RE: reciever for a futaba t8uaf?
Any Futaba shift FM receiver from any manufacturer will work with this transmitter. There may be some fringe brands that don't work, but I know Hitec, Futaba, FMA, GWS, and Polk all work. This transmitter will also support Futaba 1024 PCM recievers as the modulation is part of each model's programming.
Yes -- the T8UAF, also known as an 8U, is a good transmitter. I have flown an 8U Super for years and will only part with it when I move up to a 9Z. The non-super is a little less capable, but not by much...
