Default RE: New Futaba 8J

ORIGINAL: TimBle

I wonder if S-FHSS is a rebrand of the FASST Multi system?

Makes sense to rename it to avoid confusion going forward
No, it is not. S-FHSS receivers are not compatible with FASST transmitters and vice versa.

I say this based on the fact that in the frequency selection menu of the new 18MZ your choices are:

FASSTest 18CH
FASSTest 12CH
FASST MULTI
FASST 7CH
S-FHSS

And I am fairly certain that none of the FASST or FASSTest receivers will work with a S-FHSS RX. The new 8J comes with a R20008SB receiver that say S-FHSS on it.

But S-Bus will be available on the "J" series radios from the looks of it.
