The PCM10X allows you to adjust the control sticks’ length.

To adjust the stick length, use the 2mm Allen wrench (sup-

plied with your PCM10X transmitter) to unlock the set screw.

Note: Turn the wrench counterclockwise to loosen the screw

and clockwise to tighten it.

Turn the knurled part of the stick counterclockwise to lengthen

and clockwise to shorten.

After the control stick length has been adjusted to suit your

flying style, simply tighten the 2mm set screw.

If you desire longer sticks, JR has developed a replacement

stick (JRPA047) that’s approximately one inch longer than the
standard sticks.

An eyelet is provided on the face of the PCM10X transmitter that
enables you to connect a neck strap (JRPA023). This hook has
been positioned such that your transmitter will have the proper
balance when the antenna is extended.

The 10X allows you to individually tailor the tension of each of
your stick control inputs to suit your flying style. The procedure
is as follows:

1. Carefully remove the rear rubber grips. Do this by gently

prying the grip by hand from the case.

2. Carefully remove the lower right-hand rubber plug. (The

upper left rubber plug is used for adjusting Mode 1 transmitters
only.)

3. Using a small Phillips screwdriver, rotate each adjusting

screw clockwise to tighten its respective stick tension(counter-
clockwise to loosen).

After achieving the desired stick tension, carefully replace the

rubber grips and plugs.
