@kingazza12311 The 4PKS has faster signal speed, a few more menu options for rock crawler type stuff, different trigger, more steering wheel angle adjustments, different navigation button. The 4PKS comes with a smaller receiver, which can handle a 2S LiPo battery pack. They stopped making the 4PK a year ago.
I just picked up a 4PL myself and weening me back out of Spektrum and back to Futaba. My first was a 3PM Magnum FM...years if reliable service on my Baja. Decided to go 2.4 with what I had laying around so bound that to my 2PL. 4PL controls my scale trucks, rock racers, and my FT RC8Be. Go Futaba!
Does the HPI turns solid red when linked up ? reason I asked is its the only one that was Red when you started and was flashing when you got to about 1330 feet !
Very nice to see an actual test, glad my car can go further than I can see safely!! lol

Why in the world were you banned off the baja forms?

Futaba sells better radios than spektrum for lower prices! Exept for the 14MZ ($2,500

this is not true, Futaba themselves says 4pks has only range of 240 feet.

@lanedtul Futaba must be very modest. They go way farther than 240ft.

@pb2themax
i did a range test myself with it soon as i got the repaired reciever, it had a bad antennae wire, i went almost 1/4 mile and still no signal loss.

Does the 4pks have telemetry ?
TheBlader9 1 year ago
@TheBlader9 No. Thats just Spektrum. The telemetry stuff has limited range and isn't very reliable anyway, IMO.

@TheBlader9 The Airtronics MT-4 also has Telemetry.

That's a good idea, thanks for the test. I thought they would be good for 2-300 feet at best. That's amazing.

Thanks for test! I recently ordered a new Futaba 4PL and it's good to know that range will not be an isuue. 1330 ft is way beyond what I'll need.
