RE: Receiver for combat?
I run the 555, i tried the 05S singles in my ssc's and while the did work I have had 2 go bad, one during nats. I still have a SC 04something hitec in a hard case and never had a problem with it in my ssc's. The 05s was really a full range for electric models in a cardboard case.
555 is still my favorite for size, durability and price.
