Futaba 16IZS 2.4GHz 18-Channel FASSTest Air Transmitter System

The Futaba 16IZS combines extensive aircraft programming, multiple Futaba 2.4GHz protocols, telemetry capability, and an intuitive color touchscreen in a professional 18-channel radio system. This transmitter-only package is ideal for pilots who already own compatible Futaba receivers or want to select the receiver best suited to their aircraft.

With support for airplanes, helicopters, gliders, and multicopters, the 16IZS can handle everything from sport models and scale aircraft to complex turbine jets and competition helicopters.
