i have an FP-TF-AM module i'd like to use on a project but need to know the pinout. this is from an old FG and i no longer have the encoder board which would have been a great help.

i also assume the pinout for the old FM module would be the same.

anyone have any help to offer?

Hi Dave,

I've used the small Futaba RX module in the Radios that accept the bigger modules, it worked. ( The Futaba 27MHz AM module in a Hitec Optic and also in a Futaba FG " Gold " )

Based on that this may help

so it's the same pinout as the newer modules and just the size is different.

bruce abbott has posted the newer pinout here so i guess i'll look it up and try it out.

thanks,
dave

Yes, same pinout.

I tried it in the FG after I couldn't get the AM module to work in the Optic ... but it was just a "crystal" issue.
