We just found out this cool radio none other than from Futaba. The Futaba 4PK 2.4Ghz FASST systems. FASST simply means Futaba Advanced Spread Spectrum Technology. Here a scoop from RCTech.

– Assignable button, trims and dials
– Digital trims and dials

Futaba has released two new servos in the form of brushless High Torque servo BLS351 and High Speed servo BLS451. There are both with metal gears. With brushless motor installed, the operation of the servo will be much cooler and thus last longer more than 5 times than normal brushed motor. Perfect for us offroaders where reliability is the main key especially in the long tough main. Info courtesy of RedRC.Net.
