I never jumped onto the Spektrum bandwagon as a lot of people did (nothing against Spektrum) I just wanted to wait to see what Futaba would bring to the market. I started with a 6ch Futaba setup flying lots of smaller electrics, then stepped up to the 10c after that. I liked the 10c since I could use my old 72MHz modules in it. However, I never once used any of my 72MHz stuff. I took it all to the swap meet and sold
all of it and have not looked back. Peace of mind is worth a lot.</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; background-color: transparent;"><span></span> </div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; background-color: transparent;"><span>I have converted a couple of older radios (7UAP and 8UAPS) with the TM-7 and TM-8 modules and they work well, but the 12Z I believe has the native 2.4ghz connector that should give it much quicker reponse (less latency).

<div>Thanks for the advice on my 12Z conversion. Expensive conversion but
