Choosing a receiver

[willheard27]

How do u choose a receiver? I'm very new to this hobby and I was hoping to buy one of the quick build kits. I have a dx4e transmitter from a previous aircraft but I'm having trouble finding a receiver. How do I know which receiver will work and which one is best for me? I looked and didn't see any videos on it but if there were any that would be great too. Thanks!

The DX4e uses the DSMX protocol. Any DSMX-compatible receiver should work fine. I use FrSky stuff so I'm not 100% confident, but I would suggest this receiver as a good candidate.

Thank you! Is there any way to find a list of DSMX compatible receivers?

Best bet might be Google. There are a number of aftermarket companies that have DSMX/DSM2 receivers available. Two that immediately come to mind are Orange and Lemon...

Those, and of course the original Spektrum products ($$)
