It's good. The trigger sweep is a tad long, takes some getting used too, but range is plenty. I've had 2 of them. Look in the classifieds lol. their gone quick when their posted. Get the 3C, it charges with usb charging and has a lipo. Just plug it in to charge it. 3B doesn't.

There's also the $37.95 GT3X, which I assume is also made by FlySky:

It uses the $9.95 FS-A3 receivers:

I use this for some of my Breakout class loaner cars, and it works okay. It's not up to the quality of my DX4C, but it costs less than half what the DX4C costs.

I run a flysky gt3b. 10 model memory and all. Mine is modded to fit a 3s lipo in it for power.this is a great mid for weight reduction and I purchased a new 3s for less than the cost of 8aa rechargables.shed a bunch of weight. Range is awesome. And flysky now has a rx that's designed to run on 8.4v for power hungry servos. I think mine cost around 45 new. They also have some other mods that allow unlimited model memory as well as other goodies
