Joshua Bardwell on Youtube is my starting point.
Receivers are cheap, so you should concentrate on what transmitter you can afford/want first and then get a matching receiver. If you are building a small 3d printed drone the new style
CrazyBee F4 boards and derivatives are an excellent combined choice for the pric, there’s lots of frame designs that work with them and 1104 or 1105 motors with 65mm 2 blade props work well with them. There’s a ton of makers doing similar and better boards in the same style, with or without inbuilt receivers. The class of drone they are commonly in is called Toothpick class, there’s lots of builds out there.
The Jumper T12 works with almost any receiver, FRsky make the most commonly used Quad receivers, theirs are small and work pretty well. Jumper has a multi protocol module included with it to enable you to bind to all types of receiver. Otherwise the description of the transmitter has the receiver protocol. For example Spektrum uses DSMX.
If you don’t have a multi protocol module then you can’t bind to other companies receivers unless they are made to work with the TX protocol. For example there’s a couple of companies making DSMX receivers even though Spektrum “own” that protocol.
There’s a good thread
here about transmitters, read that too.
