FRSKY X12S Futaba Module

Post by 25wood25 »

I am aware that Flytron make an adaptor board that allows a Futaba TM7 transmitter module fit in the back of a Horus X12S so that FAAST receivers can be used ( does this work???) but there does not seem to be any information on a conversion board for a Futaba TM14 module to go into the XJT dock of the Horus ( I know it has more pins). It seems strange that Frsky who have for years made rock solid FAAST compatible receivers do not make a FAAST transmitter module for the X12S so that these receivers can continue to be used. Any Information would be helpfull.

The TM14 does not use a standard communication protocol with the radio it's mounted in, and nobody ever reverse-engineered that.

Thanks for the reply Kilrah,
I have found that a few years ago hobbico made a module that fitted in a JR transmitter to enable it to control FASST receivers unfortunately they are no longer available Hobbico jm912 fasst module Also sold by Ripmax UK as ripmax tm12-mx fasst module. I cannot find a second hand one on any site. Regards
