Best selling RC receivers
Here's a ranking of the best products in this category. To give you a quick overview, we've also added some key information about the products.
1. Futaba R3008sb
The Futaba R3008SB is a compact and lightweight T-FHSS 2.4 GHz receiver with an integrated telemetry function. Its ultra-slim design makes it ideal for models with narrow fuselages.
Up to 10 programmable S.BUS servos or peripheral devices such as gyros, flybarless systems, or speed controllers can be connected to the S.BUS output. Thanks to digital addressing, each servo only responds to information that includes the correct servo address. No more cable clutter: one line to the wing, and for larger models, one cable per wing and one cable to the tail. It couldn't be simpler. This cable-saving and therefore weight-saving method can also be achieved with existing analog or digital standard servos. Only a PWM adapter is needed to convert the signal from S.BUS to PWM.
The R3008SB features antenna diversity and constantly checks the signal quality of both antenna inputs. This allows for quick and seamless switching to the better input signal.
Through the S.BUS2 connection, S.BUS2 sensors can be connected, allowing for the transmission of up to 32 telemetry data sets. The integrated telemetry transmitter in the receiver sends the telemetry data from the S.BUS2 connection to the transmitter, which displays, announces, or outputs the information audibly.
When connecting the receiver, the receiver battery voltage and antenna signal strength are automatically transmitted. An additional adapter cable can be used to measure and transmit another external voltage (e.g., the drive battery up to 70 V).
When using 7.4 V LiPo batteries as the receiver battery, the connected servos must also be rated for this voltage. The receiver does not have an internal voltage converter for the servo voltage.
2. Futaba FASSTest Sensor Height / Vario
The SBS-02A vario sensor can be used to measure the flight altitude and the climb/sink rate of the model via the FASSTest telemetry system. It can also be used on very small models. Compatible transmitters include T6K, T10J, T14SG, FX-22, FX-32, T18SZ, and T18MZ.
3. FrSky Empfänger X4R CPPM/LBT

6. Rc Ware RX2SIM Wireless Multi-Sim
No more annoying and too short cables between the transmitter and the RC simulator. With the RX2SIM, you can operate many well-known simulators wirelessly with practically any remote control. No student socket is required on the transmitter; you just need a compatible receiver with enough channels. The RX2SIM acts as the link between the receiver and the simulator's interface. The RX2SIM receives the signals from the receiver via a patch cable included in the package. It supports individual channels and all common "Single Line" receivers (PPM, Futaba S.Bus, SRXL, Spektrum DSM2/DSMX, JR DMSS). The RX2SIM converts the receiver signal into the corresponding student signal and sends it to the simulator interface. Additionally, the RX2SIM can also be operated as a joystick (Game Device). All programs that support a joystick can thus be controlled via the RX2SIM. This is particularly useful since R/C simulators like the neXt - CGM R/C Flight Simulator, Aerofly, FMS, and many shareware simulators are controlled with a joystick interface. The firmware of the RX2SIM is updatable, allowing for easy future enhancements.
