INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Futaba
®
digital proportional R/C system. In order for you to make the best use of your system
and to use it safely, please read this manual carefully. If you have any difficulties while using your system, please consult
the manual, our online Frequently Asked Questions (on the web pages referenced below), your hobby dealer, or the Futaba
Service Center.
Owner’s Manual and Additional Technical Help
This manual has been carefully written to be as helpful to you, the new owner, as possible. There are many pages of setup
procedures and examples. However, it need not be your sole resource of setup guidelines. For example, the back cover
includes a quick-start set of instructions and the Frequently Asked Questions web page referenced below includes this type
of step-by-step setup instructions for a variety of other model types.
Due to potential unforeseen changes in production procedures, the information contained in this manual is subject to change
without notice. No part of this manual may be reproduced in any form, at any time, without prior permission.
Support and Service:
It is recommended to have your Futaba equipment serviced annually during your hobby’s “off
season” to ensure safe operation.
IN NORTH AMERICA
Please feel free to contact the Futaba Service Center for assistance in operation, use and programming. Please be sure to
regularly visit the Frequently Asked Questions web site referenced below. This page includes extensive programming, use,
set up and safety information on your radio system and is updated regularly. Any technical updates and US manual corrections
will be available on this web page. If you do not find the answers to your questions there, please see the end of our F.A.Q.
area for information on contacting us via email for the most rapid and convenient response.
Don’t have Internet access?
Internet access is available at no charge at most public libraries, schools, and other public
resources. We find internet support to be a fabulous reference for many modelers as items can be printed and saved for future
reference, and can be accessed at any hour of the day, night, weekend or holiday. If you do not wish to access the internet for
information, however, don’t worry. Our support teams are available Monday through Friday 8-5 Central time to assist you.
