[NSRCA-discussion] Another Futaba Hidden Problem

[Jay Marshall]

Evidently so, Archie. My point is that none of this info seems to be evident
on the Futaba site. I jumped through a lot of hoops with my LHS before I got
a hint of this.

There are two versions of the FASST system.  The older FASST TX only binds
to certain receivers and has to be upgraded.  I believe it is a free
upgrade, but am not 100% sure.  I believe that is what he means by the I
stick on the serial number on the transmitter.

The following message is of a conversation I am presently having with
Futaba. I can't find any reference to the problem on their site. Has anyone
else had the same problem?

 

*************************

Does the receiver have an orange "B" by the seventh channel?  Has your
transmitter been updated including the "I" sticker by the serial number?

My T6EX xmtr links to my R606FS receiver with no problem. It will not,
however, link to my new R617FS receiver. The LED goes blinking green,
blinking red when the Easy Link button is pressed, then blinking green. What
is the problem?
