Default dx5e with a BNF parkzone p51?

hello my name is daniel. I'm gradually getting back into flying rc again and i was wondering if the dx5e transmitter will bind with the parkzone p51 ultra micro plane. i know very little about the electric aspects of model planes. But since i plan on getting back into rc i thought it would be a good idea to get the dx5e transmitter and using it with several planes

Yes, it will work with BnF models. It's a good basic transmitter that should get you back into the hobby. The only draw backs are no model memory and if you plan on getting any A/C with unusual setups it may fall short.

so if i had several models, i would simply have to rebind it to each model every time i wanted to fly a different one? is there any other transmitters you would recommend that is in the 100 washingtons or less price range?

You won't have to rebind it but you will have to remember your trim settings and servo reversing and change it for every model. Stepping up to the DX6i will give you computer functions and model memories. It's an outstanding investment, IMO.

Depending on your previous experience, the P51 may not be the best choice to get started again. It's going to be tossed around in the wind a lot and less forgiving than some of the sport designs.

You can find some DX6i TXs on E-bay for under $100.00.

I am still using my Eclipse 7 and it's about time I upgraded so I'll check out those ebay prices.
Thanks for the info.
