Futaba R6008HS 2.4GHz FASST 8-Channel Receiver
Hi Bax and Krysta,
I am considering purchasing the Futaba R6008HS 2.4GHz FASST 8-Channel Receiver.
Before I do this, I want to know if there are any drawbacks or loss of performance.
Will the R6008HS 8-Channel Receiver work at optimum performance with the 12FGA FASST transmitter?
As I understand it, if I use any receiver other than the R6014FS, I will need to switch the transmitter mode to match that particular receiver.
If I use the R6008, I would need to switch to the 8 channel mode...correct?
Does this result in any loss of performance?
Will I still have all the options and features of the R6014FS, except for having fewer channels?
Regards
JC

RE: Futaba R6008HS 2.4GHz FASST 8-Channel Receiver
The R6008HS receiver will work with a module-based transmitter that uses the TM-8 module, and will also work with the 10C, 12FG, 12Z, and 14MZ transmitters. They all get set to "multi" mode, just as if you're using the R618FS receiver. The 8-channel and 14-channel receivers use the "multi" mode, so if you're already using the R6014FS receiver, then you'll just link the receiver to your transmitter. Nothing else will be needed because the transmitter will already be in the correct transmitting mode.
You'll lose absolutely nothing if you use the R6008HS receiver with a 12FG. You'll just have 8 channels to work with instead of the 14 channels you get with the R6014FS receiver. No speed nor other performance will be sacrificed. In fact, if you use digital servos, you can use the high-speed mode of the receiver for better response and holding power.

Used With My 10 CAG
If I use this I would have to switch my 10CAG TX to the 10 CH Modul?
