Default RE: PCM 512 to 2.4 convesion


ORIGINAL: lordz1978 Hi.
I know this is a very common conversation, but I already "dig" in the net but can not find nothing for my radio.
I have a FUTABA FP-8SGHP 512 PCM and I would like to know if it´s possible to convert to 2.4 and how??
Many thanks. André
The FP-8SSGHPis a pre 1991 unit and no current PPM or 2.4Ghz module will fit the 10 pin layout.
Futaba - Compatibility - Interchange of Modules between 8U, 9C, 9Z , 12Z& 14MZ
However, there are one or two Chinese manufacturers who supply a "package" which may fit inside,
beside the newTX-R Transmitter Ready 2.4GHz system.
. AnyLink enables your transmitter to send out a true, 2.4GHz signal
"and operate with all of the interference-free dependability of a frequency-hopping, spread-spectrum system. "
FP-8SGHP set to PPM will enable this to work through trainer socket and permit use with all the TXR planes
including those to be released by other manufactures, including Hitec RCD, with the open source SLT, [FAQ]
