Lucky SOG, those radios are nice. You made out like a bandit!

I've seen on some site where you can get the foam. It is perforated, so you can tear out the patern you want. It is a lot cheaper than getting the "Model specific" cases. If I find the link again, I will post it.

Here's a link to one type of foam. The measurments are 15 7/8 x 9 7/8 x 6 7/8. The foam is partially cut to make custom trimming easier. Add in the price of a basic case....

The best cases I have seen are actually from Guitar Center. They sell them for various pieces of stereo equipment and are "cubed foam". You pull out pieces to form to the radio. They are aluminum and VERY durably. Not too pricy either...

I have a hardsided aluminum case that came with my XS3 from George. I don't use it so if there 's interest, post up and I'll get it listed FS with pic's.

If you want heavy duty padded cases, then go with Pelican.

Got the Radio today, and WOW!!!! This thing is like BRAND NEW. There is so many different features on this thing. At first, I thought there was a problem I was testing out the settings, everything seemed to work great, untill I hit the brakes. My servo was going spastic. Then I realized, it has A.B.S. lol There are 10 different pre-sets for the ABS, and I can also adjust the ABS Delay (how long it holds solid brakes before it feathers them). Still have to figure out some of the other features.

What did you upgrade from?? I have heard they are really nice radios...

thenewguy821 · (#15 (**permalink**))

I had the JR XS3. I've had to cut open the balloon over the Rx (waterproofing) to change channels, a few times. I figure it is time to go Spektrum. I was originally going to sell the XS3 and get the DX3, but I found the deal on this radio. A LOT more features.

yea that was a sweet deal... id like to have spektrum just for the ease that i dont have to worry about someone being on my channel.and thats one less thing to worry about on a race day.
