MIX switch when releasing mixing.
If these switches are released in the reverse
order, only the flaps will be released and
the spoiler will remain open, placing the
aircraft into an extremely dangerous state.
•Roll button A (Fig. 1 ROLL[A])
The ailerons can be stopped at an arbitrary posi-
tion while this button is being pushed. This is used
at slow roll, etc.
Adjust the steering angle with the ROLL
(A) trimmer of Fig. 2. Both right roll and left roll
can be adjusted. Neutral adjustment is also pos-
sible. (At neutral the button has no effect even if
pushed.)
•Roll button B (Fig. 1 ROLL[B])
This is the same as roll button A. Adjust the
steering angle with the ROLL(B) trimmer
of Fig. 2. (Using roll button A for right roll and
roll button B for left roll is extremely convenient.)
•Throttle button (Fig. 1 THROT)
The throttle can be stopped at an arbitrary posi-
tion while this button is being pushed at snap
roll, etc. Adjust by setting the throttle stick to
HIGH, and pushing the button.
Setting the engine to medium throttle with the
THROT trimmer of Fig. 2 is perfect.
•Snap roll button A (Fig. 1 S.ROLL[A])
The aircraft can be placed into a snap roll by
simply pushing this button.
The direction and amount of aileron, elevator,
and rudder can be freely switched with the
trimmer of Fig. 2.
Each servo can also be adjusted to neutral.
(At neutral the servos are not operated even if
you push the button.)
•Snap roll B (Fig. 1 S.ROLL[B])
This is similar to snap roll A. The direction and
amount of aileron, elevator, and rudder are set
with the trimmer of Fig. 2.
Using snap roll button A for right snap roll and
snap roll button B for left snap roll is extremely
convenient. Adjust to match the aircraft.
The snap roll buttons may also be used as spin
buttons.
•Using the aileron, elevator, throttle, and rudder
reverses
(Devices which reverse the direction of operation
of the servos)
There must be no play in the aircraft linkage
direction.
The switches are built into the module case of
the transmitter.
Aileron Elevator Throttle Rudder
•Throttle ALT (Adjustable Limit Throttle) is a
new mechanism that trims only the LOW side of
the throttle control.
The trim lever is almost inoperative at the throttle
stick HIGH side, but is operative at the throttle
stick LOW side. The LOW side can be set to any
desired position with the trim lever by setting the
throttle rod at the engine HIGH side. This is very
convenient because the HIGH side remains un-
changed even when the trim lever is operated.
Always use with this switch set to the LOW side.
•The elevator trim lever is at the left side and the
throttle trim lever is at the right side. The elevator
trim lever has been placed at the left side because
the right side (aileron, elevator) has priority in
MODE II.

(NOTE) The buttons should be set to neutral be-
fore you are completely familiar with the
set. Use these buttons only after you have
become completely familiar with the set.
