I know they are not the same but I have experienced a Fail safe condition on my Futaba 9ZAP on two occasions, Both times it turned out to be an antenna problem on the transmitter. I was able to save the airplane both times<BR>
The antenna and antenna contacts were changed and I have had no problems since, that was two years ago. I send my equipment in for service and check out every year, the cost is about $100.00 each time. To put it in as new operating condition, I have them change the antenna each time it goes in, money well spent, mine is nine years old and still works perfect.<BR>
