    I use this on a 50mph Flux RX and a 70mph Muraco. It works brilliantly. the gyro is spot on. the battery voltage feedback is really useful and the RSSI is great for 700m speed runs. you have to set the power specifically to AA in the menu if using AA's. Also you have to use 1.5V non rechargeable rather than 1.2V rechargeable NiMh. I use 18650 and 800mAh 2S. It lasts for hours. I asked Rlaarlo if it binds with HotRC receivers and they did not answer so I guess it does. It is just a HotRC CT-8A with a different badge. Added a metal wheel and it is perfect for me.
    UPDATE: Rlaarlo say it does not bind with HotRC receivers...

      Nice dude! I thought it was a great radio. I definitely should have read the user manual better, however I just assumed it would work haha 😄 my bad!
      Thanks for watch!

    Nice review seems like a good little package nice work Matty might have to leave links for a battery and some receivers or will it bind to any existing receiver if you have the bind plug 👊

      @@MatthewSimm oh I think it’s a winner for sure man the best thing for me is the 4 in 1 multi protocol. Even binds to dumbo receivers, I have almost all my trucks on it now and I love the edgetx operating system which is ultra customisable! Epic radio man couldn’t recommend it enough

    $40 for a radio that turns of after 5 min i say no not a radio for my liking.

    gt5 for my slash where i can use the gyro function if needed and 3pv for the race buggy.

      It really is unfortunate 😕
      If you want a good radio that can do left and right without needing to undo anything etc.. try the noble nb4, a great radio but it is abit more expensive.

      I run it and even in my competition cars now. It works great. Also if you had indeed did reed the manual you would have known it is setup for 2s battery. If you want to use it on AA you havevto change that in settings 😉. Now you did hit lvc because this radio shuts the cat down when the batt is empty. So no glitch, just wrong using
