How do you program it?
Futaba sells a USB device called the CIU-2 and provides software that you can download from their site. I believe some functions can be programmed from another device they sell or from the 18MZ transmitter but I don't have either of those. The software leaves something to be desired and maybe when enough guys complain they will improve it. For example, when setting end point travel and neutral offset it only allows increments of .25 degrees. Transmitter Sub trim and ATV adjustments are much finer than that and I believe it needs to be better when aligning elevators.
