Ordered flishrc cobra. Communication was great. Ordered larger batteries but they were the wrong size. Olly shipped the right batteries and gave a refund for the difference I paid. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks for the help with the order.

The seller knew I was after one and very kindly informed me when they came back into stock so now have a Flywing Bell 206. Fantastic bit of kit. Well worth the wait.

About this product
Description
Sanwa is the historic leader among radio manufacturers. At the end of 2024, the multi-world-champion brand unveils its new top-of-the-range radio: the Sanwa Exzes ZIII (Z3). Used by the world’s greatest driver, the Sanwa brand is a benchmark, and this new model will undoubtedly be the next world champion.
With its revolutionary FH5U protocol, capable of processing twice as much information as the FH5, this radio redefines standards of performance and precision thanks to its RX-493i receiver.
The Sanwa Exzes ZIII is quite simply the fastest radio in the world. World champions make no mistake!
We don’t really have any more information about it today, but it has all the performance of its trigger counterpart, the M17.
