Stable Radio Performance with the Futaba R148DP

The Futaba R148DP offers 8-channel PCM reception in a mini DC format for hobby flyers focused on reliable control. With narrow-band spacing and dual conversion filtering, the receiver improves signal integrity and reduces susceptibility to interference when paired with transmitters that support model memory. It is well suited to pilots juggling multiple aircraft or tight installation spaces.

Main Advantages of the R148DP

  • Advanced Filtering: Dual conversion filtering for reduced background noise and steadier links.
  • Multi-Model Use: Compatible with transmitters that manage several model profiles.
  • Compact Build: Small footprint and low weight for neat installation in compact airframes.

Specifications

  • Narrow Band: 20KHz
  • Intermediate Frequency: 1st IF: 10.7MHz, 2nd IF: 455kHz
  • Power Requirements: 4.8 to 6.0 volts (shared with servos)
  • Current Drain: 14mA
  • Dimensions: Length: 55.5mm, Width: 25.5mm, Height: 22.5mm
  • Weight: 30.4g

The Futaba R148DP combines compact size with robust filtering to help maintain precise control during flight, making it a pragmatic choice for model pilots.

What should I check before installing the R148DP?

Confirm the transmitter band and crystal match the receiver, plan antenna routing for minimal obstruction, and verify the shared power arrangement with servos is within 4.8 to 6.0 volts.

Can I use this receiver in aerobatic models?

Yes, its low current draw and reliable PCM reception make it suitable for aerobatic aircraft, provided servos and battery can handle the flight loads.

How do I minimise interference during club flying?

Use proper antenna placement, keep metal away from the receiver, and ensure your transmitter and receiver crystals or frequency settings are correctly matched to avoid adjacent-channel conflicts.
