Immerse yourself in a product so revolutionary that it has the potential to change the
way 2.4GHz systems are designed. Combining the Futaba legacy with an 18-channel
system is probably more than enough to make long-time fliers want to buy one. However,
the 18MZ also offers the latest and best chapter in Futaba’s 2.4GHz developments: new
FASSTest (Expanded System Telemetry) technology, whilst also being able to operate on
FASST and S-FHSS transmission systems (including the forthcoming Futaba Transmitter
Ready models).
Powered by a 7.4V, 3500mAh Li-Po transmitter battery, the 18MZ is the first true
18-channel Futaba radio system ever. It comes with an R7000SB telemetry enabled
receiver, a high-voltage design that operates up to 8 channels using the 8 standard PWM
outputs or up to 18 channels (16 proportional + 2 digital) through the 18MZ’s S-Bus port.
That means a simpler setup and full support for S-Bus and S-Bus2 servos. As supplied
the R7008SB receiver includes integral sensors for receiver voltage, signal strength and
external voltage, with further separate sensors due to be available soon (see page 65).
Slide a card in the inbuilt SD slot and you have ample capacity for unlimited updates,
model memories and sound/picture files. The 18MZ also has a built-in 0.3M megapixel
camera eliminating the need for a digital camera or mobile phone. The transmitter
includes a big, brilliant and backlit 6” touch screen with 640x240 resolution which
provides sparkling clarity on remarkably little power.
The in-built S-Bus programming system allows the 18MZ to be used whilst setting up a
model with S-Bus servos thus simplifying setups.
The functions outlined here are just the tip of the iceberg - making the Futaba 18MZ a
must have for any serious pilot!
