Futaba 12FG 2.4GHz FASSTTM Radio System 
General News
Futaba 2.4Ghz 12FG

Looks like Futaba have entered the 2.4ghz market with a vengeance

Futaba's new 12FG radio combines the unmatched precision of 2048 resolution with the groundbreaking advantages of Futaba's proven FASST 2.4GHz system. This is the radio for discerning R/C pilots who insist on state-of-the-art features and functions for the most precise control imaginable. And because it's from Futaba, you can use it with confidence knowing that the industry's finest research and development has gone into it - making it a real value for you!

The advantages of FASST Futaba 2.4GHz systems:

Channel Shifting
Other 2.4GHz systems hold firm to one or two frequencies, increasing the potential for interference. The frequency of Futaba 2.4GHz FASST systems shift every 2 milliseconds, so there are no signal conflicts or interruptions - and no need for a frequency pin!

Pre-vision
2.4GHz FASST scans incoming data and applies sophisticated error correction techniques - resulting in a system that gives you a solid, impenetrable connection with your model.

Dual Antenna Diversity
Futaba 2.4GHz FASST systems seamlessly select the best reception between two receiver antennas, so there's no loss of signal.

100x Faster Antenna Switching
If the receiver notices a problem with the data coming into one antenna, it rapidly switches to the other - looking for the sharpest signal.
*Comparing the R606FS receiver to the AR6000 receiver.

Custom-Developed IC Chips
Futaba uses custom IC chips that have been designed specifically for radio-control - ensuring quality, reliability, and safety. This is why Futaba FASST systems are faster and more reliable than the competition.

14-channel "all-in-one" receiver
With the R6014FS receiver modelers will be able to take advantage of all twelve channels on their 12FG. The R6014FS receiver, included with the 12FG is the first spread spectrum receiver to offer more than eight channels. Full-range systems from other manufacturers include a bigger, two-piece receiver, and you must purchase a smaller park flyer receiver separately.

Latency?
Latency Latency is the elapsed time between your movement of the transmitter controls and servo response. The 12FG system offers real-time-response so you feel less like you're "out in front" leading your model, and more like you're inside driving or flying it.

Easy Link
Futaba 2.4GHz FASST systems leave the factory already linked. Once linked the receiver will recognize and respond ONLY to that transmitter. Binding more receivers is not a problem - the linking process is simple...just push a button on the receiver.
