M17S – 2.4GHz Radio System – incl. RX-493i Receiver

The Sanwa M17S is the successor to the incredibly successful M17. The M17S now operates exclusively in FH5 mode, which guarantees the fastest transmission rates between transmitter and receiver.
All “old” Sanwa FH3 and FH4 receivers are no longer supported by the new M17S. With the M17S, Sanwa is consistently moving toward the future!

Highlights – New Innovations for New Records

The M17S achieves a new, world-leading response time with the new FH5U system.
FH5U transmits twice as much data as FH5. This results in smoother handling and faster response, enabling compatibility with SXR mode.
