Optional alternative use of the transmitter
In addition to the “H” menu, the six-channel FM transmitter pro-
vides three more menus for fixed-wing model aircraft and heli-
copters.
If you wish to use the transmitter with a second model, you
must use the original 35 MHz receiver, Order No. 301106C4, or
the 41 MHz receiver, Order No. 301106C3.
A:
Fixed-wing model aircraft
V:
Fixed-wing model aircraft with V-tail, or delta / flying wing with
mixed aileron / elevator controls (elevons)
CCPM:
Model helicopter with three-point swashplate control
system
The button “G” is used to select the individual menus. If you wish
to switch menus, you must first move the safety switch “Lock” to
the Adjust position. The screen confirms any change that you
make.

Switch up position: 100%, switch down position: 70%.
3. Mixing channels 1 and 6 using the switch 2 (“F”).
4. Operation of auxiliary channel 5 using the switch 1 (“E”).
5. Servo reverse for channels 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6.
6. The “Lock” switch is used to disable the function adjustment
system.
7. Flashing red LED low-voltage alarm.
V: Fixed-wing model aircraft with V-tail or delta with mixed
aileron / elevator controls
1. Mixing channels 1 and 6 using the switch 1 (“E”).
2. Travel adjustment for channels 1, 2, 4 and 6 using the rotary
knob “D”.
3. Dual Rates for channels 1, 2 and 4 using the switch “Y”.

CCPM: Model helicopters with three-point swashplate linkage
1. Mixing channels 1, 2, 3 and 6 in CCPM mode. Adjustment of
collective pitch centre using the rotary knob “C”, adjustment
of maximum travel using the rotary knob “D”.
2. Dual Rates for channels 1, 2 and 4 using the switch 3 “Y”.
Switch up position: 100%, switch down position: 70%.
3. Switching the gyro between normal mode and heading-hold
mode using the switch 1 (“E”).

Note:
if you wish to fly a model without a BEC power supply, a
separate receiver battery must be used; this can be connected to
channel 6 using a switch harness. If this channel is already in use,
a Y-lead must be used.

linkage
The CCPM swashplate type is actuated by three servos, one
each for collective pitch, roll and pitch-axis (elevator), as shown
in the wiring diagram printed alongside. The three servos are
arranged around the rotor mast at an angle of 120°, and actuate
the swashplate directly. For roll control the swashplate is tilted
right or left by opposite movement of the two servos 1 and 6. For
pitch-axis control it is tilted forward or back by movement of all
the servos. If the collective pitch stick is operated, the swashpla-
te is moved up and down by all three servos moving together.
