1:12 Hummer H1 G7+R7A TRANSMITTER RECEIVER SET

It's amazing how much FMS has put into this little ESC/RX, and the transmitter as well!

I recently bought the HMMWV from FMS via Amazon, and it's incredibly realistic, even the faux exhaust! I know that this ESC/RX is water-resistant, so I was willingly driving through puddles and mud no deeper than 3/4 of an inch. But... I got overzealous and drove through puddles that were deeper than previous ones. It would no longer turn on after a fifteen minute run of doing such. I immediately knew it was the ESC that failed because of my doing, so I ordered another.

The replacement is just as good as the original, worked correctly out of the bag and no need for binding since it also came with a replacement transmitter as well. The wiring looks intimidating at first, but it was very simple for me to correctly plug the wires into the correct spots. The manual for the HMMWV and the marked wires are a tremendous help. The ESC/RX and transmitter are well worth the money.

ESC/RC combo.

It's small, lightweight, and easily understandable where to plug in the connectors.

It is water-resistant, not submarine-proof. I carefully disassembled the cover and stuffed some cheap dielectric grease from Amazon inside of it until it overflowed and wiped off the excess. Since then I've purposely submerged the ESC/RX combo in dirty water several times and have had no issues into five fifteen minute driving sessions. I recommend doing such to any similar electronic if it's going through any type of moisture, of course, test the electronic first.

FMS has done an excellent job on this ESC/RX combo. If left untouched it's incredibly reliable and durable, I just put the grease inside as a precaution not to damage this amazing piece of work.

Even if you don't need one, buy on as a spare, you'll probably never need it though, since it's so good. :)

Transmitter.

It's very comfortable to hold, it's lightweight as well. I was concerned about how small it was whenever I first opened the HMMWV box, but whenever I held it for the first time it was perfect. Idk how FMS did it but they did! "A small controller that's comfortable to hold?" Would've never imagined that!

It feels like it's more than worth the price, the throttle and steering feel sooo smooth! As always buttons are satisfying to push, but sometimes you don't know if they work. FMS has done a great job of making sure the user knows if the button/switch use was registered or not. The transmitter has a loud, audible sound whenever a button or switch is used, definitely appreciated. I haven't tested the durability of the transmitter (thankfully), but it feels like it's composed of a high quality plastic, so I'm sure it could survive a nasty fall without catastrophic damage.

I don't see anything that could make this transmitter or the the ESC/RX better, but I'm sure FMS will! ;)
