NOTE: The Airtronics M12 has been replaced by the Sanwa M12S Super (SNW101A313673A).

This is the Airtronics M12 FHSS-4 2.4GHz Radio System with an included Airtronics 92014 4-Channel Receiver. The M12 is equipped with a 4x higher spec CPU compared to the previous world champion model, the industry-leading M11X. Redesigned from the ground-up, the M12 is the realization of lofty goals to more than double it's analysis ablility and speed. Latency minimized as well as operational and innovative features guarantee the M12 as the new flagship of new generation, not just for Airtronics or Sanwa, but for the entire R/C industry. As the saying goes time is money and the M12 responds in almost "Zero-Latency." What is Zero Latency? It's a measured total latency speed of under 1ms. That's right, the latencey of the M12 radio is under one millisecond! What's more, the "feeling" of that type of Zero-Latency is 100% adjustible, allowing drivers to change their driving condition and feel instantly. No other radio has this type of connectivity advantage.

By far the best transmitter I have ever used. Had the M11 before this one and it was a natural progression to the new remote. I would recomend this remote to any one who is serious about racing and has the cash.

This is and update, sent my radio in to Airtronics, had a bad RF board they told me this was very unusual and even the I was out of warranty they fixed it at no cost,now have great distance.

This radio has alot of great features and if distance is not a concern to you this radio works great. However if you are looking for distance this is not the radio for you. When running my rock crawlers or mini8 works great, when out in the desert running my Baja 5b 430 ft top distance. Very disapointed.

Best radio money can buy followed by a big fat period. Ultra fast and precise and set it up exactly how you want it. Can't believe the improvement in my driving since purchasing this unit, it's worth every penny. Slightly top heavy out of the box, but much better than the competition and can be helped with a larger battery than the rechargeable NiMH 1500 mah battery that came with mine.

Been using this radio for over a year now, and I have to say "There is no better radio"!! Tried them all, but none of them even came close. So fast (almost too fast in some cases, if there's such a thing!!) and very easy to set up the way you want. Just a really good, well thought out radio. Period. Would highly recommend to anyone who takes RC seriously!!

I have the 4pks-r & M12.... I must say M12 its easier to use than the 4pks-r & I've had no issues. I like that all the extra parts come with the radio so you can have the custom feel your looking for. Man can they just drop the price on the spare receivers that would be great!!!!

This radio is without competition! I have been running the Futaba 4-PKS which is great and I thought I'd never outgrow. But this radio is far superior in operational speed as well as looks. I've also ran the Futaba 4-PL. It's so fast it's like driving my cars for the first time all over again but with much more incredible accuracy. I really felt the positive difference in my on-road cars (Xray T4, T3), crisp and precise. My off-road (Traxxas Stampede 4x4) took me back to when I first bought it with lots of fun b/c I've never had this level of control. I'm sorry to say I got mine through another site but I couldn't pass on the price. When you've driven with practically any other radio and then tried this radio you'll be hooked like I am.

I'd definitely recommend to a friend, but not a race opponent, b/c they just might win!

Airtronics M12 FHSS-4 2.4GHz Radio System w/92014 4-Channel Receiver
This is by far the best radio i have ever owned, I had a Futaba 4PL 2.4GHz S-FHSS, Spektrum DX3R PRO DSM2 and Radiopost TS401 2.4 GHz DSSS. It is so responsive and balanced. The RX-471 receiver is easy to bind and very small. There are so many options and features. And the race mode is incredible. The only thing I don't like is the battery needs a little foam or padding so it does not move and/or rattle in the bottom tray.

I cannot imagine a better radio. I started the hobby with the JR-xs3 and then went to the Spektrum DS3.0. This radio does not compare to either of these. The drop down and angled steering wheel attachments alone would justify my purchase. On top of that I get glitch free and super fast communication with my vehicle. When you also consider the programming features of the radio, the price seems cheap. I cannot speak for the competing models in this price range, but if you are looking to upgrade to a top of the line radio I say go for it.

Airtronics M12 FHSS-4 2.4GHz Radio System w/92014 4-Channel Receiver
Holy cow... what a piece of machinery! Granted this is my first upper-level controller, but it's leaps and bounds above my older Spektrum starter radio. The adjustments on this thing are all amazing, and all out-of-the-box. The only upgrade (I believe) is the LiPo battery--The whole drop-down mechanism and grip variations are included. Adjustable-offset trigger, adjustable spring rate and springs for both throttle and steering, and the pie-shaped wedge to angle the steering wheel away from me are what make this radio a perfect fit. It's hard to believe the quality of the steering feel on this radio. The steering on this radio has a smoothness that scream quality and precision--a necessity for racing onroad. Although I had to save up for a couple of months to make this buy, it was still a good deal. Buying it on Black Friday made it an even better deal as they threw in another receiver (2 instead of 1). If I could be critical about one thing, it'd be the steep price for additional receivers. Overall, I can't overstate how happy I am with this unit. It's also satisfying to know that I may never need another radio again in my R/C career.

Awesome radio. It feels a bit top heavy but I think it is because I am still using the AA batteries in it . It is very fast and feels sturdy. Best radio I ever had

By far the best radio I have ever used I've been in the Hobby for years now gone through futaba spektrum both 2 different models With this controller feels great my hands I hold the controller cocked angle with this ergonomical feel I have to say it feels great in my hand but that doesn't really matter I run on road and off-road nitro and electric and this controller is the best for them all with on the fly changing feeling for track conditions or gas and battery power I know plenty and I still look at the book once a day to figure something out or a new option or trick can say plenty more......+++++++

Very good radio, but not quite up to scratch when compared with the Futaba 4PX. The screen and controls are a little outdated given the asking price.
The range on this radio isn't as good as the Futaba, plus the general build quality of the Sanwa/Airtronics is a little on the cheap side.
