Default DX3R receiver help and question?????

I have a couple of the 3100s but need at least 19 more receivers to convert everything from Nomadio to Spektrum.

What receivers are most of you running, besides the 3100s, and have you been happy with them??

I have been running the older 3000 and 3001 Pro receivers. They are the DSM and not DSM2 technology, but they work GREAT with the DX3R for a crawler application. I used the 3100 RX in my Trans-Am racer.

The Losi DSM rx's work with them too. I have one from a mini-slider I use to race. They are a little bit cheaper as well.

this rx works well. It is the same size as the 3000 but you need to insert the bind jumper.

I have the 3000s 3001s and the 3500s and I have one of the above.
They all work great but I like the 3500 for its size....and the 3500 uses a bind jumper....

spektrum rx's are apparently lined with gold, or gas. they sell for way more than they should, new or used. i dont see how i can get a spektrum ar6000 6 CHANNEL for $45 all day long at any lhs, but a damn regular old 300/3100 they want an arm, leag, and 1 testicle

Yeah, the Losi RXs were a lot cheaper when they first came out but they got smart and increased the price. They are owed by the same company anyway so it's no wonder they aren't worried about price wars.
