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.
