receiver (mixes, exponential, etc.). Some electronic functions can be turned on/off by the pilot during fl ight
such as a timer. Other functions can only be altered while the model is on the ground, such as changing
travel limits or reversing for a particular channel.
For multi-rotors, sideways movement of the aileron control (right stick for radios set on mode 2) controls
right / left movement. Up/down movement of the elevator control (right stick for mode 2) controls forward/
backwards movement. Pushing the stick towards the Tx handle moves the nose of the model forward; pulling
the stick down away from the handle moves the nose of the model backwards. Up/down movement of the
throttle control (left stick for mode 2) increases motor speed (RPM) and controls the up / down movement.
Pushing the stick up (towards the Tx handle) moves the model up vertically. Pulling the stick down (away
from the handle) moves the model downward. Sideways movement of the rudder control (left stick for mode
2) controls clockwise/counter-clockwise rotation of the model.
GIMBAL STICKS
Ball-bearing construction allows both sticks to provide the ultimate in smooth, precise control. Stick
length
can be adjusted for optimum feel and control. Each stick consists of a base and a tip. To adjust, hold the base
tightly, then loosen the tip by turning it counter-clockwise. Adjust the stick tip to the desired length. Tighten
the stick by holding the tip in place and turning the base counter-clockwise until it’s tight against the tip.
STICK TENSION AND THROTTLE RATCHET
Each control stick can be adjusted for softer or stiffer movement tension. A ratchet is also included for the
throttle stick which can be adjusted for feel depending on personal preference. Adjustment of either feature
requires removal of the rear of the Tx case as explained in the CASE SEPARATION AND ASSEMBLY
section below.
CASE SEPARATION AND ASSEMBLY
WARNING!
Failure to follow these instructions for separating and re-assembling the Tx
case can result in permanent damage to the transmitter and void the warranty. Contact
Hobby Services if you do not feel comfortable that you can safely and accurately perform
these steps.
ALWAYS disconnect and remove the batteries from the battery compartment FIRST. Failure to
do so can result in permanent damage to the Tx.
Remove the six screws from the back of the Tx case. Carefully pull the case rear away from the case
front and note exactly how all wires are routed inside the case.
After adjustments are made as described in other sections of this manual, close the case by fi rst carefully
tucking all cables back inside as when the case was opened. Align the case rear back onto the case front,
making sure that no wires are pinched between the case parts. Press the case halves together. Insert
the screws back into their positions and carefully tighten them
until snug
- making sure not to cross the
threads or over-tighten the screws. Re-connect the battery holder’s connector to the socket inside the
Tx. Insert the battery into the compartment, and carefully tuck the wires inside the cavity so they do not
become pinched when the door is closed. Close the battery door.
