Futaba closes the gap between mid- and high-end class with the new Futaba T18SZ. The T18SZ is a full-featured 18-channel transmitter that leaves nothing to be desired in terms of transmission reliability, quality, function and operability.

The well-known modulations like FASST, FASSTest and FHSS were supplemented by the transmission technology T-FHSS, so that telemetry operation in FHSS mode is now also possible. The menu navigation is clearly structured and can be quickly operated via the large, color touch screen. In addition to the familiar functions of the T-18MZ, a multi-copter menu and 9-language menu navigation have been added. The integrated SD card slot for storing model data and updating software for future, new applications makes this remote control future-proof. The built-in loudspeaker, as well as the LiFe battery including charger round off the package.
