Item Description
Futaba 8FG - 8-channel 2.4GHz Computer System

8-channel 2.4GHz Computer System

The "much more for far less" system!

It's priced hundreds of pounds 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.

*SD memory card not included

8FG SensorTouch Pad
The SensorTouch™ dial – and a wide range of factory-defined mixes – help you program like a pro. Like the "click wheel" on an iPod® device, the SensorTouch requires only a light touch, yet helps you navigate through menus (and make settings?) with unprecedented speed and ease!
swash mix menu

Separate swash type and swash detail menus help you fine-tune heli setups to performance perfection.


trims
Trims set up with digital precision and accuracy. You can adjust by setting trim steps a specific value, or as a percentage of the total range – whichever suits your flying style best.
neckstrap

The 8FG comes out of the box perfectly balanced for neckstrap support and fingertip control. A thin, narrow case makes it easier and more comfortable to grasp.


SD memory card
With the 8FG, how much memory you have is a matter of choice. 20-model memory is built-in, but the 8FG can accept SD memory cards from 32MB all the way up to 2GB. That's more than enough for virtually unlimited model setups and downloads of online software updates!
8FG LCD Screen

The big backlit LCD offers contrast and brightness adjustments, normal/large timer display options and a user-settable auto-off feature for conserving power.


gyro screen
You can set a single gyro rate on the airplane menu, or as many as three. Changing the rate is as easy as touching a switch.
governor screen

On the heli menu, you can assign the gyro and governor functions to any switch or control – conveniences that are usually found only on high-end systems.


conditions screen
The glider menu offers four "virtual" channels for mixing setups, as well as the opportunity to set as many as five conditions per channel!
 

R6008HS FASST ReceiverR6008HS 8-Channel FASST Receiver

At just under a half-ounce, the R6008HS offers 2048 resolution, FASST dependability and lightning-fast response. In high-speed mode*, the R6008HS slashes the normal frame rate from 14 milliseconds to just 7 milliseconds, making it a perfect performance match for digital servos.

*High-speed mode is available only on Channels 1-6 and requires the use of digital (including brushless digital) servos. Channels 7 & 8 – which operate only in normal mode – can be equipped with either analog or digital servos.
