Precision Control with the Futaba 4YF_C3

For RC hobbyists demanding repeatable precision, the Futaba 4YF_C3 2.4GHz FHSS Radio System delivers dependable four-channel control. The matched R2004GF receiver brings uncomplicated installation and reliable link quality for a variety of models.

Reliable FHSS Link for Cleaner Signal

The core FHSS design in the 4YF_C3 avoids fixed-frequency issues and reduces interference by hopping channels dynamically. The simple pushbutton linking removes the need for binding plugs, making initial setup quick and fuss-free.

Practical Receiver Layout and Power Down Mode

The R2004GF receiver has a coaxial antenna that can be routed for best reception inside tight airframes or boats. Power Down Mode temporarily lowers RF output for 90 seconds to make ground interference checks easier during pre-run inspections.

Controls and Installation Flexibility

The Futaba 4YF_C3 supports all-channel servo reversing so you can adapt servo orientation to custom installs. Power and servo reverse switches are positioned to avoid accidental flips, while the battery meter uses LED cues for a clear GO/NO GO indication. Knurled gimbal tops help keep a secure grip in longer sessions.

Install four fresh AA cells of a reliable brand; alkaline or NiMH can be used, but NiMH will provide more consistent voltage under load.
Yes, but place the coaxial antenna away from large carbon or metal surfaces and keep it oriented for best reception. Test range on the ground before flying.
Power Down Mode lowers RF output for 90 seconds so you can perform interference checks and range tests at reduced power, helping you diagnose local sources of noise safely.
