The hear of the FASST system is the R606FS receiver: there's no other 2.4GHz receiver like it!

Size and weight -
The R606FS measures 1.64 x 1.08 x 0.36 inches and weighs just 7 grams without the case...perfect for park flyers, but powerful enough to easily control giant-scale models too. It's the best of both worlds.

Full-range capability -
The competition's full-range system includes a bigger, two-piece receiver, a smaller park flyer receiver must be purchased separately. The compact R606FS unit offers "all-in-one" convenience.

Antenna stress relief -
Unlike other receivers, the R606FS uses rubber grommets to minimize stress on the antennas. This helps prevent the antenna wire from fraying, and possibly putting you model at risk.

Installation ease -
The single R606FS unit can be installed without making any modifications. The competitor's 2.4GHz system requires that their two receivers be mounted in separate locations.

Number of connections -
The competition's two receivers mean two additional connection points, doubling the potential for a problem.
