Futaba 14MZ The new era in radio control! Posted on Saturday, November 27, 2004 @ 18:14:01 PST
Topic: General News
With an incredible fourteen channels and the most cutting-edge radio
technology in the industry, the 14MZ
clearly stands alone. First and foremost among its many features are dual
internal processors - a Futaba processor dedicated to flying functions, and
a Microsoft Windows CE processor for "non-flight" functions.
The 14MZ takes
advantage of two separate internal processors for maximum efficiency
and reliability. A custom Futaba processor expertly directs all
functions dedicated to flight control. Input for general operating
tasks — such as set-up and programming — is processed by Windows
CE.
Double
the resolution of PCM 1024, the 14MZ’s breakthrough PCM G3 2048
enables servos to pick up even the slightest stick movements.
It’s enhanced by a frame rate that’s 40% faster than Futaba’s
9Z — much more data transmits in a much shorter time. The result?
Real-Time Response…response so good, it feels like it’s happening
in real time! Note: The 14MZ can also transmit in 1024 PCM and FM/PPM.
Only
one company in the world could make the 14MZ display…it’s an engineering
triumph in itself. The HVGA screen features crystal-clear 640x240
pixel resolution. It uses transflective technology (layered transparent
and reflecting surfaces) plus adjustable backlighting and contrast
for easy visibility, even in direct sunlight. Navigate through
menus and make selections by touching the screen — or use the
Dial-N-Key button to scroll and select.
Reconfigure
the eight 14MZ shoulder switches to your own preference. Just pull
out a switch to remove it, and plug in the style you prefer — tall
or short, button or toggle, spring-loaded or positionable.
Thanks to
state-of-the-art Ball Grid Array (BGA) layered PC board technology,
the 14MZ’s R5014DPS 14-channel synthesized receiver is the world’s
smallest. You’ll appreciate how easy its WFSS (Wireless Frequency
Setting System) makes changing frequencies at busy airfields…you
can do it right from the transmitter, without changing crystals!
