It’s priced hundreds of dollars less than the closest competition, so it’s a great buy.
But it also offers features the competition doesn’t, including some that have previously been found only on very high-end systems…and one that isn’t available anywhere else. It could easily be the best 2.4GHz value on the market today, as well as the only radio you’ll ever need.
- A superb value for upper-level sport pilots as well as pilots breaking into competitive venues.
- It’s the first Futaba system with SensorTouch™ programming, a feature that puts the power to move through menus and complete setup in record time at your fingertips.
- Includes a huge number of factory-defined mixes that help you program like a pro – and enjoy the best of the 8FG’s potential.
- Accepts 32MB to 2GB SD memory cards* – you can add as much…or as little…memory as you want.
- Low latency and cutting-edge 2048 resolution combine for exceptionally fast, accurate Real-Time Response™.
- Offers FASST trademark dependability with a single R6008FS receiver. No “satellite” or “specialty” receivers required.
