A lot of good information. Pressalltheknobs obviously has a valid point. My chosen transmitter is ACCST protocol. That limits my options. FDS also has a point. Perhaps a better one. Drop in a module and I can fly just about any receiver! I like that! I found this one:

It's banggood, so a month for shipping, that's OK. That's not necessarily where I'm getting it from. I just can't search around much. I'm trying to upload video to youtube and I want to give it as much bandwidth as I can.
What it means though, is if that is the correct module for my trans, it is less than fifty bucks. I gave myself a budget of $300. $250 for the trans and a multiprotocol module for less than $50 and boom! I'll have a trans that has everything I want and can grow into AND I can basically buy whatever rcvr is cheap and fits my current needs. How can you beat that??!!
The iRange IRX4 is basically only sold through Banggood. Yes you can get them on ebay as well, but it is almost exclusively sold through Banggood.
Do some more reading on that module. I'm not saying don't buy it, many people have them and love the flexibility that they give you, but as I understand it you might have to re-flash the firmware on it to get ALL possible functionality from it.
