INTRODUCTION OF AT9 SYSTEM

Note that in the text of this manual, begainning at this point, any time we are using a feature's specialized name or
abbreviation as seen on the screen of the AT9, that name, feature, or abbreviation will be exactly as seen on the
radio’s screen, including capitalization and shown in a DIFFERENT TYPE STYLE for clarity,Any time we
mention a specific control on the radio itself, such as moving SWITCH A, KNOB VR(B), or the THROTTLE
STICK, those words will be displayed as they are here.

•

5 flight conditions (normal, start, speed, distance, landing)

•IDLE- DOWN (ACRO), THR-CUT (ACRO HELI) (engine shut off), and MOTOR CUT (GLID) setups to allow

precise engine/motor control for taxi and landings.

•15 model type memory
•New stick design with improved feel, adjustable length and tension.
•Triple rates available by setting dual rates to 3-position switches.
•Eight SWITCHES, 3 DIALS and 2 SLIDERS; completely assignable in most applications.
•Trainer system includes the“functional” (FUNC) setting, which allows the student to use the AT9’s mixing,

helicopter, and other programming functions even with a 4-channel buddy box. (Optional trainer cord required.)

•AT9 transmitter features airplane friendly switch layout, with the trainer switch at the left hand (Mode 2), and a

notched throttle to minimize throttle changes with rudder input. Defaults to ACRO model type.

•AT9 transmitter features helicopter-friendly switch layout, with idle-up and throttle hold switches at the left hand,

and a smooth, ratchet-less (unsprung) throttle for perfect hovering. Defaults to HELI(H-1 swash plate type)
model type

Helicopter (8 swashplate types, including CCPM )

• 3 Idle Ups

• Throttle and Pitch Curves per Condition

• Revo. Mixing

• Gyro Mixing including Separate Settings per Condition

• Delay

• Governor Mixing

Aircraft:

• ATTITUDE (Normal, attitude, GPS, hover, F/S, Aux)
• Throttle curve
• Mix programmable
