 doubles your model storage capability (to 16 

models from 8) and allows you to transfer programs to another 8UH transmitter. 

x

 Transmitter battery pack – the NT8S600B transmitter Ni-Cd battery pack may be easily 

exchanged with a fresh one to provide enough capacity for extended flying sessions 

x

 Trainer cord – the optional training cord may be used to help a beginning pilot learn to fly 

easily by placing the instructor on a separate transmitter.    Note that the 8UH transmitter may

series transmitter. 

x

 Neckstrap – a neckstrap may be connected to your 8UH system to make it easier to handle 

and improve your flying precision, since your hands won’t need to support the transmitter’s
