NOTES FROM OUR TECH DEPARTMENT

      This is the FASST 2.4GHz 14MZ 14-Channel Computer Radio from Futaba
              with the R6014 2.4GHz FASST 14-Channel Receiver.
                         Does not include servos.
          Contains software for airplanes, helicopters and gliders.
   This is the helicopter version which will default to helicopter settings
        when powered up and does not have a ratcheted throttle stick.
                          1 year limited warranty.

If your transmitter's region code is something other than the United States,the TM-14 Module sold in the United States is not compatible with this transmitter. As such, it is necessary to purchase the TM-14 module which matches the region code of the transmitter.

**** While you can obtain a 72Mhz or 50Mhz module for this radio, **** **** it can only be purchased through **** **** the service center at 217-398-8970 opt 2 ****

Easily the most advanced radio system ever developed, the 14MZ brings many innovations to radio design and technology. For the latest information about the 14MZ visit the manufacturer web page at www.14mz.com or www.2.4gigahertz.com

FASST FEATURES: Futaba's FASST (Futaba Advanced Spread Spectrum Technology) shifts very quickly virtually eliminating signal conficts and interruptions unlike other 2.4GHz systems that only stay on one or two frequencies Dual antenna diversity enables FASST system to automatically and seamlessly select the best reception between the two antennas built into the receiver ensuring that the aircraft stays under constant control of transmitter regardless of altitude Pre-Vision Packet Screening technology scans incoming data for potential problems and applies sophisticated error correction techniques for solid impenetrable link with model Easy Link system features a unique ID code in the transmitter that links to the receiver insuring that receiver only follows commands from this transmitter-with over 134 million possible codes there is no chance for a conflict When performing a ground check, the Power Down function allows modeler to reduce power from up to 50+ paces away-like retracting the antenna on a conventional transmitter No hassle Fail Safe programmed through transmitter-no complicated set-up steps or binding plugs Purpose built custom IC chips for key functions; no off-the-shelf IC chips

GENERAL FEATURES: Real-Time Response Double the resolution of PCM1024, the 14MZ's breakthrough PCM G3 2048 enables servos to pick up even the slightest stick movements. It's the closest to actual real-time response possible, for unprecedented speed and precision. The 14MZ is also backwards- compatible, so pilots can still use 1024PCM and PPM receivers

Large Color Touch Screen Only one company in the world could make the 14MZ display...it's an engineering triumph in itself. The HGVA screen features crystal clear 640x240 pixel resolution. It uses transflective technology (layered transparent and reflective surfaces) plus adjustable backlighting and contrast for easy visibility, even in direct sunlight. Menu navigations and selections can be made by touching the screen-or use the Dial-N-Key button to scroll and select

Dual Internal Processors 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.

Pre-Programmed Mixes Numerous aircraft configurations are already programmed in. Just select the needed setup

Servo Grouping Multiple servos controlling a single function can be set up through the transmitter and then plugged into differently adjustable receiver channels (even non-consecutively) without needing a separate servo synchronizer for mixing.

Switch Customizing The eight shoulder switches can be reconfigured to your own preference-just pull out switch and plug in the preferred style, tall or short, button or toggle, spring-loaded or positionable.

R6014FS Receiver; Futaba advanced technology allows this receiver to be the first 2.4GHz receiver able to utilize all 14 channels. It retains G3 2048 resolution and Futaba Real Time Response from the 72MHz version. Simple one-touch binding - no plugs to mess with or lose A full range system for all aircraft from giant scale to Park Flyer applications-no need to buy separate receiver for specific aircraft Dual Antenna Diversity allows 2.4GHz FASST Futaba transmitter to select the best reception between the two receiver antennas with no signal loss Rubber grommets installed where antennas exit to eliminate stress and fraying of the two antenna wires

Lithium-Ion Transmitter Battery Even with the 14MZ transmitter's brilliant, full-color display, fliers will enjoy 2-3 hours of operating time per charge from the included 7.4V, 2200mAh Lithium-Ion battery pack

Compact Flash Card Data Storage & Transfer Built-in 30-model memory, which can be expanded to 100 models using the supplied Flash memory card. Upload digital images of your aircraft for use as model names on the graphic menu. Create and store audio files enabling you to fly to music or flight call sequences. The transmitter also includes a built-in mic for recording and storing up to 24 voice prompts, such as "Landing gear down" and "Full throttle!" These prompts can be assigned to specific switches and functions so that audio confirmations of proper stick movement are heard through the transmitter's speaker.

INCLUDES: 14MZ Transmitter 2.4GHz TM-14 Module FUTL8934 R6014 2.4GHz FASST 14-Channel Receiver FUTL7644 Data pack memory card LT2F2200 7.4V Lithium Ion transmitter battery FUTM1475 LBC-1D5 Lithium Ion transmitter battery charger FUTM1700 FBC-32 wall charger for receiver battery FUTM1705 NR4F1500 NiCd 4.8V receiver battery FUTM1285 Aluminum case with fully padded interior, two lockable latches and two keys Switch harness Aileron extension cord Y-harness DSC (Direct Servo Control) cord Woven adjustable neck strap Rubber tipped stylus pen for touch panel, dress nut wrench, 2.5mm and 1.5mm hex wrench Instruction manual

REQUIRES: Charging batteries before use Servos of modeler's choice

SPECS: Transmitter; Operating System: 2-stick 14 channels, PCM-G3 synthesizer system Transmitting Frequency: 2.4GHz, 72Mhz, or 50Mhz Modulation: PCM-G3, PCM1024 or FM/PPM switchable Power Supply: 7.4V LT2F2200 Lithium Ion battery Current Drain: 1A maximum (RF power on and back light on) 700mA average

COMMENTS: For a true mode change on this radio it must be sent to the Futaba service center, as the sticks will need to be recalibrated.

This system can also be operated on 72MHz or 50MHz by purchasing the Transmitter Antenna (FUTM5120), and the 72MHz Module (#HSP78899) or the 50MHz Module (#HSP79189)-both must be purchased through Hobby Services) and using a compatible receiver.

Suggested Futaba servos for use with the 14MZ include; S9154 High Speed Digital Aileron Servo (FUTM0214) S9151 Digital Rudder Servo (FUTM0211) S9250 Digital Heli Servo (FUTM0220) S9255 Digital Heli High Torque (FUTM0225) Digital servos are not required but recommended for best performance
