Will it be left hand compatible?

Edit: Nevermind. Looks like it will judging from this picture. http://data9.blog.de/media/728/78007...5f26a07_o.jpeg

If its 30% faster than the 4pksr, would it still not be "far" from as fast as the current M12?

It is Fasst if you use a Fasst receiver with it. The one it comes with is the R304SB which is a type T-FHHS telemetry receiver but this radio can be set model by model to modulate in all types of Futaba's technologies including Fasst, S-FHHS and T-FHHS.

That means your collection of Fasst receivers will still work with the 4PX.

That's a bummer that none of my current FASST receivers will work, but at least the FHSS receivers are inexpensive.
