Nice find! I'm so glad they went the extra step as to make channels and plug direction easier to see.

No issues with mine so far.

I have no problems with any of them. They all jumped up in price quite a bit, and the cheapest ones I could find were the DasMikro receivers. I liked the DasMikro so much in my older SCT,


I put one in my latest SCT...

I've been fine with clones. The das mikro are the cheapest ones for now. I don't run too many of them, but am switching a few out to those for vehicles that are more for fun than being competitive.

It looks like Sanwa FH-5 compatible receiver will be available soon. I will buy MT-5 and have a try...

I can not post pictures and web links currently. I saw it on Ali Express. You make a search using 'Sanwa FH-5' on Ali Express. It says the ETA is June 30th.

sangyue, a FH5 compatible receiver would be a game changer for me if and when I would need another mid-level radio. Planning for the future, I was looking earlier today at Sanwa's radios for any that were backwards capable, and the only one I'd seen was the M17... sorry, I can't cough up that kind of change.

Still not seeing anything FH5 compatible.

Default Transmitter/Receiver Chart

Sanwa Transmitter/Receiver Compatibility Chart:


The chart may help answer some questions with matching up what receiver goes with what transmitters.

Odd that the M17 doesn't support the indicator function.

Currenly only below 3 Sanwa TX can support FH-5. They are MT-R, MT-5 and M17.
I am sure you will see Sanwa FH-5 compatible receivers on the market by the end of this month.
The FH-5 compatible receiver is also from DasMikro.

I'm glad someone stepped up to the plate. The price of receivers is totally a deal breaker for me. The Sanwa MT-R is now back on my list of radios to consider!

Mailman dropped this off today.

Works fine with fh5, won't do fh5u, so no ssr or sxr mode.

But zero complaints, already a far cry from the gen1 days of fh3
