Crawler Canyon Quick(re)view: Vanquish VT-1 4-channel radio

Yep, this is an RTR radio, not the type of thing we ordinarily test. But these range in cost from cheap to free, so why not take a look at it?

This is the Quickview of the Vanquish VT-1 transmitter and VR-1 receiver combo. Which I mean, you gotta use together.

Great video on the radio. I don't know if you remember the timing of me getting a hold of you but I couldn't get rid of that radio fast enough. Happy it arrived in working order.

The nice thing with these Turbo Racing radios, other than being cheap, is being able to take off the handle. Makes it a lot easier to put in a backpack or the like, and takes up less space.

I think it has a quality feel and works with my AGFRC specific edition servos.

I've been using an SLT3 for ages for my Sendero 😂. I ditched the GT5 for it because my Sendero has a winch, and f--orget trying to use a fast winch on a 3-position switch. You can actually set end points on the SLT3 and the thumb toggle on the grip is perfect for winching. Honestly I'm glad to learn the RTR VP radio is pretty good! Even having digital trim is nice because I throw my TQi radio in a backpack and my TRX4 is doing circles because steering trim got knocked silly in the bag

I liked it. 👍 you can’t please them all, more than likely they will still com back. Great work Mr. Canyon

I would have never thought really about the spring tension of the thumb knob I do know it sucks someone with very muscle-bound thicker hands for me to be able to reach stuff like my hand is super thick right there by thumb be able to reach the thumb will can be a pain in the ass sometimes

I love my vanquish electronics combo in the 10 pro, what little testing I've done with it seems to be a good fit, I think for my parts bin truck it would be a better option controller wise because it's just built with extras but I'm considering putting those parts in a wraith 1.9.

That’s an interesting servo conundrum there 🤷🏻‍♂️. Literally like a typewriter lol

[Brian_Mowry__BMOW]

Not a bad looking radio. Nice to see an RTR come with something that can be used. Not sure if I'll try one since you now have me hooked on the Radiolink RC4GS!

Didn't Josh say it was a Turbo Racing transmitter when talking about it on the Pheonix RTR launch on the livestream with Matt?

Interesting that the servo isnt happy with the VT-1 but works on the RC4, The RC4 wouldnt be any more precise than the VT-1 as the RC4 will be 14ms and 2048 resolution, no idea on the VT-1 but shouldnt be any lower.

Wagwan Mr Canyon, av you ever thought about doing a live be interesting 🤔

[StinkyColas]

Turbo Racing P32, they are $30 haha. I like my Vanquish transmitter enough I got more receivers.

I’m working on the 1.9 bead lock steering wheel now 😂

[pongasiong]

how much voltage can the receiver take?
