I have one.... And I really like... Way more than my Spektrum, it's small and compact, light and really easy to use.... For me to run dual ESC's and being able to do mixing and a dig I would need to spend 350 to 400 on RX-TX that would do the same thing.

Keep in mind... My RX & TX is not stock, it's hacked and firm ware loaded and upgraded VR and steering bearing. With all I have done to this... Still less than what I paid for my DX3E, I have a FUTABA PM-X and I would pick the GT3B over that... And FUTABA is a damn nice setup, But unlike FUTABA the RX's are 10 bucks V.S 90 for FUTABA, and I can run up to 8 Ch on the GT3B....I had mine built by Losikid. go to overkill.com that is his website.......... Hands down the best money I ever spent.

I think there are a couple that run the GT3B...... GT3B Hack Question and Answer Thread
These are hacked ones, but there are also stock ones being used.

I use the stock GT-3B. Works great EXCEPT it eats up double AAs. I havea lipo enroute to replace the AAs.

Good reason to do LosiKids VR mod, it extends the battery life a lot.

(The VR mod is replacing the voltage regulator inside the TX).
