Futaba T6PV - 6-channel Radio - with R404SBS-E receiver
High-middle radio with fastest response function
This is a mid-high class transmitter that adds the elements of the T10PX to the operability of the T4PM Puls. The full-color display allows intuitive operation. In addition, by supporting the fastest system "F-4G", it is easier to feel the "response/feeling function" that gives stability to operation.
- The T6PV transmitter is compatible with "F-4G", "T-FHSS", "S-FHSS", and "MINI-Z" modes.
- The R404SBS and R404SBS-E are receivers compatible with "F-4G".
- F-4G system and UR mode provide high-speed response approaching that of the T10PX radio (*Note 1).
- Equipped with 6 system modes: F-4G, T-FHSS, S-FHSS, MINI-Z EVO, MINI-Z EVO2 & MINI-Z FHSS
Although T-FHSS SR mode is not supported, the servo's "SR mode" can still be used in the servo settings of the F-4G system.
- Normal, Big, and Drift "Model Types"
- Also equipped with settings for crawlers
- Response/Feeling adjustment function: By adding a mild flavor while taking advantage of the high-speed response, it becomes easier to drive.
- Supports up to 6 channels (*Note 2)
- Lightest in its class & high balance design
- Equipped with micro SD card slot
- The micro SD card is used to save model data, telemetry data, display photos of your car on the transmitter, and when updating the software. (Micro SD card sold separately. Supports SD/SDHC, not SDXC)
- New wheel unit/APA/APA angler/trigger (*Note 3)
- Grip rubber: In addition to the included size (M), you can choose a size that is easy to use from the optional grip rubber (S or L).
- Wheel position can be adjusted with the steering APA (Included: Steering APA (24.0) & Angle spacer (5°)
- Trigger end point adjustment: If you use the optional T10PX dedicated trigger setting parts set, you can adjust the end point in the throttle (=FWD) direction with the spacer, so you can adjust the throttle operation to your preferred feeling.
- Setup with high-brightness wide-angle full-color LCD and jog key
Batteries (not included):
- Requires dry cell batteries (AA). Optional LiFe batteries (FT2F1100B, FT2F1700B V2, FT2F2100B V2) can also be used.
- For LiFe batteries, a non-contact charger (LF-02) can also be used.
- Optional batteries such as LiPo batteries for Tx (LT2F2000B) and nickel-metal hydride batteries for Tx (HT5F1800B) can also be used.
*Note 1: Be sure to use servos that are compatible with UR mode.
*Note 2: When using channels 5 and 6 in F-4G mode, use an S.BUS2 servo or SBD-2 with the S.BUS2 port on the R404SBS/R404SBS-E.
*Note 3: Adjustable Positioning Adaptor - Adapter for changing position
Functions and Specifications:
Setup menu:
- Receiver settings (F-4G / T-FHSS / S-FHSS, and MINI-Z compatible)
- Please refer to here for a list of our receivers that support each system.
- MINI-Z is also compatible with MINI-Z EVO, MINI-Z EVO2, and MINI-Z FHSS (*Note 4).
- The telemetry function is only available in F-4G and T-FHSS modes. It cannot be used in S-FHSS and MINI-Z modes.
*Note 4: MINI-Z FHSS requires the MINI-Z FS-RM005 module (manufactured by Kyosho Corporation).
- Servo view: Allows you to check the servo operation of all channels. You can check the operation when adjusting the steering angle or setting the mixing function.
- Throttle mode: Allows you to set the neutral brake, which applies the brakes when the throttle trigger is in the neutral position.
- Reverse: This function determines the direction in which servos and other devices operate in response to the operation of the steering, throttle, channel 3/4, and other auxiliary channels of the transmitter.
- Sub trim: Used when assembling a model to fine-tune the center position of the servo horn that serves as the reference for the servo horn of each servo and the linkage that connects the parts with rods.
- End point: Used during linkage to adjust the steering angle left and right, the throttle high side/brake side operation amount, and the up side/down side operation amount of channel 3/4 and other auxiliary channels.
- Fail-safe function: This function sets the servo operation position in case the receiver is unable to receive the transmitter signal for some reason or the receiver battery voltage drops. The failsafe, hold, and OFF modes will be automatically released when signals from the transmitter are received again.
- Acceleration: The throttle forward/brake ramp-up characteristics near neutral can be adjusted separately.
- Trim/dial settings: The functions that can be operated with the digital trim (DT1 to DT6) and dial (DL1) can be set.
- Switch settings: Select the functions to be operated with the push switches (SW1 to SW3) and set the operation method.
- Idle up: Used to improve engine starting by raising the idling when starting the engine of a gasoline engine car (boat). This function is also effective when you want to prevent braking when the power is turned off while driving due to the gear ratio settings or the motor used in an electric car. However, if you are using MC971CR, MC970CR, MC960CR, MC950CR, MC851C, MC602C, MC402CR, etc., as with the neutral brake function, turn on the idle up function switch after the ESC recognizes the neutral position and becomes operable.
- D/R, ATL
- Channel setting: This function allows you to assign steering or throttle to any channel. This is a convenient function when you want to use steering or throttle on a different channel, or when you want other channels to operate in the same way as steering or throttle.

Racing Menu:
- Curve (EXP): Steering, throttle, and brake can be set separately.
- Speed: Steering and throttle can be set separately.
- Traction control: By operating the throttle intermittently, you can steer smoothly and drive on the ideal line. In addition, in drift cars, you can reproduce a pseudo rev limiter sound by operating the motor intermittently in the high point direction.
- A.B.S.: In full-time 4WD cars, if you apply the brakes while cornering, the car will understeer, but by using this function, you can clear the corner smoothly.
- Start: Simply operate the throttle trigger slowly without losing grip, and the trigger position will automatically switch to the preset point, allowing for a smooth start.
- Engine cut: This function operates the throttle servo to a preset position (engine cut position) so that the engine can be stopped with a switch.
- Response/Feeling: This function makes the response milder when you feel that the servo response is too sensitive and difficult to operate. The mild side will slow the response, and the aggressive side will make the response faster. Feeling adjustment OFF provides the fastest response.
- Drag racing (trans brake): Stopping the vehicle with the throttle (trigger) fully open and releasing the trans brake allows for sharp acceleration.
