    Hi .
    I just ordered a Mövi M5.

    Is there an integrated reciever in the M5 that works with a Futaba
    T10 cg transmitter ?

    How many channels needs the mövi ?

    Regards Jochen

    Jochen you would need a Futaba sBus receiver. It will plug into the MoVI control box (need to remove a small side cover that protects the attachment point). There is no integrated RX. 10CG should work well.

    MoVI needs 6 channels. Sticks for 4 channels, 3 way switch for Remote Mode and a rotary for Remote Tilt Rate.

    Thanks Gary,
    But i am a bit confused now.
    I send a mail to the mövi support and got a mail from Rich .
    He wrote that the 10cg wont work , because it is not the old fhss system.
    He told me that only the 6-10 J series will work.

    Jochen I spoke to Rich. What he was saying was that the receiver that ships with the 10CG is usually a R5014HS RX. That RX does not have an sBus port. With the exception of the FASSTest RX, any of the other sBus RX's will work. Examples include the R6202BW, R6208SB. See the grid at http://www.futaba-rc.com/receivers/air.html. You want an RX that has at least 1 s.Bus port, no s.Bus 2 ports, is FASST compatible.

    Seems that each of the Futaba TX's ship with different RX and normally you can't but the TX you want without an included TX. I run the 14SG and it is a FASSTest TX. It works with any of the FASST RX that are SB (backwards compatible) but the included RX a R7008SB won't work at all with the MoVI. Something about s.Bus on the new RX's isn't compatible.

    Thanks Gary / Rich.
    I will order the R6208SB and use 2 channels for camera trigger and changing the stop.

    Warm regards Jochen

    The R6208sb works fine. Connect it via sbus and you have 2 free channels to trigger the camera and to change the stop.
