Tamiya FineSpec 2.4G radio review video

Re: Tamiya FineSpec 2.4G radio review video
Just bought this transmitter at eBay from a Japanese retailer. It worked great as the video review suggests. But I am looking at getting a 2nd receiver (TRU-09) and could not find it anywhere online to buy. Can anyone advise? Or is there a compatible receiver from another brand that could work with this transmitter?

I would contact the ebay sellers with the radio set and see if they can get the TRU-09 by itself. also there should be a part# on it or the manual and you can search that.

Already contacted the Japanese shop that sold me the transmitter. Unfortunately they do not sell the receiver.

Looks like Tamiya may not be selling the RX separate so they can just sell more radios.....gotta make those yen!

Hopefully that is not the case. I wonder if there are 3rd party compatible RX units. Something from Futaba?pitstain wrote:Looks like Tamiya may not be selling the RX separate so they can just sell more radios.....gotta make those yen!

It is unusual to find Tx/Rx compatility, other than rebadged equipment such a Turnigy/FlySky. Other than that, the only ones I have found have been with RC cars, where the RTRs come with a Tx/RX that are just rebadged propriety items.

I have a spare 4YWD 2.4 Ghz I will test and see if I can bind the new radio to it and see if it works, if so those should be attainable.

Great. Let us know if it works.pitstain wrote:I have a spare 4YWD 2.4 Ghz I will test and see if I can bind the new radio to it and see if it works, if so those should be attainable.
Re: Tamiya FineSpec 2.4G radio review video
From a friend's contact in a shop in Japan, we managed to get the seller to send a couple of these TRU-09s via postage to us. But to the RX on my transmitter I need to bind it. Am having a little problem with that now as I can't read the manual in Japanese.
