| Cheap Spektrum Dsm RX
I looked all over this forum and even at hobbyking.com trying to find a compatible spektrum rx that is cheap. Anyone know if one exists? I either did not search right one does not exist. I built up a small sc truck for my son and I need a spektrum rx but I hate to spend more than the truck is worth on the RX alone. |

Well sorry for the rest, at least the dx3r crowd have something to cheer about, i hope they will follow with the dsm ground receiver shortly.

My LHS has the Spektrum ones for $30 or $35, then they have the identical LOSI branded ones for $45. They said there's quite a few people that come in and buy the Losi ones, just because they're putting them in a Losi vehicle. Oh well, their money not mine.

from what i read DX3C, DX3E, DX2S & marine DX3S should all be able to sync to DSM2 RX... but still only operate at DSM1 speed
