There is a special receiver case for 482, part number 107A41302A. If you need something that will fit standard receiver box, 472/471 is the way to go.

I know the 4s is still available online but I want to support the LHS.
My main concern though is if the 482 receiver will fit in most radio boxes or will I need a different reciever?

Only thing I can say at this point is that it feels much better than my old RTR radio, but that was expected :-).
I'm going to pair it with Super Vortex Zero Gen2 and see how well they work together...

This is very tempting.. The lack of service since the distributor change is deafening and I'm not sure I will buy unless that changes.

Is there anything specific you are looking for? I can take a picture of that page (but please don't ask me to take picture of all pages ;-)).

After a day with the radio, I'm pleased:
I'm glad that I haven't bought DX6R from Spektrum, because I would pay almost twice as much for the radio, and I wouldn't get even close to the functionality I get with SSV G2.
- SSL with Super Vortex Gen2 through RX-482 is working. This was the main reason why I bought it.
- Spektrum servo is running in SHR mode
- ob1 light controller can be controlled through AUX2 (CH4), though I can only turn lights on/off (it can't really read the SSL channel for brake/reverse lights). I've set the AUX2 channel to POINT mode, assigned it to SW2, PUSH mode.
- Telemetry is receiving all the data except motor temp, because it doesn't have the sensor.
- Backlight is a very neat feature
- Can't complain about how it feels
