Best RC car transmitter - wheel or sticks

What is better the old school sticks or the revolutionary trigger wheel transmitter...well there are different entry points with both types of transmitter.
From the RTR triggers transmitters which most people own to highly adjustable fully custom multi car transmitters there are different sets to fit almost any budget.
when it comes to wheel/trigger compared to sticks, it is down to personal preference. what is better the xbox or the Playstation. I could make a case for both being the best....

In the 80s all the way up to mid 00s always used sticks, it's just easier for me to work the throttle/brake with my thumb.

I've been racing for over 30 years, always with stick. My young fella has started a few years back, and I got him a mid range wheel radio, they were better value and I figured what he started with would be grand. Give it a year, he wanted to move to sticks, as it was more akin to his video games controller... personal preference, but I do see a bit of a shift at club level back to a stick type radio.

Mark thank you for saying it... I'm in to stick controllers... has anyone did a good video on brand & set up for on road?

Before I started watching the video, I thought about how I didn't see the wheel until after I had used sticks a lot. Wheel remotes looked dumb and I didnt like using them. I'm in my 40s, so I also assumed I liked stick better because that's what I started with. I haven't done anything RC in decades though, I am looking into getting back into it. When I've looked at RC toys in recent years, many came with a wheel remote, so I figured I was going to have to try to get used to them sooner or later.

I raced 20 years ago with sticks. When i went back to a model shop to ask if i could use my old controller with crystals they laughed lol. Technology has moved on! But still bought a new stick controllet

If anybody used to buy RadioShack RC cars they always had twin-stick even in the late 2010s
so the pistol grip is even foreign to someone who's young in their twenties

I love my Ko Propo Esprit Vantage! I collected the green, silver and gold...

I'm old too 😅 I do prefer stick transmitters, but there is not many with uni directional gimbals anymore...

Great video guys 👍 I’m old enough to remember it was pretty much sticks only back in the day 👊😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Have had few wheels but just can't get used to them.I prefer Sticks, Any suggestion on what to buy on the Market? Also how do I bind it to a rc car?

[BigChuck_]

It’s an age & diversity of collection thing.
Younguns are all pistol grip.
As age goes up you start to see sticks. If you fly quads too probably sticks. It’s a complicated algorithm.
Great video OLD DUDES!!

👍🥶👍

[Schmidteren]

Where can I get a new version that can go left handed?

[rmote]

Is there a video tutorial on how to set up an after market stick based transmitter to an rc car? I’m also old and I detest the wheel… but I know nothing of how to set up an after market stick transmitter or even which type to buy for what I need.

Thanks. Would you please put a link to dx3r transmitter. Cheers

[richardwaldron]

I'm an oldie, it's gotta be sticks. I can't use those wheel/trigger things, I'm too stuck in my ways

[ADVENTURES]

I hated wheels when they first came out back in the day but can't use sticks for the life of me now. funny I still use them to fly though 😀👍

[ripmax]

As club racers, which brand do you recommend? Is there maybe a particular model or brand which is good value for money?

I’ve just pulled the trigger and bought an SN-RC after I watched one of your videos 😊, but now I’m not sure what transmitter to get for it. I was looking for Sanwa but the prices were about €300..yikes! I can buy 3 chassis with that price😅

Can you make maybe a video of the best budget friendly 2023 radios to get for the aspiring racers?

[TheSwampChicken-II]

Stick transmitters I have ran pistol grip for all the time I've done RC!

[ocelee]

No answer but try to at least give some pros and cons of either. Else what's the point of watching this video
