In my experience, the Hitec receivers are essentiall bullet proof. I have 4 or 5 and have never had a problem with any of them...even ones that get abused in a combat foamie.
For my DLG, I use a Hitec 555 with the case removed. I have another 555 for use in other small slopers, and the rest are a mix of Hitec 7 and 8 channel rx's. If you are in Southern California by any chance, be sure to check out Hobby People's sales fliers. Every couple months or so they usually run a special on Hitec receivers for pretty cheap.
