12Z Metal Carrying Case

Offers superior protection for your system — with a splash of style. The brushed aluminum case has lockable, easy-opening latches on the lid and rounded corners. Inside, foam padding provides maximum cushioning for the transmitter and other accessories.

Joy Stick Button and Dial-N-Key Jog Dial

Programming the 12Z is as user-friendly as it gets, thanks to Futaba’s innovative Dial-N-Key setup and the single joy stick button that lets you move the cursor in 4 directions.

Dual Internal Processors

Allows one processor to be devoted to flying functions, while the other processor focuses on “non-flight” functions such as input and communications.

Real-Time Response

Breakthrough PCM G3 2048 features twice the resolution, which means the servo picks up even the slightest stick movement. Frame rate is 40% faster than even Futaba’s 9Z — for response so immediate, it feels like “real time”.

Note: The 12Z an also transmit in 1024 PCM and FM/PPM.

Switch Customizing

Reconfigure the 12Z’s eight shoulder switches to your liking. Just pull out a switch to remove it, and plug in the style you prefer — tall or short, button or toggle, spring-loaded or positionable.

Stick Customizing

A tension adjustment lets you tailor stick “feel” to your own touch. Dual ball bearings on each axis and a long-life potentiometer ensure smooth, precise control.

R5014DPS Receiver

Uses state-of-the-art Ball Grid Array (BGA) layered PC board technology. WFSS (Wireless Frequency Setting System) simplifies frequency changes — make them right from the transmitter, without changing crystals!

R5014DPS Receiver Specifications
Dimensions: 37.7 mm wide x 52.2 mm long x 16.3 mm high Weight: 32 g

Compact Flash Card Data Storage

The transmitter is capable of holding 25 models in memory. If more are required, the 32MB Compact Flash Card (sold seperately) will hold up to an additional 245 models.

Lithium-Ion Transmitter Battery

A state-of-the-art power source that delivers up to 3 hours of flying time.

Quad-Bearing Gimbals

Gimbals with long-life potentiometer, quad-bearings, adjustable tension and detent.
