Futaba 12FGH Overview for Helicopter Flyers

When helicopter handling and programmable control matter, the Futaba 12FGH gives pilots a robust platform for tuning and flying. It carries technology seen in higher-tier Futaba transmitters while focusing on helicopter-ready presets and useful flight controls.

Core Strengths of the 12FGH

The Futaba 12FGH is aimed at committed RC pilots. It transmits on 40MHz and comes with the R5114DPS synthesized 14-channel receiver plus the reliable S9255 servos. Helicopter defaults simplify initial setup and the non-ratcheted throttle stick helps maintain smooth, precise power changes.

Performance, Mixing and Storage Details

Offering Real-Time Response with 2048PCM, the 12FGH remains compatible with 1024 PCM and FM/PPM formats. It supports 10 programmable mixes and saves 30 models to FLASH-ROM, with an option to expand to 1882 models via a 1GB SD card for extensive model libraries.

Servo Grouping enables multiple servos to share a function without external synchronizers, and End Point Adjustment per servo is handled from the transmitter to fine tune throws and linkage behavior.

Ergonomics and Control Layout

Quad-bearing gimbals ensure smooth stick travel and adjustable tension helps pilots dial in a preferred feel. The LCD has contrast control to aid readability, and the front-mounted sliders provide quick access to commonly used switches.

Specifications

  • Operating System: 2-stick, 12 channels, PCM-G3 synthesizer system
  • Modulation: PCM-G3, PCM 1024, FM/PPM switchable
  • Receiver Frequency: US only 72MHz bands
  • Transmitter Battery: 7.2V 1700mAh NiMH
  • Servo Speed: 0.16 sec/60° @ 4.8V
  • Servo Torque: 125 oz-in (9.0 kg-cm) @ 4.8V

For pilots managing multiple helicopters or those needing precise control options, the Futaba 12FGH offers flexible programming and dependable flight performance.

Model selection is managed via the transmitter menu and stored profiles in FLASH-ROM. With the optional SD card you can keep many model files and swap quickly between setups.
The synthesized R5114DPS receiver and WFSS features simplify frequency management, making it practical to operate in crowded fields without changing crystals.
Pilots often upgrade batteries for longer transmitter runtime or add higher torque servos on control surfaces. Firmware updates and careful servo calibration also improve performance.
The transmitter's mix and expo options allow you to soften responses and create gentler throttle curves suitable for students or low-speed training flights.
