Where can I find the channel number that my SC is operating on? I have searched the DX4e label and the receiver top but I don't see anything that indicates channel.
I would like to buy a new fuselage with electronics but am lost as to which number I need.

Captbh. I don't think you need a channel number with the DX4. The old Supercub was on 27mhz and you had channel numbers 1 to 6.
Sound like you are looking at the old version supercub, which will not work with your 2.4tx. (DX4)

The DX4e is a 2.4GHz system, there is no 'channel'. You BIND to the RX.
Are you sure the ESC/RX and servos are shot? Maybe you just need a fuse. And unless you REALLY demolished it you probably can glue it back together again. Lots of help with that here. Why spend a bunch of $$ on new equipment if you are learning and will just trash it again?
Folks think they are going to learn to fly. What you really are going to learn is more about glue, tape, and soldering than you ever imagined.

Glad everyone could interpret "nubmer" to be number! I have found the spell check button.
You are spot on. I was looking at the old style fuselage not thinking that the DX4e is bind n fly, thanks.
I actually am still flying the SC I have thanks to you guys and the tape, glue and upgrade ideas. I want to do a second one that I will paint and trick out. It seemed that starting with a blank fuselage with electronics installed was the easiest way to start the project while still flying the original one.
I have PLENTY of spare parts in stock to equip the second fuselage!
Thanks again for the help.

Not sure they sell fuse with electrics installed. No matter, for a full mod you need to move all that stuff around anyway.
If you are going for a brushless you DO NOT want the 'RX/ESC- brick' IMO. It's typical Horzion proprietary stuff (too expensive, not all that quality) AND it won't work on a brushless setup anyway.
Get a Spektrum RX and an appropriate ESC for the motor you will use.
