[@dackerman123]

I think this will be my next radio. Thanks for the review

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Excellent choice! Thank you for watching!

[@blakeyoxtheimer914]

Picked up this radio, highly recommended!

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Glad you are enjoying it!

[@olegbaturin3122]

Nice review! Thanks!

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Thanks for watching!

[@isaiahfurrow7414]

I'd love to snag one with 2 SR recievers bundled like that... Debating picking up a Futaba, and or a midrange Sanwa... to give them a try...

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

This definitely a great value and good quality radio unit.

[@timsanders5779]

I'm confused….I thought the unit required 3 AA batteries and not 4. Did I miss something?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Thank you for watching! It is definitely 4x AA. futabausa.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/4pmp_e2_let.pdf

[@SnarkyRC]

The 4PM uses 3 AA and the 4PM Plus uses 4 AA. I'd skip the AA batteries and use a LiFe battery pack. It lasts way longer.

[@ssjinl]

I’m new to the hobby and I’d like to know how can I use a life battery on my 4pm plus what might I need in order to convert or how would i go on about connecting the battery

[@teozaf9287]

Do you need any extra sensor for the telemetry? Or the receiver is enough for temperature and RPM? Thanks

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

You will need additional sensors for temperature and RPM.

[@tristar3005]

Just ordered one for myself, upgrading from my old Flysky GT3 as I'm getting more into racing. Looking at getting into mini z racing at some point too.

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Great choice!

[@KillaHerz85]

Wanted to buy it until I tried Flysky Noble. I still can't understand how Futaba and Sanwa can compete with NB4 in mid range transmitters. And I got it on Christmas sale at a sick price of 135 EUR with 2 receivers....

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

The Flysky Noble certainly offers good value for it's price. Give it some time and Futaba & Sanwa will have new competing models.

[@motostar508]

What is the difference between the 4PM and the 4PM plus?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Thank you for watching. The 4PM plus has updated software that allows it to directly control some Kyosho MiniZ.

[@goodboyringo9716]

Does it only work with Futaba servos ?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Many brands of servos will work with this radio.

[@goodboyringo9716]

@@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne ... Does it work with Hitec servos ?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Yes.

[@gonzodetroitify]

Awesome for sharing bud😎💯 but with those long cables could they also be wrapped in inside a reciever box and still have good range Thanks for sharing

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Thank you for watching! Do you mean the antenna wire?

[@olegbaturin3122]

The only part of the antenna wire which is working - is the short stripped piece. This stripped piece is actual antenna. The rest is just a cable and you can keep it inside of the receiver box if you need to do so. The long cable however, is the great mean of delivering the antenna to the right place, especially if you, for example, wanna use this receiver on a boat

[@SamuraiBlues5]

can this be converted to left hand steering?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

No, this transmitter does not have convertible steering wheel.

[@jguillermoii]

Is it as fast as the 10px minus extra features?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

The 10PX offers higher speed and resolution when used with the new 10PX receivers.

[@Statek63]

@@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne but only with the top of the line UR servos, other modes are the same as T4PM, SR mode is almost as fast as UR. Also the servo latency matters a lot.

[@adrianserene7073]

Is it compatible with Losi gasoline cars..?

[@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne]

Yes, this radio will work fine.
