The Dx5C is DSMR based protocol. The $80. RX you see are AVC and telemetry equipped. Im sure there are 3 and 4 channel cheaper DSMR RX's. Go to Specktrums website. Shop them first. But that is a great question regarding he price of Rx's. Futaba Rx's can be very expensive and sometimes on B/O too. I have 4 models on my radio and some were only $39. or there abouts. I also have 2 $80. ones. But you don't need them. They are just optional variants of RX'sI saw the receivers on the DX5 run like $80. Is there a cheaper receiver option?
This is not expensive at all:

You can buy just the DX5C alone and buy the RX separately. I think if you def want the $80. dollar Rx, you get a better deal buying it together with the radio as a bundle. You have options if you want a spektrum DSMR radio. DSMR radios have the best interference rejection IMO. With decent range. Never had an issue compared to some of my cheaper radios I also have. Some food for thought.
