I figured out the hold-race/start button , on both the 4pm and the 7PXR.

'engine cut' for the 7, I use the pocket button.
'TH-off' for the 4 , I use the grip button.

This is an awesome idea! Good if starting on a track where the starting grid is on a hill too.

I have the T7XC and it has the same Engine cut mode which can be assigned to any switch. I am definitely going to try this

Default Futaba 7px battery cover

Does anyone in here know where I can buy a 7px battery cover? I did a quick search online and really can't find anything. Thanks in advance.

Default Grip handles

Has anyone tried the different size grip handles now available. There is a “small” handle and would like to know if this is smaller than the original that came with the 7PX.

I would sugest to contact a Futaba repair/service center or ask a Futaba dealer who can ask it for you.

I i find this:

Maybe you can contact the seller if he has a 7PX cover as well.

this is exactly why Futaba should have clear instructions and definitions to help the customer understand what they are for. It blows my mind that with a servo of this premium cost they have left us in the dark.

Get the wireless charger; thats an option for you. It comes with a battery cover, so you wont have to lose your battery cover??? Otherwise I would first try Futaba USA support.

Default Anyone know what the S.bus programming parameters mean/do?

Quite a while ago, someone (not me) brought up a question related to programming S.bus servos...specifically, what the various parameters mean, and what they do. Unfortunately, no one ever bothered to answer the question. Not sure if it was accidentally skipped over, or ignored, or if it's that no one really knows.

I'm about to finally use an S.bus compatible servo in the S.bus2 port, but have no clue on programming the parameters, other than setting it for the proper channel. I've searched the internet, and come up with nothing. Has anyone figured out what the parameters are/mean, and what changing them does to the functionality of the servo? I'm going to try calling Futaba USA support tomorrow, but I suspect I won't reach anyone, as I'm thinking they might be temporarily shut down due to "shelter in place" orders. Thus, I'm turning to the 7PX faithful, and hoping that at least one person in here has the answers, and can 'enlighten' the rest of us.

Will we ever see an integrated servo Rx like the spectrum unit?

Itseems to simplify things considerably, saves space and wires and generally makes things neater.
