Futaba T16IZ Super + TM-18 Transmitter

Manufacturer: Futaba Corporation
Model: T16IZ Super + TM-18

The birth of a next-generation radio that transcends class boundaries

The T16IZ, beloved by many enthusiasts, has undergone a minor change! It now features a dark pearl plating for an even more luxurious feel. It is also compatible with the Pixhawk drone flight controller by using the optional SBS-01ML.

Features

I set up a 920MHz backup system on the T16IZ Super.

By communicating in the 920MHz band in parallel with the 2.4GHz system, a safer flight is ensured.

2.4GHz FASSTest, FASST-Multi, FASST-7ch, S-FHSS, T-FHSS Air system compatible

AdRCSS (920MHz backup system) : TM-18/R9001SB included
4.3-inch color TFT-LCD: Equipped with a touch panel for intuitive operation.
Edit button: You can switch to the home screen or user menu screen using the edit buttons located on the left and right.
Volume knob, slide lever: Equipped with volume knobs on both sides of the front and slide levers on the left and right back of the shoulders.

Handle with brim: By extending the brim on the back of the handle, you can change the angle at which the main unit is laid down.

Equipped with a microSD card slot (card sold separately) and a USB connector (Type C) for connecting to the simulator
Pixhawk® parameters can be monitored via the transmitter.
You can display data from a drone flight controller (Pixhawak) by using the optional accessory (SBS-01ML) sold separately .

Functions and specifications

*This product does not come with a cable to connect the 2.4GHz receiver (R7308SB) and the 920MHz receiver (R9001SB).
Please prepare a gyro cable　of the required length separately.
