that I've every purchased.
Is the one you have the older version or same as mine? My one has the updated touch panel.. its not the best still but it functions ok. Oh and thanks for watching bro!
@@davidrainey968 thanks for the heads up bro.. i will do an up to date review after a few months of using it to see how it goes... Stay tuned to the channel 👍😊
Is that because you have a hobby shop 🤔200🤑that would have cost atleast 100k if there good Quality or are alot cheaper little one's I'm in shock 😮 I have a big collection and know the kind of money it takes to have such a collection 💵💰💸
@@c.k.hobbyshop3351 so how much 💰 do you think you have spent? are they a mix of new and old are you into building kits? must take months to drive them all from first to last 👍
@@thomasthetankengine7153 its close to 80 thousand it takes about a year to cycle through but I run every one and most r tamiya kits the build is the best part 👌
worst radio i have ever bought , i love spektrum , i still use my dx3r , even with the issues of the scroll wheel ,its still SO much better than my horrible rugged , it put me off actually driving because of it .... the whole rugged thing is great , but the issues put me right off , next will be a dx5 pro hopefully that gets me back into crawling , but every time i even try to use the rugged , it just infuriates me , worst radio ever
Damn that sucks bro! Did you get the newer version like mine? Because that has the improved touch screen.. still not the best but better than the older one..apart from it getting a bit wet (its meant to be waterproof!!!) When it showered while i was on the trails and the whole thing went spaztic! It has has been working.
Here is an update video of the DX5 Rugged 1 year later 🙂

hi can I bind this to my existing sr315 receiver? or do I have to really get the sr515 for it to work?
Yes it should bind.. any 'SR' model will work the difference with 315 and 515 is the number of channels...
Thank you for watching.. hope you have subbed to the channel 😊
@@KingsRC yep just subbed ! 👍
@@Amircapturedmemories thank you!! 😊😊😊 And welcome to Kings RC 👍👍👍
Ok, I've ordered a RadioLink RC6GS V2, now how do I rain proof/water proof this? Thanks :) The receiver will be easy.
Not sure i havent owned a radiolink before 🤔
You water/rain proof it by staying out of the rain/water.
How is it so far, any good? Im thinking of getting one for rc adventure
It's been good and I actually like it so far, have about 6 cars linked to it and its nice and quick to switch between each car. The only thing is that it chews batteries! So may need to get some rechargeable... Haven't had a problem with range, seems good.. also comfortable in hand👍
@@KingsRC i trust you, mate 😀🤘
@@davecchio Cool bro! Let us know how u like it 😊
I have about 20 controllers dude. I use a Dremel to scribe the name of the rc onto the handset lol
🤣 great idea with the dremel! I Can't believe I didn't think of that! 🤣🤣🍻👍
🤣😂😂🤣
I have DX6R and Dx5c and dx4c and dx2e and everyone of my control is bind to everyone of my cars
So 4 controllers binded to all your cars, that means 4controllers can be binded to a 1 reciever? Wow i didn't know you could do that.... Thanks man hope you stay tuned to the channel 😊
You have the same problem as me I have no idea which controllers for which car cause I have like 15 of the same traxxas controllers ! 😂
Worst thing is.. you go out to bash or crawl and you bring the wrong one 🤣🤣🤣
I’ve done that many times it really pisses me off I need to get some new controllers ! 😂😂👍
I put a piece of tape on the bottom of all my controllers and write which model its for lol
@@TurbochargedHobbiesgood idea bro! Thanks for watching, stay tuned 👍
