Hello guys,
Many people are having problems operating Hitec 5955 servos on the new FASST 6014 Rx by Futaba, since the 6014 Rx is the first Rx that has a signal voltage of 2.6V (up to date all were over 3V).
I just went off the phone with Emmerich, the owner of PB systems, consulting him about an electrical system for my Eurosport and Cermark F-16 and he gave me some very useful information.
1. To be able to use a single device (servo, electronic valve, ECU etc) on the 6014 Rx (if it doesnt work) one can simply use a PB signal amplifier and it will increase the signal voltage which will make it work:

2. ALL current PB systems have signal amplifiers and will work with Futaba 6014 and 5955 servos etc. some older model PB's will not work, but they are upgradeable at no charge by sending them to PB systems - thats great service !!
So, for those of you (like me) that like the 5955 or bought a bunch to use on your jets - this is in fact a pretty good solution !!
it can also be used for rhose of you who are having trouble operating electronic valves and such on the new 6014 Rx.
Hope you find this information useful.
FUTABA will have you $pending your cash really F*****T now! [&:]
powerboxes amplifiers the list goes on??? more cost = more weight [:@]
I will stick to my PCM Rx on 72 mhz. [sm=49_49.gif]
At least you do have a way around the hightech roadblocks.
