Mark, I could go an entire lifetime without eating a walking taco again.

Thanks again Mark! We definately appreciate your support of our community!

Let's hear your questions Crew!

Can you tell us the latency of these systems? The MZ/ MG / and also 9C modules.

Thanks

Okay, I actually have a few questions, more cosmetic.

1. The 14MZ is a very advanced transmitter where traditionally 72mhz channel selection is accomplished through touchscreen inputs. With the SS module in place, does this interaction change in any way? Meaning, is the transmitter smart enough to know that a SS module is plugged in? If so, does binding take place through the touch screen?

2. The F/S label on the back of the module. Failsafe? Or is it the binding button?

Thanks Mark!

Hi, Dave-

We're going to suggest that modelers remove the antenna from the system when using the FASST systems.

While it's unlikely that it will cause any problems, it's not utilized when the FASST module is in place. Plus, it only takes a few seconds to re-attach the antenna when you want to utilize your existing 72 MHz equipment.

Will the existing telescopic antenna in my 9C cause any problems if left in plac and collapsed with the TM's transmission? Any shading or weird RF/range issues in this configuration? I've got a bunch of 72mhz Rx's and this would make it easier to flip flop between them. Just pop out the TM 2.4 module and pop in my 72mhz synth module and go fly. That would be cool.... Thanks again... Dave

WIll the new 14MZ 2.4 module also work with the FX-40?

[bosshoss]

I get to do the test and review with my LHS's demo !!!!

Yeeeha!!!!! Come on release date....................

I only got a few minutes with Frank today, but he said yes. I asked if it was field tested, yes, no problems.
Best wishes.

Why are both these 2 logos on the new tranny at same time, the wireless frequency select one (WFSS) and the spectrum one (FASST), how can you wireless select a frequency on spectrum.

Futaba wants to give you the opportunity to be able to go back and forth between having 72mhz freq's and also the 2.4 FASST system. Therefore the logos. In answer to your question, you can't change frequencies with the FASST system when in operation.

First of all, Frank (Futabaman)- awesome avatar!

Max-

Sorry for the delay. I took the Mrs. to dinner

The binding on our systems take place through the Easy Link button on the receivers. After the module has been inserted into the respective transmitter, turn the tx on and press the Easy Link button for apprximately one second. This links, or binds, the two.

The button on the back serves as a method of failsafe and as the power down function for range checking.

I hope this helps. If any more questions just let me know.

How's the Latency?

Will this be an issue with the 9Z? If I'm not mistaken, that antenna doesn't unscrew...

Thanks, Doug
