Charging jack - Port for charging the transmitter batteries with the included battery charger. On-off switch
On/off switch
DATA INPUT lever - Used to change the values of the various functions displayed on the LCD screen
Liquid - crystal display screen (LCD) - Displays programming modes and values entered.
MODE key - Used to scroll through and display the “13” or “14”(PCM) different functions.
SELECT key - Used to display the values for the current function.
Throttle – cut button - To use the throttle-cut function, lower the throttle stick all the way, then Push the throttle-cut button to

fully close the carburetor and shut of the engine.
Throttle/rudder control stick - Operates the servos connected to channel 3 (throttle) and channel 4 (rudder) in the receiver.
Idle – up switch - This switch operates to change the ﬁght condition which is set the throttle curve and pitch curve of mid air

maneuvers (rolls, loops, stall turns) and 3D ﬂight.
Gyro switch/Channel 5 - You can connect the sense adjust connector to the channel 5 of the receiver to operate the gyro

which has two different sense. Also if you use Futaba GY401/502/601 Gyro, two different gyro senses setting on gyro function

in this transmitter can be call by this switch.
Antenna - Radiates signals to the receiver. Never fly a model without fully extending the antenna or you may create

interference to other modelers and decrease operational signal range of the transmitter. The antenna may be removed and

replaced with another in case it is inadvertently broken.

RADIO INSTALLATION

Follow these guidelines to properly mount the servos, receiver and battery.

INPORTANT!: Please use PCM receiver if the composition parts of the model used much metal, carbon graphite etc.

because they will generates quite a lot of the noise.
• Make certain the

alignment tab on the battery, switch and servo connectors is oriented correctly and “keys” into the

corresponding notch in the receiver or connectors before plugging them in. When unplugging connectors, never pull on the

wires. Always pull on the plastic connector instead.

• If any servo wires are not long enough to reach the receiver, servo extension wires (available separately) may be used.

• Always mount the servos with the supplied

rubber grommets. Do not over tighten the

screws. No part of the servo casing should contact the mounting rails, servo tray or any other

part of the helicopter structure. Otherwise, vibration will be transmitted to the servo causing

premature wear and/or servo failure.

• Note the small numbers (1, 2, 3, 4) molded into each arm on the Futaba 4-arm servo arms. The

numbers indicate how many degrees each arm is “off” from 90 degrees to correct for minute

manufacturing deviations from servo to servo.

• To center the servos, connect them to the receiver and turn on the

transmitter and receiver. Center the trims on the transmitter, then ﬁnd

the arm that will be perpendicular to the pushrod when placed on the

servo.
