MODEL BASIC SETTING PROCEDURE
1. Model addition and call
Initial setting assigns 1 model to the FX-40
transmitter. The Model Select function of the
Linkage Menu is used to add models and to call
models which are already set.
This is convenient when calling a model after its
name has been registered. (The data of up to 30 models
can be saved to the transmitter. More can also be saved
to the accessory CF card.)
The currently called model name is displayed at the
top of the screen. Before flying and before changing

When a new model was added, the Model type
select screen and Frequency/Modulation mode/
Receiver ID setup screen automatically appear. Please
be aware that the transmitter will stop transmitting
when you change the model.
2. Model type selection
Select the model type matched to the wing type with
the Model Type select function of the Linkage Menu.
For an airplane, select the model type from among the
3 types: airplane, glider, and motor glider. When the
Wing type select screen is displayed and the wing type
is selected when selecting the model type, the Tail type
select screen is displayed. Select the tail type matched
to the fuselage.
There are 13 wing types and 3 tail types for airplane,
glider, and motor glider.

3. Fuselage linkage
Link the ailerons, elevators, throttle, rudder, etc.
in accordance with the model's instruction manual.
For a description of the connection method, see the
Receiver and Servos Connection.
Note: The channel assignment of the FX-40 is
different from that of our existing systems. Note
that even for the same "airplane model", when the
wing type and tail type are different, the channel
assignment may be different. (The channel assigned
to each function can be checked at the Function
menu of the Linkage Menu.)
