Quad Receiver - first time?

Hey!
First time building a quad - the LHI 220. Rocking a Spektrum DX8, yet not understanding quad receivers. I ordered the DSMX Quad Race Receiver and I looks the same as the other remote receiver I was using on my fixed wing receiver AR8010T. The Receiver has three wires, and none of the inputs on the F3 flight controller have three wires?

So, what is the right receiver to use for a quad kit?

Any help, or links to help would be appreciated!

You will probably have to solder directly to the FC if it doesn't have a SpekSat port on it. Red wire to 3.3V, black to ground and the gray/blue to a UART Rx pin. This would be the same with either the satellite Rx or the Quad Race Rx.

Thank you - that works - but still running into issues. Receiver does not power up. I posted my issue elsewhere - hopefully someone can assist!
