This is the Futaba 4PKS-R 4-Channel 2.4GHz FASST Radio System with an included Futaba R614FS receiver. A transmitter that’s 5% faster - with additional mixing options, a more comfortable wheel grip and more. These are a few of the upgrades the Futaba team of engineers developed for the 4PK Super R. And the 4PK Super R comes equipped with the R614FS 2.4GHz FASST 4-Channel Receiver. The R614FS is a compact, lightweight, high-voltage unit, offering Dual Antenna Diversity that selects the best reception between two antennas and Pre-Vision™ technology that scans and filters incoming data. With the introduction of the 4PK Super R, the premier Futaba surface system for competitive drivers is better than ever!
Features:
- 5% faster response speed
- Lighter in weight thanks to titanium screws, a shorter antenna and aluminum neck strap hardware
- Dual compound steering wheel foam grip for greater comfort
- Model data transfer via cable
- Gyro mixing – compatible with Futaba’s new GYC430 gyro
- Dual ESC mixing – ideal for crawlers
- The included R614FF 2.4GHz FASST receiver is compact (1.38x0.91x0.33 inches) and lightweight (0.27 ounces), with much higher usable voltage (from 3.5V to 8.4V). Also available separately (FUTL7633).

I got the 'R' version as I am thinking to build a crawler soon. Cant really find anything negative to say.
A big step from my old system, a Spectrum DX3S.
Recommend this radio for those who want a Futuba and the best of the best.
