micro-t esc w/ xmod radio...and a few Q's

can i use the micro-t esc and receiver combo with my xmod controller, i know this sounds like a stupid question. but i want to be 100% that they work. i suppose it does, since the crystal is the only difference, but better be safe than sorry.
also, how proportional is the micro-t? is it a 3 step? is it jumpy? does it have finnesse or its just a floor it type of deal?
i wanted to use micro-t electronics in my ssmt to make it propo since iwaver boards are gone.
so, can anyone help me out with this?
thanks,

-Alpha

While the crystals might be interchangeable...You can NOT use the Xmods controller!! The XMods is NOT a fully proportional vehicle, and hence the controller works only in the manner specific to the XMods.

The Micro-T, on the other hand IS a fully proportional vehicle! You can use ANY "normal" 27MHz Transmitter with it (other than the XMods transmitter, as stated).

If you have any Mini-Zs, the Perfex Tx will work. Or if you have any iWavers, that Tx would work too. Again, any 27MHz would work.

See, that wasn't a stupid question after all!

where to find?

@ namuna:
where can i find the radio, crystals, servo, and board?
at atomicmods, they don't carry the radio... and the board doesn't have the servo. what other radio and board can i use that won't cost be anything above $40??
also, do you think this is a good esc for an ssmt 1/24 crawler? as long as i can go slow and set up the trim im cool...
thanks,

Killer Hobbies has a good selection of Micro-T parts:

...But, there just AIN'T no way you're going to get the Radio, crystals, servo and board for $40

should i go with this micro-t then?

what do you think i should do then?
stick to my original plan and dish out the extra money? i mean, i don't really need the servo right?
for $70...i am not so sure anymore, could i find propulse electronics for that price?
what else could i find for around $40-$50?
i don't want this project to top $100-$120 since it is what a a-tech mini monster would cost me....
do you think i could find some propulse electronics or something? i might buy a pair of those...one as a parts truck and the other to build, and take the esc/radio out of one....i don't know.
does anyone sell replacement parts for the propulse? how much would those cost?
thanks,

I can confirm the the xmod crystals work with the micro t receiver and radio.
