Merry X-Mas to me :) - Eracer76 - 12-19-2006
Its not here yet...but should be here Friday...
I ordered the Nomadio React
After seeing and holding JT's React, I figured what the hell and ordered one,
since Ive been thinking about trying something new lately.
So....JT, how do you like it?
Good I hope, since mine is already on the way LOL
Merry X-Mas to me :) - UE-Maxx - 12-19-2006
Mine shipped today from A-main. Got it cheaper than what I sold my M11/Spek for. Should be here Thursday.
Merry X-Mas to me :) - UE-Maxx - 12-19-2006
I don't know if you go on the grid or not, but nomadio posted a how to use your React. Just a quick start up video.
It's also here, but I am not sure if you have to be a member or not.

I got mine from A-main too...shipped yesterday and scheduled for Friday delivery....I had a $30 off coupon code that I used, so that made it nice
Merry X-Mas to me :) - UE-Maxx - 12-19-2006
Me too. Which shipping did you choose that it takes 5 days? Priority here and it usually takes three days including the day it was shipped on.

I just picked UPS ground....because it was cheaper and I dont need it until the 31st anyway, since LH is closed this Sunday...
Merry X-Mas to me :) - UE-Maxx - 12-19-2006
Alright. May be able to race next weekend (not this Sunday).
Merry X-Mas to me :) - Casketman - 12-19-2006
I wouldnt mind getting one. I dont have a problem with how it looks. It seems like you either like it or hate it. No in the middle stuff.
But you can only charge it with the USB cable?
Merry X-Mas to me :) - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 12-19-2006
no its got batteries like any other radio usb is for uploading data
Merry X-Mas to me :) - Casketman - 12-19-2006
But it can charge with that too? Or did I hear that wrong.
I think I am getting a deal on a Z1 with spek. anyway. But who knows.
Merry X-Mas to me :) - Eracer76 - 12-20-2006
Yep, you can charge it with the usb also.
It can also be used as a game controller for your pc
Merry X-Mas to me :) - UE-Maxx - 12-20-2006
It just takes forever if you charge it with the USB.
Merry X-Mas to me :) - HAGASAN - 12-20-2006
I like the React, it is fast so you just have to make some adjustments on the expo. It was takes alittle more setup time with the servos too, end pionts and trim. Leave the dual rates at 100%. Also, take the USB hook-up out of the battery tray and put it in the empty module, you have to take the radio apart with a Star head driver(?) but its fast, like 5 min to do. You can use a USB to charge but that takes too long so i had an old piece of servo extension wire and cut the female end in half to expose 2 posts so the React male connection slides in. This way i can use my charger to do it. When and if you do this, just cut off half to open the female end, you dont want the posts to be sticking out with no protection, dont cut it down to shorten it just open one side. I also run the antenna inside the RX box, no need to have it exposed!!
You guys need any help seting it up just LMK.

star head driver = torx

What the heck are you guys talkin about? Link?
Merry X-Mas to me :) - FreeRideFrosty - 12-20-2006
It is a pretty sick looking radio. I didn't get a chance to hold it though. What is the going rate on one of these with the reciever?

Amain has it listed for 289, but you can use a 30 dollar coupon because it is over 250.
Nomadio said street price is around 299-to I think around 350. Most everyone is closer to the 299 though.
Merry X-Mas to me :) - HAGASAN - 12-20-2006
LOL, thanks DaveC, thats the word i couldnt remember. Ive had those damn torx drivers forever and finally got to use them.

Merry X-Mas to me :) - UE-Maxx - 12-20-2006
Joe, do you know what size torx it is? I'm going to have to pick up a set or preferably just the size/sizes I need.
Merry X-Mas to me :) - HAGASAN - 12-20-2006
I got mine for $285 shipped from http://www.davesmotors.com/store/product2031.html
type in coupon code " HBF " for 5% off.
Kinda crazy since i have had the Nomadio Sensor for about 2 months and never used it once, now its my back up radio, unless someone wants to buy it. Its brand spankin new.
Merry X-Mas to me :) - HAGASAN - 12-20-2006
Its a craftsman T7 X 40 part# 41680. Its got a little bit of play but it works fine, Craftsman micro drivers.
