umm, found that the little form they included for joining the club to be only for US residents.. does this mean that only those residents are entitled for downloads and updates?
is there a way to join the forum online being from any other country in the world?
Thanks,

Ali,
There is a little more than just using your serial number to gain access to the FFC.
All the accounts are entered and activated manually by Bill Baxter at Hobbico. I don't know what the policy is for 14MZ owners that are outside the USA but bought them from a USA shop.
Email Bill Baxter. He is the one that handles the FFC for Hobbico.
Here is his profile on Helifreak.

thanks david, all I am interested in is the updates, if there is a website (other than the FCC) that'll make me sign up using my radio's serial # that'll be A OK for me!
if however, FCC is the only source of official updates i'll contact Bill as you recommended.
I did update my 14mz though, Thanks to one of the "Super" members here :wink: . but I don't know if the source i got the update from is continually updated.

Your service center (check with whomever you purchased the radio with) is your official source for updates. I'm running a site with all the updates at http://www.rcfan.com/radios.html (which I'll keep up as long as I have my radios.)
As David indicated, send bbaxter an email or you can also go the official Hobbico (Futaba) section on RCuniverse for assistance. See http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/forumid_125/tt.htm
