The TTX610 includes elevon and v-tail mixing functions. The default setting for all mixing will be “off”, meaning

functionality will be suitable for traditional airplane wings and a normal T-shaped tail. To change the mix setting:

1. With the Tx power switch off, move the right stick to the bottom-

right corner, the left stick to the bottom-left corner, and hold in
these positions.

2. Turn the Tx power switch ON.

3. The LED should flash. If accompanied by two beeps the V-tail mix function has been activated. “V-tail”
is a mixture of the elevator and rudder channels. Two servos are used in the tail; one for each control
surface. This will control the airplane’s “pitch” and “yaw” axis at the same time. If the elevator and rudder
functions appear reversed at the control surfaces it may be necessary to swap the channel 2 and channel

4 servo plug positions in the receiver. If this is the desired mix function move to the next section.

4. To skip the V-tail mix and instead activate the elevon (delta

wing) mixer, turn the Tx power switch OFF and repeat the
above procedure. When the flashing LED is accompanied

by three beeps the elevon mixer will be active. “Elevon” is
a mixture of the elevator and aileron channels and controls
the airplane’s “pitch” and “roll” axis simultaneously. One
servo is used for each control surface. If the elevator and

aileron functions appear reversed at the control
surfaces it may be necessary to swap the
channel 1 and channel 2 servos’ plug positions
at the receiver.

5. To cancel all mixes, repeat this procedure
again. When the flashing LED is accompanied
by one beep all mixes will be off.

Optional stabilization gyros can be used to help maintain stable control of an airplane during flight. Gyros
can supply feedback to the aileron, elevator, and rudder controls separately. Many gyros also offer the ability
to change the sensitivity of the on-board sensors during flight. By connecting a gyro’s input connector to
receiver channel 6, the TTX610’s channel 6 switch can be used to change between the gyro’s different
sensitivity selections. See the gyro’s instructions for details about all connections and settings.
