16IZS Super 18-Channel 2.4G Radio Set with 7308SB Receiver
With the Futaba T16iZ Super computer remote control you make the affordable jump to the professional class! The new transmitter design with large color touch display and ergonomically optimized shape guarantees perfect operation of the clear transmitter software. The T16iZ Super supports the established transmission modes T-FHSS, FASSTest and S-FHSS.
NEW: In combination with the FUTABA SBS-01ML S.BUS Sensor Adapter (available soon) the transmitter supports the MAVLink protocol. MAVLink or Micro Air Vehicle Link is a protocol for communication with small unmanned vehicles. It is a very simple messaging protocol for communication with drones (and between drone parts on board). MAVLink follows a modern hybrid publish-subscribe and point-to-point design pattern: data streams are sent/published as topics, while configuration sub-protocols such as the mission log or parameter log are point-to-point with retransmission.
With the S-BUS/S.BUS2 servo function, all parameters of S.BUS/S.BUS2 servos can be set individually via the transmitter.
The transmitter is fully equipped with 8 switches, 2 rotary encoders and 2 rear-mounted slide encoders. All controls are ergonomically placed for perfect operation during flight. The ball bearing control sticks impress with their precision and unique adjustability. The spring force and the ratchet function can be adjusted from the outside on the joysticks. Each stick function also features digital trim. The Futaba T16IZ is furthermore equipped with an S.BUS and a headphone connection, as well as a trainer/DSC connection.
The transmitter comes standard with powerful software for motorized aircraft, gliders, helicopters and drones (multicopters). The menu navigation is available in 9 languages. Model & telemetry data can be stored and firmware updates for the transmitter can be imported via the SD card reader integrated into the transmitter.
