any futaba 3pk owners out there?

just got one of these tx’s, awesome chunk of technology!

in order to use the fancy hrs rx i need to buy digital servos and i also need the dsc (direct servo cable) to be able to program my esc.

i don’t need to buy one, i can make one myself but i need to know one thing.
how is the mono plug wired? my assumption is the red wire is the tip but i don’t wanna make a costly mistake.

anyone got one they wanna check for me?

Betty, no need for digital servos for a PCM or HRS or PPM type RX analouge will work fine,
ase for your DSC
is it a 3.5mm mono like a JR if so simple
3.5mm mono to 3.5mm mono cable. Tip to Tip, Sleeve to Sleeve

i definately gotta use digital servos with the fm 27mhz hrs module/rx. there’s lotsa great big warnings in the manual about how regular analogue servos will catch fire, etc! i’m not willing to chance it.

no matter, i got digi servos coming and with the am 27mhz module i’m able to run what i own.

in the manual it says i may be able to program my esc through the rx but maybe not due to a clash in frequency between the hrs rx and regular esc.
if that happens there is a special feature of the tx where i can program the esc directly from the tx using the dsc.

so, as i wuz asking before, do you think the tip on that 3.5mm phono plug is the red wire?:8ball:
