Anyone else using the new Futaba 4YWD?

[HOMER.07]

I am currently using the Futaba 4YF 2.4GHz on my 1/16 Tamiya Leopard 2A6 and have only had the sound drop off a few times, other than that works good.

I am looking at getting the new Futaba 4YWD 2.4GHz for my new 1/14 Tamiya Knight Hauler and MFC-01, so fingers crossed things will be okay with the radio I receive.

Looks like Tamiya will be offering a rebranded Futaba 4YWD that will work with an MFU.

Now that Futaba Japan have sent me a new receiver, everything works as it should.
I have nothing but praise for this new radio and both my tank and trucks work flawlessly with them.

I think you both would be more than happy with the operation of this unit.

Todd, it was inevitable that Tamiya would have a rebranded version and these also come in the Japanese Only Full Sets (i.e, tractor, mfu, radio, battery, charger).

All the best
