MODULE: TP-FM/TM-10 2.4G
• Module may be easily removed and a module on a different channel (or even band) reinserted to change the frequency on
which the 10C transmits.
• TP-FM module transmits both FM (
PPM
) and
PCM
. No need for a second module. TM-10 2.4GHz module transmits both
2.4G-7ch
and
2.4G-10ch
.
• All transmission circuitry is included in the module, so no retuning is needed when changing channels or even bands.
• Frequency band is changed by inserting a module on the proper band, including for international or ground model use.
• TP-72 FM module:
In North America
it is against FCC regulation to change
the crystal within the transmitter module

properly tune a system to its new channel may result in decreased range and may also result in interference to other types
of frequency users on adjoining channels.

• The FSS synthesized module for the 9Z family of radios is
NOT
compatible with the 10C.
• Radio system beeps and RF LIGHT goes out to indicate module is not installed and radio is not transmitting.
• TP-75 FM modules may also be used with the 10C for ground use modules such as robotics, rocketry, trains, cars, and
boats.
RECEIVER: R138/R148/R1410/R6014FS
• The R138 or R148 FM 8-channel or the R138 PCM 8-channel or R1410 PCM 10-channel receiver included with your
system is a high-sensitivity narrow-band dual-conversion receiver. The R6014FS 2.4GHz 14-channel is FASST-2.4GHz
Multi-ch mode receiver.
• Note that your 10C transmitter with TP-FM module or TM-10 2.4G module is capable of transmission on both
PPM
(FM)
and
PCM
or on both
2.4G-7ch
and
2.4G-10ch
with just a simple programming change and just turning the transmitter off
and back on. (See p. 35.)
• Any Futaba narrow band FM receiver (all produced after 1991) on the correct frequency band and frequency may be used
with the 10C.
• Any Futaba PCM 1024 receiver on the right frequency band and frequency may be used with the 10C (all 1024 receivers

• Futaba FASST-2.4G R6014FS or R608FS receiver may be used with the 10C at
2.4G-10ch
mode. Futaba FASST-2.4G
R607FS or R617FS receiver may be used with the 10C at
2.4G-7ch
mode.

FASST transmitter module, system
and receiver compatibility
• 72MHz band: NEVER attempt to change a receiver’s band by simply changing crystal (i.e. removing a 72MHz crystal
and inserting a 75MHz crystal). A receiver that has a crystal installed from a different frequency band without retuning
will not receive properly and will have dramatically decreased range.
In North America the receiver included with this system may have its frequency changed by simply changing the crystal
as long as it remains in the same half the band. A low band receiver between channels 11 and 35 may be changed to any
other channel between 11 and 35 without requiring any tuning. A high band receiver between channels 36 and 60 may
similarly be changed. Receivers being changed from a high band channel to a low band or vice versa require proper
tuning and service by the Futaba Service Center.
