I purchased the HobbyStar HRX-472 from Amazon and it works great. I had a problem pressing the bind button so I took the case off.

Works perfectly on the MT-44 in FH4 mode.

I would post a link but I'm a newbie.

whats rediculous is that Amain will overcharge for them... 49Euro does in no way equal almost 90$!!!

You can get powerstar rs472hv, the one with antenna from aliexpress. Priced aroud $30 with free shipping.
Also you can check out Cooltech which also has the same mini size receiver with ceramic antenna. But I would spray some conformal coating on it if I'm using it outdoor/offroad

Big test will be on the 26th of January in Slovakia at the Hudy Arena.
The first switch on was a little it tricky, but I figured it out.
I bought it from e-bay, and the seller told me, that this receivers signal distance is bigger than the RX482.
I will keep you updated about this receiver.

ordered 2 on ebay...on the way.... cant wait
