Will be getting a dex410 when they arrive later this month and see the area for speedo and receiver is quite tight. I have a 3VCS and the receiver (R603FS) is on the large side and am thinking I may have issue fitting them both in.

Is there a smaller receiver available for the 3VCS that will have a better chance of fitting or is there anyone currently running a r10 and r603fs in their 410 that have managed to get them in.

Thanks

I've run a Speed Passion GT in my 410 with the 603 receiver. With the older shell you had to avoid using the edge of the chassis as the shell hit things. the newer kuhler shell doesn't have this problem.

I've just got a FrSky micro receiver that works with the 3vcs 2.4ghz system. It is much smaller than the Futaba receiver and apparently made by the same man who designed the orange label newer Futaba receivers.
Only downside is it comes with 2 aerial wires but I've been told if you remove the second one it still works.
Oh and they are cheaper!

Any chance you can let me know which model you buy and where from ?
