Do consider that the DX-5e is a one airplane/one transmitter radio. It has no model storage for other airplanes. You will soon be in the market for another radio as soon as you want to add another airplane.
Here is my suggestion for an affordable 2.4 intro radio and you get inflight battery pack telemetry with it and two Rx's Plus the lowest standard priced Rx's on the market among the majors at fifty bucks. This system is rock solid.
