Lots of variables here... if I was still running other scales, I would entertain the 3PK but since they make Spectrum Modules for the EX1-UR, I'd prolly go that route. Never had an issue with my EX1-UR, takes a bit of getting used to but once you get it the way you like it, it's one of the greats.

The EX-5UR works if you're looking to just run ASF Mini-Zs.

I have had the ex-5ur and the ex-1ur and can say that the 1ur is far superior. Go with the EX-1ur as it is an excelent radio, feels good in the hand, and is very versatile.

First, it would matter whether you are left or right handed. If you are a lefty then the 3PK is likely the most viable ,economically speaking. The drawback is the fact that the 901SM module needs to be altered to function. It's not a big deal but it does require some additional skills.

If you are not a lefty then it really beomes a toss up so you should select based on hand comfort and balance. See if you can try out the available offerings to determine which suits you the best.

Welcome to the forums.

I bought the second hand one and the scream is a foggy. Not clear.
