Full Version: Spare radio?

Just wondering if you guys who really race alot or bash for that matter, carry an extra/spare radio in your pit box. It seems to make sense, especially if you travel to races or bash at places that are far away. I have a couple spare Traxxas am radios laying around, but kinda miss my backup XS3 I sold on Ebay after going the M11/Spektrum route. I'm needing to buy 2 additional spektrum recievers for my new Jato as well as my e maxx, so I think I'm going to order a DX3 from Ultimate hobbies for $209. I'm just thinking 2 recievers locally will put me down about $175.00 with tax, but a DX3 with 2 recievers is $209. Doesn't seem too bad to have a spare spektrum radio (and the cheap servo's) for an additional $35 bucks.
I have 2 XS3's, but it's because I know we are gonna need to race two vehicles at the same time sooner or later.
