Default RE: Futaba 8 FG Programming Guide

The 8FG and 12FG software is way simpler to setup than the 9C’s radios.

Let’s take for example an airplane with 2 or 4 wing servos and two elevator servos:

Select NEW > AIRPLANE , scroll to wing type select NORMAL Scroll down and select how many servos (1-2-3-4 etc..) scroll down to TAIL and select (if using two servos for elevators) AILEVATOR and you’re done all in one screen. Now go to the LINKAGE MENU and check your servo end points and reverse the servos if necessary.

Now it took me less than one minute to do this on the 8FG and 12FG, it will take me about 5 minutes or more to do the same on my old 8UAPS radio.

Hope that helps,
Doug.

P.S. FYI: with the 8FG you can assign any channel to any function and any function to any channel or switch.
