As far as a small DSM receiver in modern times, there are two good ones...this one and one from Spektrum...this one is lighter and cheaper....similar performance The weight and price are great for those of us who still when we throw together an experimental drone using equipment that is because we still have transmitters from 5 years ago that run this protocol. My one complaint/suggestion is to put a dab of glue on the antenna or heat shrink them because they will pop off (part of this might be where I might place this Beeceiver in a spot where the antenna will pop off in a collision)

Bind was quick, size is tiny, weight is small, and range is perfect for smaller quads that you would normally fly in close. I did not check maximum range, but it was solid at 100 meters. If you need DSMX, this is a great choice.

This receiver works great on my toothpick. I haven't had any failsafes with it. It was really easy to install.

I am very impressed with the size. Now I can use my Dx9 Spektrum transmitter with my Tyro 79 pro. Awesome !!!

Spi rx on larva x was terrible, surprised to find a DSM micro with a wide voltage range and a reasonable price! Fit snugly under fc and is a great link with easy binding.
