Basically it changes the channel assignments automatically according to the reciever you're using. G3 has different channel assignments than a 6114. Until now you need to confirm the new channel assignments even with a new model. Probably now it doesn't ask anymore

Thanks for this confirmation. I have just change a friend 's model from PCM G3 to 2.4 Ghz and I was happy to see that even with a new channel assignment I didn't have to set again all curves, dual rates and others. I remenber when I changed from PCM 1024 to PCM G3 throttle curves where reset and all function that were assigned to different channel were to be set again.
This release is definitly worth doing it!

Yeah, only problem is that I can't get my hands on the actual update or I would try it out myself.

On Futaba's Japanese page you just have to enter your radio serial number with all the zeros (whatever it is a 14MZ, 12Z, 12FG or FX40) and then on the download page look at the zip file which is dated 2008/06/06 for your radio.

If you don't succeed PM me your email and I will send it to you.

For the SER. # put eight "0's" in the ser#. That will get you going.

Thx

I ended putting my real serial number in and it worked. Thx for the 0 tip though. Next time when at work I won't have to be calling the wife and asking her to check out the numbers on my 14mz lol

I am wondering if in fact any 8 digit number works...
They better just give direct access to the dowload page.

MZFAN,

I wonder if can I upgrade my 14MZ with the software in the japanese site.... I mean , it is not a different versions in USA and Europe..... ? USA sotware can be updated with the japanese site download...?

Best regards....!

Hi,
I did it with my radio which is not Japanese and until now all the release that had the same version number were identical, wathever they came from Robbe, FFC or Futaba Japan.

When 2.4Ghz came out in USA and Europa there was many different versions depending on where they came from. It is why there was some differences. At this time 2.4 Ghz was not legal in Japan and Futaba Japan didn't release anything. Now that 2.4 Ghz is out in Japan too I bet all new release will originate and be distributed from there.

Thanks for the info !

The software is now available on the Futaba USA website.

This was stated in the OP: Model Selection: Can now sort models by date, name or manual order, woohoo! (manual mode not available on models stored on the card)

Can someone please tell me how to access and use this feature as it's not obvious to me on my 14MZ?
