If ever there was a radio that could be considered a work of art, it’s the 4PX-R. Futaba has taken the highly advanced 4PX surface system and encased the transmitter in a gleaming black chrome finish. That alone will really turn heads at the track, but it’s what the 4PX-R can do that makes this system so special.
Telemetry functions lead the long list of high-end features, enabling drivers to access important performance data that can make the difference between winning and losing. A synthesized voice delivers the information through the built-in speaker or headphones (sold separately), and a large, assignable button on the bottom of the transmitter offers instant, hands-free access to key features.
Another unique 4PX-R advantage is the full-color TFT (Thin Film Transistor) display. It’s easy to read in any light conditions, and the large, 3.5” (89 mm) LCD has intuitive menus and clearly labeled graphics. You have the freedom to use the 4PX-R with your favorite Futaba 2.4GHz receivers, thanks to compatibility with T-FHSS, S-FHSS and FASST protocols. Other outstanding highlights include durable potentiometers, multiple crawler functions, two trigger choices and a steering wheel with a drop-down option. Insert a micro memory card (sold separately) to update software and transfer models from one 4PX to another.
The list of features is seemingly limitless, but only a limited number of these extra-special radios will be produced.
