JR 11X • RADIO INSTRUCTION MANUAL

•  Activate/inhibit the Governor function, 
•  Activate /inhibit the Gyro function 
•  Activate/inhibit the Pit2 (dual pitch servo) function 
•  Assign functions and channel to the desired switch knob or lever

Device Select

 is used to activate some of the more advanced features of the 

11X. The Device SEL function is used to activate/ inhibit the following: 

•  Flight Modes (5 in total) 
•  Aileron and rudder common trim 
•  Switch, Lever and Knob assignments 
•  Activate/inhibit switches/channels 
•  Activate/inhibit the Motor function 
•  Assign functions and channel to the desired switch knob or lever 

FLIGHT MODeS (AIRPLANe)

A Flight Mode represents an aircraft configuration (Dual Rate/ Expo, program 
mixes, Aileron Differential, Flap System, Gyro System, etc.) that allows you to do 
different things by flipping a single switch. Up to 3 flight modes are available in 
the 11X. 
Programming Flight Modes allows you to select a switch position to activate a 
collection of settings optimized to perform a maneuver. For example, you can 
set up an aerobatic aircraft so the Flight Mode switch in its 1st position (FM 
0) configures the aircraft for precision flying; the 2nd position (FM 1) sets the 
aircraft up for snap rolls; and the 3rd position (FM 2) sets the aircraft up for 
aggressive 3D flight. Flight Modes could just as easily represent aircraft settings 
for Take Off, Flying, and Landing for a turbine-powered jet aircraft. 
Most of the functions found in the 11X that are switch selectable including 
programmable mixers, throttle curves, differential, gyro settings, servo speed, 
etc. can be assigned to one or more Flight Modes. This allows up to 3 completely 
different aircraft configurations selectable in-flight using one of six 3-position 
switches (Flight mode switch, Rudder D/R switch, Flap switch, Elevator D/R 
switch, Aux 2 switch, Aileron D/R switch, or Inhibit).
You can select and activate Flight Mode switches in the Device SEL function in 
the System menu. Once Flight Modes are activated, you have a choice of using 
the Flight Mode switch to select up to 4 Dual Rates and Exponential settings 
for each of the primary controls (ELEV, AILE, RUDD), or you can control Dual 
Rates and Exponential settings by the 3 individual Dual Rate switches. All other 
functions activated by a switch can be assigned to 1 or more Flight Modes when 
Flight Modes are activated. 

To Activate flight Modes   

1  From System List, highlight and select Device Select using the Roller. 
2  In the Device Select function, using the Roller, highlight and select INH 

next to FLIGHT MODE. When selected, 7 options appear: (Flight Mode SW, 
Rudder D/R SW, Flap SW, Elevator D/R SW, Aux 2 SW, Aileron D/R SW, 
or INH). Highlight and select the desired flight mode switch. Alternatively, 
once the flight mode switch selection screen is open, you can utilize the 11X 
Auto Assign™ switch function; move the switch you want to use as the flight 
mode switch to select it.  The switch can be any of the 3-position switches.

SWITCH ASSIGNMENTS 

The 11X allows you to change the standard default switch assignments for the 
GEAR, FLAP, AUX2, AUX3, AUX4, AUX5, and AUX6 channels. Changing the 
switch assignments is a matter of preference. 

To Change One or More Switch Assignments 

1   In the Device Select function, use the Roller to highlight and select the 

desired channel to the right of GEAR, FLAP, AUX2, AUX3, AUX4, AUX5 or 
AUX6.

2   A list of available switches displays. Highlight and select the desired switch 

with 3. In this selection screen, you can also set the 2 top trimmers to work 
as 2-position switches, 3-position switches, or as momentary switches for a 
selected channel.

3   Repeat for as many switches as desired. 

ACTIvATE/INHIbIT CHANNELS 

The 11X allows you the ability to activate, inhibit or program channels 5 (Gear), 7 
(Aux2) and 8 (AUX 3) to operate as a Gyro or Pitch function. 

Note:

 Inhibiting a channel is necessary when auxiliary channels are used as 

dual primary flight controls, such as using 2 channels/servos for 2 Ailerons or 2 
servos/channels to operate the Elevator or Rudder. In this instance, the Elevator 
and Rudder sticks operate the auxiliary channels. You should inhibit the auxiliary 
switches in the Device Select function. 

Note:

 If any of the channels identified above as a 2nd channel for a primary flight 

control (AILE, ELEV, RUDD, FLAP), be sure to Inhibit (INH) the switches for the 
channels in this function or they will not be available to use as a second control 
channel. 

1.  If using GEAR, FLAP, AUX2, AUX3, AUX4, AUX5 or AUX6 as a 2nd primary 

flight control, inhibit the corresponding switch by highlighting ACT along 
the right side of the display. Press the roller to select INH. 

Note

: When SYS appears next to FLAP, the FLAP SYSTEM function will appear 

in the Function List (described later). If the aircraft is equipped with flaps, or 
equipped with Flaperons that are actually going to be used as flaps then SYS 
should be set next to FLAP. 

Note:

 When GYR appears, the Gyro Function appears in the Function List 

(described later on page 27). Two gyro programs are available. 

Note:

 When PIT appears, the Pitch Function appears in the Function List 

(described later on page 22, 26). 

11X USED AS MASTER 

If the 11X is being used as the Master, select the channel(s) to be operated by the 
Slave when the trainer switch is depressed. 
When all channel rollers are in the MAST position, NORMAL appears on the 
display and all channels transfer to the student when the trainer switch is 
depressed. In this case, you must fully program the model in both the master and 
the slave transmitters.  If the slave system is a XP9303, X9303, X9503, 11X, or 
12X, and all channel rollers are in the MAST position, you must leave the slave 
transmitter in the normal default MASTER setting. 
If one or more of the channel rollers are in the SLAV position, only the throttle, 
aileron, elevator, and/or rudder channels are transferred to the Slave transmitter 
depending on which are set to SLAV in the Master transmitter.  If one or more 
of the channel rollers are in the SLAVE position, the Master controls all Dual 
and Expo rates, Gear, and flap positions, and the Slave transmitter need not be 
programmed for the model.  If one or more of the channel rollers are in the SLAV 
position, the Slave transmitter should be set to SLAVE mode.
When less than all channels are selected as SLAV, PROGRAM T appears on the 
display indicating the Trainer System is programmed to transfer only selected 
channels.

Note:

 The Slave transmitter battery must be fully charged and installed and the 

power switch in the OFF position. 

1  Rotate the roller to highlight INH under SW SEL in the lower left corner.  
2  Press the roller, and select the left or right trim lever to give control to the 

slave transmitter. The 11X is now ready to be used as the Master. 

3  Depress the Left or Right trim lever to transfer control to the student. Control 

will remain transferred until you release the trim lever. 

11X USED AS SLAvE 

If the Master transmitter has one or more of the channel rollers in the SLAV 
position, highlight and select MASTER. The display switches to SLAVE. A 
message appears instructing to Connect DSC & POWER off. Make sure the 
transmitter power switch is OFF and the Trainer cord connected between the two 
transmitters. 
The 11X is now ready to use as the Slave with one or more channels selected in 
the Master transmitter to SLAV.

If the Master transmitter has all channels set to MAST, leave the Slave 
Transmitters’ Trainer System set to the Default MASTER setting.  In this case, 
you must fully program the Slave transmitter and set it up to fly the model. All 
programming of the Slave transmitter will be used.  Plug the Trainer cord into the 
back of the transmitter leaving the power switch in the OFF position.  

Your 11X is ready to use as the Slave with all channel rollers in the Master 
transmitter set to MAST.

STICK ALERT

The Stick Alert function gives an audible indication of the throttle stick position.  If 
selected, the transmitter beeps at an adjustable throttle position giving the user an 
indication of throttle position. 

To program the Stick Alert function

1  In the System List, highlight and select Stick Alert using the Selector. 
2  Highlight and select INH next to THRO STK to activate the function.
3  Highlight and select the value next to POS to adjust the throttle stick 

position where the system will beep.

4  Highlight and select SW SEL to select a switch to activate the function if 

desired.  Then select the switch and switch position.  You can use this to 
turn the Stick Alert function on and off by a switch or flight mode in flight.  

5  Highlight and select SW SEL to exit the switch selection screen.
