channels can move the controls away from center, this SWASH RING function can help prevent damage from
occuring to controls inside the model. At the default 150% setting the controls are not limited, and effectively
turnes this function off.
Once inside this function, press ENTER to highlight the "Rate" value. Press
↑
+ or
↓
- to find the desired maximum
rate. The circle graphic represents the maximum movement rate. Moving the aileron and/or elevator stick to their
limits will cause the actual position of the these controls to show at the bottom of the screen.
PROGRAMMABLE MIXER:
Setting of programmable mixes for helicopters is identical to that for airplanes, as
described on page xx.
BIND THE RECEIVER TO THE TRANSMITTER
Binding the TTX650 to the Tactic receiver ensures sole communication between the two, and prevents other
transmitters from being able to control the receiver.
1. Turn on the Tx.
2. Apply power to the Rx.
3. If the Rx LED flashes once and then stays on, the Rx is already bound to the Tx and you can skip to the next
section. Otherwise, insert a small diameter screwdriver through the hole marked “BIND” and press the pushbutton
until the Rx LED glows red and then turns off after about one second.
4. Release the “BIND” button.
5. If the binding is successful, the Rx LED will flash once and then remain ON.
6. Test for proper Tx/Rx functionality before use. If the radio doesn’t appear to have become properly bound,
repeat steps 1–6 above.
FAILSAFE FUNCTION
The failsafe function is not controlled by the TTX650 transmitter itself, but rather by the Tactic receiver. Tactic's
stand-alone 2.4GHz receivers have a failsafe feature which engages in the event that the signal from the Tx
somehow becomes interrupted. In such case, channels 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 (all but throttle) will hold their last received
position.
Throttle channel 3 can move to a pre-set position. The factory default failsafe position for channel 3 is to move to
0% throttle. The throttle’s failsafe position can be manually set to any other position if desired, as follows:
1.
IMPORTANT:
make sure the servo reverse settings for all servos are in the correct position for the application.
2. Apply power to the Tx and Rx.
3a. If using an ESC: do NOT arm the ESC, or attempt to adjust the throttle’s failsafe position if the ESC is armed.
NOTE:
If you’re using an ESC which has a signal loss feature, its pre-set failsafe position will be irrelevant as the
receiver's failsafe function will cease the throttle operation if the signal is lost.
3b. If using a combustion engine: do NOT attempt to adjust the throttle’s failsafe position while the engine is
operating.
4. Move the Tx throttle stick to the desired throttle failsafe position.
