•FEATURES
The FP-3EG is a high quality 3 channel, expanded digital proportional radio control set.
The receiver and servo power is a four-battery; 4.8V (Ni-Cad)/6.0V (Dry-Cell). The
transmitter power supply is 9.6V (Ni-Cad)/10.5V (Dry-Cell). 3FG with S24 servos
only comes with Ni-cads for both
highest in its class.
