What receiver is equipped with CC3D? Analysis of popular flight control matching solutions in 2024
With the popularity of drones and FPV racing, CC3D flight control has become the first choice for entry-level players because of its open source nature and high cost performance. This article will combine recent hot discussions to analyze the matching scheme of CC3D flight control and receiver, and provide structured data reference.
1. CC3D flight control receiver compatibility overview

| Receiver type | Protocol support | Recommended scenarios | Popular models |
|---|---|---|---|
| PWM receiver | Native support | Basic fixed wing | FlySky FS-R6B |
| PPM receiver | Requires firmware support | multi-rotor aircraft | FrSky D4R-II |
| SBUS receiver | Adapter required | FPV racing | TBS Crossfire |
| DSM2/DSMX | Requires satellite receiver | Spektrum users | LemonRXDSMX |
2. Performance comparison of popular receivers in 2024
| Model | Weight(g) | Delay(ms) | Number of channels | reference price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FlySky FS-iA6B | 5.8 | 18 | 6 | ¥120 |
| FrSky XM+ | 1.6 | 9 | 16 | ¥180 |
| TBS Crossfire Nano | 3.2 | 6 | 12 | ¥450 |
| ELRS EP1 | 1.1 | 4 | 16 | ¥150 |
3. Specific matching plan recommendations
1. Economical combination:CC3D + FlySky FS-iA6B PWM receiver is suitable for beginners with limited budget and can meet basic flight needs.
2. Racing optimization combination:CC3D + FrSky XM+ SBUS receiver, low latency, suitable for FPV racing, requires the use of SBUS to PPM converter.
3. Long-distance solution:CC3D + TBS Crossfire Nano supports a maximum control distance of 10km, suitable for aerial photography and long-distance navigation applications.
4. Future trend plan:CC3D + ELRS EP1 receiver adopts the latest ExpressLRS protocol and has industry-leading anti-interference capabilities.
4. Installation precautions
1. PWM receivers need to occupy multiple ports. It is recommended to give priority to PPM or SBUS receivers to save wiring.
2. When using an SBUS receiver, you need to confirm that the CC3D firmware version is supported (LibrePilot 15.09 or above is recommended)
3. The DSM series receiver needs to be connected through the satellite interface and cannot directly use the standard receiver port.
4. All receivers should be tested for signal before installation to avoid loss of control in the air.
5. User feedback
| Combination plan | Stability | Control accuracy | Installation difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|
| CC3D+FrSky XM+ | ★★★★☆ | ★★★★★ | ★★★☆☆ |
| CC3D+FlySky FS-iA6B | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★☆☆ | ★☆☆☆☆ |
| CC3D+ELRS EP1 | ★★★★★ | ★★★★☆ | ★★★★☆ |
Summary:Although CC3D flight control is no longer the latest product, you can still get a good flight experience by choosing the receiver appropriately. According to recent user discussion trends, we recommend giving priority to receivers that support SBUS or ELRS protocols, which perform better in terms of latency and reliability. Users with a limited budget can choose the PPM plan, while players seeking ultimate performance should consider the Crossfire or ELRS systems.
