Phend officially no longer to race Spektrum radios
Coming as no huge surprise given he used a Sanwa radio at the 1:10 Buggy World Championships back in September, Dakotah Phend has officially announced that he is no longer a Spektrum driver. The 26-year has used Spektrum radios throughout his professional career as part of his Horizon Hobbies package which are also the owners of his chassis sponsor TLR. Announcing the end of long running sponsorship, Phend posted on Facebook, ‘With the end of 2023 approaching so does my time with Spektrum. We have been partnered up for 16 years through thick and thin. I appreciate everything that they have done for me and the support that they have given. Sometimes a change is needed and I felt like now was the right time to do it. Moving forward for 2024 I will be headed in a different direction for radios and servos.’
