RE: Lets see those sensors!
In this thread, you can see the picture you are asking for
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3266603/tm.htm
My Sensor is a bit higher than my Graupner/JR C4Race(AM), but also lighter and way more advanced. The additional hight is due to the LCD Display.
It is VERY nice to with the short antenna on the Sensor, no more Antenna fighting when bashing
I am only going to use my Sensor for bashing. Racing with only 2 cars isn't exactly exiting....(there is only 2 FG off-roaders within 500km from where I live)
I find that the Sensor is extremely easy to use, and to setup.
The only addition I am getting to my FG, is an Engine Failsafe, that shuts the Engine down in case of low bat, lost signal, or when pressing the Shift Button. It also works in case of a broken battery wire.

RE: Lets see those sensors!
lol antenna wars
but i have seen that picture but it's not very good because of the angle it looks like 2 times as big
is it really more comfortable to use?

RE: Lets see those sensors!
For me it is a lot more comfortable to use.
If you go to the [link=http://www.nomadio.net/default.asp?ilevel1=2&iLevel2=6]Sensor Homepage[/link], then you can see a drawing of the Sensor put side by side to a couple of its competitors.
What you can't see on the drawing is that the sensor is 20-50% fatter than a standard RC Unit.
I will see if I can remember taking some pictures of my Sensor ext to the old Graupner/JR C4Race, that it replaced.
The only tiny little problem I have with the size of the Sensor is when I am walking towards where I am going to run my car.
With my old system I could run the car slowly with one hand. With the Sensor I cant reach the steering wheel, with my thump, when I push the trigger. I need to use two hands, and that makes it a bit harder to walk with the car and the toolcase+fuel.
BUT: When I am driving, I really like the way the Sensor has angled its steering wheel.
