The Top One, and Futaba Quality. The FX-32 is a fully expanded High-End 18-channel console transmitter with integrated telemetry functions, exploiting 2.4 GHz FASSTest® Technology.
Futaba's FASSTest® technology ensures outstanding transmission security and a direct, extremely precise sensation of control.
This, combined with a comprehensive range of functions and the renowned quality of Futaba products makes the FX-32 the perfect transmitter for every demanding model pilot.
The outstanding features of the transmitter case are its uncluttered design, light weight, and ergonomic arrangement of the controls. The large, centrally positioned, high-resolution, backlit 128 x 64 dot graphic screen ensures good legibility in all light conditions.
The graphic user interface, with the renowned, simple Futaba menu structure, makes the unit very simple to operate. The menu structure can be displayed in any of 7 languages. The uncluttered design of the system is made possible by the new Cap-Touch system: zero-contact sensors form a 3D hot-key, and allow a smooth, sealed surface devoid of projecting controls. Experience the new sensation of control using the special precision dual-axis stick units, with digital trims and trim value memory. The side-mounted rotary controls provide a practical means of operating auxiliary functions without taking your fingers from the sticks.

- 100 mW transmitter power
- Real-Time Response
- The latency (interval between moving the stick and the servo's response) of the FASST / FASSTest® system is much faster than other 2.4 GHz systems.
- Extreme range >3000m
- Ultra-fast, direct, completely digital modulation for super-fast response
- Switchable FASSTest® High-Speed mode: ultra-fast frame rate of 6.3 ms for digital servos (12-channel, reduced telemetry functions)
- Easy Link - extremely simple, fast binding process between transmitter and receiver
- Ultra-fast, reliable, automatic re-binding even under difficult conditions
- Intelligent servo timing ensures simultaneous servo movement, preventing differential servo response
- Dual Aerial Diversity – lightning-fast switching between two receiver aerials for optimum reception signal quality (depending on receiver type)
- Pre-Vision – FASST / FASSTest® receivers constantly scan the input signal and apply intelligent Futaba error correction.
- No loss of response speed even when the frequency band is densely occupied
- Integral range test function for checking effective range before launching the model
- Modulation can be switched to FASST or FHSS for downward compatibility with existing Futaba components
