Futaba 12FGA 40MHz Transmitter for Precise RC Flying

The Futaba 12FGA is a finely engineered radio system aimed at flyers who demand consistent control. It brings the response and programmable options that experienced pilots rely on, suitable for both aeroplane and helicopter use.

Detailed Control and Legacy Support

With PCM G3 2048 resolution the 12FGA offers enhanced control fidelity. It remains compatible with older 1024 PCM and can operate in FM/PPM modes for wider equipment compatibility. The R5114DPS synthesized receiver offers Mode A for normal operation and Mode B to improve performance in high RF interference situations.

Rich Configuration for Different Aircraft

The radio features 24 preset model types and supports eight flight conditions to handle varied flying profiles. It covers six no-tail wing configurations and eight helicopter swash types to accommodate many aircraft. Variable Dual Rates and exponential settings let you tune stick response for smoother control.

Hands-On Control and Comfort

Designed for comfortable handling, the 12FGA includes quad-bearing gimbals for smooth movement and adjustable tension settings with detents for personal preference. Front slider switches provide quick access for in-flight adjustments.

The Futaba 12FGA provides the configurability and link stability many pilots need to refine handling and achieve consistent results in the air.

Follow the receiver bind procedure in the manual, ensure clean power to both units and select an appropriate mode. Check antenna positions and test control surfaces before flight.
Use small increments of exponential to soften stick sensitivity around centre, and set dual rates lower for landing to reduce control authority for gentler inputs.
Check official Futaba support channels for firmware and update instructions. Keeping firmware current can add compatibility and improve features where updates are provided.
Verify model setup, servo directions, endpoint limits, battery charge, and receiver connection. Do a range check and confirm flight condition selection prior to take off.
