Noob time!

What 2.4 receivers are you guys running in your helis (Spektrum/JR only)? I am a complete newbie to helis, and was curious if you guys ran the AR7100R, the regular 7100, or what you are running. I have a JR 12X I will run off of with my transmitter, just need to figure out a receiver.

Thanks guys!

I haven't gotten it yet, but it will be a .90 size bird for sure. Possibly a Synergy, or Vibe.

If I had the choice I would definately go with the 7100R, and take full advantage of the revlimit.

Thanks. Thats what I figured I would get, but just thought I would check with the "pros" since I'm VERY new to this whole heli setup stuff. I had a Raptor 50 I flew last year, but it was all practically handed to me to fly so I don't know much about the setup stuff yet!

I've still got a long ways to go with the airplanes, but thanks!

I hope to at least be able to halfway throw a heli around eventually. I had a Raptor 50 I flew all year last year, but got bored with it fairly quick, and now I want something a little bigger that I can be a little more aggressive with. I would like to have a .90 size bird soon, but we'll see what happens. Just need to come up with the funds! :blockhead:
