had to edit my answer because it's cheaper than i thought: http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__54822__OrangeRx_T_SIX_2_4GHz_DSM2_Compatible_6CH_Transmitter_w_10_Model_Memory_and_3_Pos_Switch_Mode_2_.html the dx6i is prob easier to program & there is lots of info online. Lots of folks use orange now, so tons of info on this too. I have a DX8 too & love it. This will take you a long way for 1/3 the cost.

I use the DX6i for flying all my airplanes and now quadcopters. It works great for me and you can save different aircraft you fly on your transmitter also. The DX6i was recommended for me from guys that fly all the time. Hope that helps you out a bit.

If you want to get into more complex sailplanes consider at least a Dx7i or better, the DX6i runs out of mixing options with the complex gliders pretty quickly

I have the DX6i for 2 planes and 2 helis, works great. I think it can store 10 models.

I use a spektrum dx9 but any 4 or more channel DSM2 or DSMX controller will work. I recommend the spektrum dx6i and yes you can buy through amazon.

I have a Spectrum DX6i transmitter. You can choose the mode in the setup ie. Heli or plane. Seems to work for me.

I bought a flight sim that came with a spektrum dx5 so I just used it. I would think the other answers given you would suggest that it would work fine.

Hello, Your transmitter will probably work, but you will need an adapter. That I cannot answer for you. I do know that my DX6i works with it. There is also an upgrade to 7.5 that more will work with it. Hope that this is helpful, Randy

You need a 6 channel transmitter at a minimum (spektrum dx6i). Although I would suggest buying a dx7s or dx8 to keep you good for the future. You also need a minimum 6 channel receiver which you can get bundled with your radio or purchase separately (spektrum ar6210). You also need batteries and a charger. You also need a 2650-3000 mah 6s lipo, and a charger. I would suggest searching for helifreak, runryder, or rcgroups at google. Search through those forums and most of you questions will be answered. If I were you I would skip this kit and buy the 500ESP or a 500DFC kit. Yes a bit more money but they fly so much better, although mine flew great stock. The big thing is that the newer Flybarless kits have less parts to break in a crash. Peruse through those forums I suggested and get educated. Good luck! This is a great, expensive, addicting hobby. Shorthand on what you need with my recommendations Transmitter: Spektrum DX8 Receiver: Spektrum AR6210 Charger: Icharger 306b (google ep buddy) Battery: 2650Mah 6s Lipo (google valuehobby or epbuddy) I almost forgot to add that you will need a power supply for yourcharger, unless you want to charge off your car battery. Check out rcgroups forums and under the battery/charger forum they have instructions on how to convert a server power supply for our use. I don't know if you can send me a message on here or not, but if you figure it out, feel free to contact me with any questions you have!

DX8 is a very nice transmitter which you will have for a long time. Purchasing through Amazon would be fine.

I agree w/ another comment about Throttle Curve; make sure you have the radio's parameters dialed in with the 300X. Also sometimes after I experience radio/ electronic anomalies I re- bind my DX6i w/ the heli just to make sure that link is secure ~ you also can look on YouTube & possibly see a vid with an experience similar/ ballparky/ or even identical to yours

I use a Spektrum DX5e and it works great with this quad. I was told however if if wanted to upgrade to the much more advanced quads the DX6i would be necessary. I hope this helps and good luck!

It should work just fine with the Horizon Hobby Blade 200 QX. This is a DSMX 5 channel, and that is all that the QX requires. Should work out of the box. I use this DX4e as a trainer for my kid with my DX6i. The 6i would be a great choice as well for that 200QX.

RTF comes with the DX4 transmitter, charger, and batteries. I'd forgo the RTF and get the BNF and upgrade the transmitter to the DX6 at least. It flies way better. More money but you'll end up doing it eventually... Also buy extra parts too...the skid breaks quickly and Scotch tape only goes so far...

Any Spectrum brand DSM2 or DSMX type TX will work with this plane. I would recommend the DX6i for a inexpensive introduction to a computer radio.

Yes, you can change the transmitter module in the back. It's an easy mod. The module compartment accepts standard "JR" style modules. You can buy modules in different frequencies or protocols. For instance, there is an module for DMS2/DMSX or one using 433 mhz for long range FPV purposes. You can also flash the firmware of the radio to make it even more powerful. I've been using mine for over a year now. It's a powerful radio for the price and will serve you well if you don't mind making simple mods.

Yes. The heli receiver is Spektrum compatible and your Dx6i is a great tx for this heli.

I bought my transmitter/receiver set on ebay so you may want to check there. Or check in with Creative Labs. Good luck.

Use a DX6i or DX5e. they are both good controllers tht are compatible with this airplane

With the FlySky FS-T6 2.4ghz Digital Proportional 6 Channel Transmitter I was able to change from mode 1 and 2 freely from the controller. I do not know what the receiver is inherently though. this transmitter actually has 4 different modes for stick configuration. all of this can be changed from the setting on the controller.
