The most affordable 2.4GHz surface system Futaba offers, the 3PRKA is an outstanding value in basic 2.4GHz control, whether you're looking at it as an inexpensive start-up system or an economical upgrade for your RTR. It puts the interference-free dependability of Futaba FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology at your fingertips.Dual-Rate Steering — a convenient thumb dial lets you dial in steering on the go! Move it clockwise for more steering, or counterclockwise for less!Throttle Fail- Safe — moves the throttle to a preset position if signal is lost or interrupted. Prevents runaways and lost vehicles — automatically.Low-Battery Warning — a flashing LED lets you know when battery voltage is low and it's time for new batteries.The R203GF's high-voltage (4.8V-7.4V) design gives you the freedom to use it with LiPo and LiFe packs as well as NiCd and NiMH packs. It's ideal for FHSS systems such as the 3PRKA, but will also auto-adapt for flawless performance with Futaba S-FHSS systems.3PRKA FeaturesThrottle and steering trims & servo reversingSteering dual rate dialThrottle end point adjustment (EPA)Throttle fail-safe 70:30 throttle modeChannel 3 switchingBuilt-in antennaProtective coverLow-battery warningR203GF S-FHSS receiverOne year limited manufacturer. /li>Transmitter Specifications:Type: 3-Channel FHSSTransmitting Frequency: 2.4GHz bandIncludes: 3-Channel R203GF ReceiverCurrent Drain: 100mA or lessRequires: (4) "AA" alkaline batteriesReceiver Specifications:Type: 3-channel FHSS/S-FHSSInput Power: 4.8V-7.4VDimensions: 1-9/16 x l-1/16 x 3/8 in (39 x 26 x 10 mm)Weight: 0.28 oz (8 g)Current Drain: 30mA at no signalOperating Voltage: 4.8 - 7.4V (shared with servo)Battery Fail Safe Voltage: 3.8V.

Great entry level radio
Great 3 channel radio. This thing is plain and simple, easy to use knob adjustments for trim. really not much to say I've always had good luck with Futaba radios and this is no different, this is on the lower end of the spectrum so its a no fuss no bells and whistles. I have two an they have worked regardless of what I've asked for them. Pros: Simple easy trim adjustments no external antenna to bust up good range Inexpensive durable Cons: Lacks extra channels (for extra functions) no multiple electronic selection for different land vehicles foam wheel has a tendency to slip, might need to apply a dab of cement ... show more

Awesome product! Affordable replacement and a upgrade to factory rx/tx!
Review Image by Sean Snyder Sean Snyder
For the price you can’t beat it especially when the receiver you get costs $50 by itself so you basically get the controller for $20 and it feels much better then a stock traxxas controller and has adjustments for everything you could wish for right on the controller which can all tuned on the fly! And the range is also great, can control your car without interruption for as far as you can see and further. Has a nice short antenna so it doesn’t have to be exposed outside of the body where it can be damaged. Very happy with this product and it arrived very quickly! Would highly recommend. ... show more

Good entry level RC system despite a few nitpicks
Set up was simple, although I was stumped at first about how to limit servo travel to prevent binding, because all the other trims are under the clear plastic cover. I almost didn't notice the thumb wheel at first, and it has an odd name ("Steering Dual Rates"). Once I realized that mistake, all was good. The manual is well written. It works great as a radio system, with no glitches in operation, and long range. The throttle and steering are smooth and precise, if a bit cheap feeling. There is a switched third channel for lights, which I haven't installed yet. As other reviewers have mentioned, the battery compartment is poorly designed and fastened, and the outer two AA cells need to be pried out with a tool. Another nitpick is that the radio didn't come with a plastic tube to protect the antenna. The manual says it should be included. Without it, the antenna & lead seem too fragile to withstand much bashing. Overall, the build quality of the transmitter is very cheap. After spending $95, I was initially underwhelmed when I opened the box. But since this was an xmas gift to my son with his first RC car, I paid a little extra for a brand I was familiar with. I also like the smoke colored translucent door covering the trim knobs and switches, as it helps keep young hands from messing with them. ... show more

Futaba performance on a budget
Got this in a timely manner as expected. Well packaged without any flaws upon arrival. I bought this to replace a Spektrum DX3C that I had for a while and was on it's last leg. This Futaba left me quite impressed. It lacks the bells and whistles that some racers and enthusiasts desire but it sure seems to pack the renowned internals that Futaba is famous for. Great range, easy (yet simple) tuning, and fits well in the hand. I highly recommend for the price vs performance. ... show more

Great R/C radio
Very satisfied. Great radio for my 1/10 scale R/C car. I've had Futaba radios before and have always been happy with their performance. Highly recommend.

Great little three channel controller.
Fast shipping. I have purchased four or five of these over the past few months for all of my little RC projects. They work very well. The only problem is trying to get one of the batteries out once they are in, it gets jammed in there pretty tight but you can eventually get it. Not bad for $90 or so. ... show more

Perfect upgrade from 27mhz transmitter.
I bought this transmitter and receiver to replace the original 27mhz AM set that came with my Traxxas Stampede XL-5. Installing the receiver in the truck and setting everything up was super easy - about 10min in total. Just remove the two screws that secure the receiver case cover, lift the old receiver off of the double stick tape that holds it down, put the new one in its place, plug everything in and re-install the cover. Linking the transmitter and receiver was an easy process. Since the antenna wire on the receiver is much shorter, I trimmed down the antenna tube which also makes for a nicer appearance. For some reason the throttle and steering controls worked in reverse from the original transmitter, but simply moving the two reversing switches on the Futaba solved that problem. The quality of the Futaba transmitter feels the same as the Traxxas, which means that both of them feel sort of cheaply made. But I expect it will hold up just fine. I have not had a problem with the foam ring sliding around the wheel that others have mentioned. Overall I am very pleased with this transmitter and I am also enjoying the increased operating range. ... show more
