Default Futaba 3PKS 2.4Mhz...

Hi Rc guys and gals which 2.4ghz is a better choice is futaba 3PKS , like to hear you guys and gals out there your comments about this 2.4 GHZ and FS receiver. I have 3PKS radio with FM 75mhz and I am thinking to upgrade from 75mhz to 2.4ghz. So will non digital servos can be used on Futaba’s (R603 FS) receiver?


thanks

Im not sure, but I think I read on the futaba website that the fasst system works with both PPM and HRS. So if you set you radio to PPM I think you would be OK, but id check it out to be sure. HRS requires digitals and PPM does not.

Personally I use the spektrum pro in my 3pks because I had a couple of spektrum receives, and it uses PPM modulation. Spektrum also sells an HRS only set.

The 3PJ is not compatible.

The 4PK is right around the corner...so I'm waiting to go from a 3PJS; to the 4PK...hopefully its got an ever nicer feel.

You need upgrade to 3pk as plain and simple.

Futaba FAQ: http://www.futabarc.com/faq/faq-3pj.html

FASST Module/Receiver Sets: http://2.4gigahertz.com/modules/modules-receivers.html

I hope this help.
