Greetings,

I am a newbie starting to get into race quads and am trying to start my first build. I was interested in building the new Flite Test Gremlin as it looked like the perfect starter kit for me.

My problem is I have the Graupner MZ-12 transmitter and GR-16L receiver combo and I am on a bit of a budget so I'm trying not to spend money buying an entirely new transmitter and receiver.

Is there any possible way that I can use this receiver for my build? Can this receiver link up with a basic flight controller to enable me to run a quad? If so what are the specific steps I have to take in order to do so? Or if not should I just toss aside Graupner and save up to buy a Taranis or similar transmitter?

Honestly any advice here will be helpful since I am new to this hobby. Thank you!
