Futaba Transmitters

[chevys10zr2003]

I have a Futaba 4PLS and today I received my new 4PM. I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to copy everything from the 4PLS to the 4PM or do I need to reprogram everything?

There's some tech support numbers/extensions on their repair contact page: https://futabausa.com/repairs/
Scroll down the bottom. The middle guy is the "surface expert" and could probably talk you through it if there's an option to do so.

I got a response from Bobby. You can't copy settings from one transmitter to another. That sucks lol but was also the answer that I was expecting.

I feel your pain. Just replaced my spektrum radio with a new one. Oddly, still had to fiddle with a lot of the EPA's after binding. Took me a couple hours of clicking and beeping to "copy" over my settings for 10 vehicles... hopefully this one will last me 4+ years like my last one. Last one still worked, just wanted more screen and an antenna that didn't stick out as I broke it off a couple times.

Yeah I'm not looking forward to copying everything over for my 7 vehicles that I have on the Futaba system. I'm keeping my 4PLS to have as my backup and also so I have a second Futaba for when others want to drive with me. This last winter for my crawlers I would bring 4 rigs and one remote, which was awesome until one of my buddies wanted to try one of my rigs and couldn't because I was using the only remote.
