              I've got two on order!!! I've ordered two of the combo deals from FL. We'll see how it goes.

              The only problem is that Futaba haven't updated the software for the 14MZ like they have on the 8FG to allow the gain to be set from the radio for the aileron and elevator functions. The new software has three gyro screens instead of one! I've emailed Futaba about this and they replied saying the new 14MZ software will be out soon - very vague!!!

                  Sorry. But don't think you can as it's only S-Bus compatible so far. Futaba are supposed to be making some interface add on for Spectrum users.

                    you CAN 100% use it with spektrum with their adapter as said-no idea when that will be available though.

                    tbh suits me-imo the sat rx idea is a bad one. the amount of space those 2 plugs use makes things larger.

                    cheers

                              I hope they will do the same for the 10C. It will mean I'd have to buy a campac though!

                              Pete do you have a link to that set up vid?
