Anyone know if a Futaba 8UAPS will do CCPM. I can't find it in the manual.

Yes it wiil.

It has four ccpm settings. If you need any help PM me and I will scan the page from the user guide. Not the book that came with the radio, the proper one you have to buy as an extra.

Hi Kiwi,

Just checked and my radio is the 8UAP, not the 8UAPS. Will it still do CCPM? I am crossing my fingers!

If you think it will, then yes, please send the appropriate page.

Right now it is set up with a OS 61 Rear exhaust engine, but OS just came up with a 91 for the Hirobo scale models. if really interested I'm sure we can come to an agreement.

Thanks. The green was a big deciding factor when i chose this scheme. It actually looks almost black in direct sunlight but the glare from the sun brings out the metallic green, its a really unique color.

best part was that the funkey 222 fuselages had the tail rotor on the wrong side. So i had to cut off that whole bullet shaped piece in the back, flip it over, glass and carbon tow it back in and put a whole tube of bondo filling putty on it in order for it to be true to the full size 222.

Heres the real one...
