Great review, I have myself used a NB4 for a few years and are really excited to get into the Mt12 instead, I'm looking at doing a side by side comparison of the two as well once I've used the Mt12 for a bit :)
I like your video. I bought one when they first came out with zero experience with this system. It’s not to bad when your doing the normal things, however getting into 4ws is a pretty big challenge. It was ok with me because I’m a diehard for 40 yrs and willing to learn anything new in rc. I don’t think these will really take off until us surface guys get a more user friendly update. It’s by far the superior transmitter for the money hands down.
Its interesting, coming from a mainly drone flyer exploring into rc cars, this seems so simple comparatively to drone rates and everything. A lot of drone guys will see radiomaster making a surface radio and get into it! Edge TX is complicated up front but after about an hour of youtube you can make it do anything that you could possibly want!
I was sure people would be snatching these up for the racetrack… not so much. I love mine though. The only really complicated part is when you need to start moving switches around and getting into 4WS. I still learned it but there is not way a kid will sit down and do that. The big deal for me was the quality and speed for the money. The only there transmitters close in surface is 6-800$.
It really holds up against the sanwa radio's. I use it on Pro10, touring cars and 1/8th scale racers. Receivers are small and have built in antenna's and go for 20,-. If you overcome the learning curve and give it a chance, you have a M17 spec radio (only without the programmable servo features) for a fraction of the cost.
Would you consider training us on the RadioMaster MT12…? I have one and I just bound it to its original RX in my newly built Tekno SCT410 2.0 that I plan on beginning to race at a track near me.
