To use the charge jack with optional rechargeable batteries, fi rst remove the sticker
that covers the charge jack on the side of the Tx – making sure not to allow any
object to be inserted inside the jack itself. Next, insert the cells inside the Tx’s battery
compartment noting proper polarity. Make sure the transmitter’s power switch is in
the OFF position. Connect a compatible charge lead to the jack and follow the
instructions included with the charger for charging of NiCd or NiMH batteries that
are rated at 4.8V.
Tactic’s optional TACP1000 rechargeable battery and wall charger kit includes eight
“AA” size rechargeable NiMH cells and 110V AC wall charger, which is compatible
with this Tx and can be found at local retailers. Make sure to follow the instructions
included with the charge kit.
WARNING!! It’s not recommended to charge batteries at greater
than 1 amp through this charge jack. Fast charging of NiCd and
NiMH batteries should ONLY be done with chargers that are
specifi cally designed to include the peak-detection function
which can automatically stop charge when full charge is detected. Misuse,
improper charging, or over-charging of rechargeable cells can result in
damage to the cells that could include cell rupture, explosion, or fi re!!
TRAINER FUNCTION
The TTX600 Tx includes a built-in wireless trainer function – no trainer cable
required! This trainer system connects a teacher’s Tactic Tx to a student’s Tactic Tx
by wireless connection. Tactic’s wireless trainer function is not compatible with
trainer systems in any other brand radios.
IMPORTANT! Before attempting to fl y the airplane, it’s very important
to make sure all reversing switches and trim lever adjustments on the
student’s Tx match the settings on the teacher’s Tx! Otherwise, the
airplane could suddenly veer off in an unwanted manner when the
teacher’s trainer switch is pressed. Proper matching of the student and teacher’s
Tx settings should ensure that no unexpected movements occur when the trainer
switch is pressed. This is especially true of the throttle control!
1. The Tx that was used to set up the controls on the aircraft must be used by
the TEACHER.
2. The student must use a separate Tactic Tx with wireless trainer function.
3. Place the teacher and student’s transmitters within 1 meter of each other,
and make sure the throttle stick for each Tx is set to idle.
4. Turn ON the power switch for the Tx being held by the student.
5. Pull and hold the trainer switch on the teacher’s Tx, and then turn ON the
teacher’s Tx power switch.
