2. Set the student transmitter modulation mode to PPM. Collapse the student’s antenna, and
fully extend the instructor’s antenna. Remove the RF module from the transmitter held
by the student (if it is a module-type transmitter).
3. Plug one end of the trainer cord into each
transmitter, with power switched off. The trainer
jack is in the center of the rear face of the
transmitter. Do not force, the connector is keyed.
4. Turn on the instructor’s transmitter. DO NOT turn
on the student transmitter power. Move the controls
on the instructor’s transmitter, and verify each
control moves the proper direction. Now verify that
the student’s trims and control travels match the instructor’s by using the trainer button
and switching back and forth while leaving the control sticks and trims alone, then
moving the control sticks.
5. The instructor’s transmitter has normal control over the model unless the trainer button is
pushed, when the student’s has control. If control is lost, the instructor should release the
trainer button and resume controlling the model.

comfortable, lock the position by turning locking piece B counterclockwise.
Stick lever tension adjustment
You may adjust the stick tension of your
sticks to provide the “feel” that you like for

screwdriver, remove the four screws that hold
the transmitter’s rear cover into position, and put them in a safe place. Gently ease off the
transmitter’s rear cover. You may wish to unplug the battery wire. Carefully rotate the rear
of the case you you have access to the rear of the sticks. Now you’ll see the view shown.
Using a small screwdriver, rotate the adjusting screw for each stick for the desired
spring tension. The tension increases when the adjusting screw is turned clockwise, and
