NEED stick radio for cars???
I just tried my luck on pistol grip radios and it was NOOOOOOOOOOO good.
I'm turning back to stick radios but need options.
I can't find anyone under $200.
I need something with enough options to be competitive.
The sanwa exzes and futaba 3??? are around ~300GBP(pounds)!!
Are there any shops that sell them in US.
HELP???

Not a lot of surface stick radios in North America. Here are some low-priced ones, but i doubt they have the features you're looking for.

Look at the Spektrum DX6 6ch 2.4Ghz Stick radio.
At a street price of US$ 199 it kooks like a bargain to me, and you get the benefit of a hazzle free 2.4ghz system.
I know, it is made for park flyers and Heli's
I don't know where to buy it, but a Google search turned up lots of suppliers.
Here is a couple of links:

I don't think you can drive with that.
The right stick will drive to front and back and the lest one will go siteways too while driving,so...!!

I "think" it should be possible to drive with it.
one stick for throttle, the other for steering, just ignore all the extra channels.
Or you can choose to use it as a single stick controller....
The problem is, I don't know if it can handle things like brake mixing

RE: NEED stick radio for cars???
i am going to use the dx6 in my 777 next year
as for adjustments all I want is endpoints and expo
I will make the left stick springloaded on the gas and stop the movement of the other two channels
I did this with my 8103 once but do not have the heart to use that radio with a messy gasser
I allready got my radio box set up for two antennas
one going straight forward above the transponder
the other one is on the back going straight up
anything should be better than an attack two stick
