The next generation of transmitters from Futaba will soon be in our hands! The Futaba 4PX is packed with features with a lightning fast response from the T-FHSS system which is 30% faster than it's predecessor the 4PKSR and is 15grams lighter. Totally redesigned and it comes equipped with telemetry voice output which can be turned on and off for races that does not allow such. Expected release is 3rd quarter of 2014 (August).
Here's the full spec of the 4PX
- Low steering position contribute to low center of gravity
- The weight is 15g lighter than 4PKSR
- An aluminum frame is inserted in the body to strengthen the structure
- All in one transmitter antenna (The angle can be changed)
- Transmitter weight: 555 g without batteries / 562 g with alkaline
- The response of T-FHSS system in 4PX is optimized and 30% faster than 4PKSR.
- Telemetry features can be used without delay in the response.
- 2.4GHz system – T-FHSS, S-FHSS & FASST-C2
- Following receivers can be used with 4PX: R304SB, R304SB-E, R614FS, R614FF-E, R2104GF, R204GF-E & R203GF
