Since its commissioning in autumn 2012, Tunka-Rex, the radio extension of theair-Cherenkov detector Tunka-133, performed three years of air showermeasurements. Currently the detector consists of 44 antennas connected toair-Cherenkov and scintillator detectors, respectively, placed in the Tunkavalley, Siberia. Triggered by these detectors, Tunka-Rex measures the radiosignal up to EeV-scale air-showers. This configuration provides a uniquepossibility for cross-calibration between air-Cherenkov, radio and particletechniques. We present reconstruction methods for the energy and the showermaximum developed with CoREAS simulations, which allow for a precisioncompetitive with the air-Cherenkov technique. We apply these methods to dataacquired by Tunka-Rex in the first year which we use for cross-calibration, andwe compare the results with the reconstruction of the energy and the showermaximum by Tunka-133, which provides also a reconstruction for the shower coreused for the radio reconstruction. Our methods have shown that the atmosphericdepth of the shower maximum ($X_\mathrm{max}$) can be reconstructed with aprecision of better than 40 g/cm$^2$ for high quality events, in some caseseven when only three antenna stations have signal. The energy precision iscomparable with the air-Cherenkov precision of 15%. Soon the results will bechecked with the independent data of the second year.
