Page 2
These instructions are intended to asquaint you with the
many unique feachures of the state of the art equipment.
Please read them carefully so that you may obtain maxi-
mum success and enjoyment from its operation.
We ask that yo pay particular attention to the design of the
transmitter. Notice that it has been human engineered for
the most natrual and precise control of your choice of oper-
ating cars, tucks and boats.
Be certain to read all the material in this manual.
SAFETY FIRST FOR YOURSELF, FOR OTHERS AND
FOR YOUR EQUIPMENT
“SAFETY FIRST” is more than just a slogan when operating
radio controlled models.
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
AT THE TRACK, LAKE or anywhere other people are using
radio control equipment that you DO NOT turn on your
transmitter untill you know your frequance is clear. YOU
MUST NOT TURN ON YOUR TRANSMITTER WHEN
SOMEONE ELSE IS USING THE SAME FREQUANCY
YOUR TRANSMITTER IS ON. Only one person can use a
given frequancy at one time.
Observe all the rules at the eld or track you are at.
FREQUANCY IDENTIFICATION AND DISPLAY SYSTEM
The Federal Communications (F.C.C.) species radio
frequancies in MHz units. For convenience, the frequan-
cies are designed by CHANNEL numbers and or by colored
ags. Numbered channel markers on the transmitter identify
the specic channel. A yellow wind streamer identis a 75
MHz transmitter.
This equipment has been designed for 27 or 75 MHz only
and can only be used for surface use and can not be used
for any aircraft use at all.
WARING: The 75 MHz frequancies allocated for model
radio control use are exclusive; however, they are in close
proximity to other types of radio usage in certain areas. Be-
fore operating your model, check with the FCC regional of-
ce in your area to determine wheather there is a potential
danger or interference from other radio users. The FCC of-
ces are usually listed in your telephone directory under the
section designated to United States Government Ofces.
When dealing with the FCC, you should state the type of
activity you are involved in (i.e., radio control of model boats
or cars) and inquire if there are any commerical RF trans-
mitters on or close to your frequancy in Megahertz (MHz).
Do not use R/C channel numbers since the FCC will not be
able to correlate them with actual frequancy. “Outside” radio
interferance may cause you to lose control of your model,
possibly resulting in injury to yourself or others, or property.
SO REMEMBER:
DO NOT OPERATE your transmitter at the track or lake, untill
you are certain your frequancy is clear.
DISPLAY your frequancy ag and channel identication on the
antenna of your transmitter.
REMENBER that ags do not usually state the frequancy on
them and sometimes the colors are hard to distingguish. If you
have an eyesight limitation or defect such as color blindness,
double check the frequancy ag designations with someone
else.
TURN YOUR TRANSMITTER ON ONLY IF YOUR FREQUAN-
CY IS CLEAR.
WARING: your model will go out of control and may cause
some series injury or damage if someone else turns on a trans-
mitter on your frequancy while you are operating your model.
RESPECT ALL THE RULES of the operating site.
AT ANY TIME during the operation of your model, should you
sense, feel or observe any erratic operation or abnormality,
end your operation as quickly and safely as possible. DO NOT
operate again until you are certain the problem has been cor-
rected. TAKE NO CHANCES.

Dual Rate Steering Page F1 (D-RATE)
Trm 4 (top)
Dual Rate is used to change the amount of servo movement compared to the amount of movement with the steering wheel. Increas-
ing the amount of dual rate will make the steering more sensitive or feel faster and decreasing the dual rate will make the steering
more insensitive or feel slower.
When setting up a new car or truck, follow the directions below to properly setup your steering dual rate.
Press the function select key to move the cursor to (D-RATE). As you
move the steering wheel from side to side, you can set the bar graph
move to the dual rate limit lines. Default setting is 100%.
Adjust the dual rate by pressing the INC+ or DEC- keys to increase
or decrease dual rate amount. At this time, set the dual rate to 125%.
This will increase the servo movement my 25% in both left and right
directions.
NOTE: Pressing both the INC and DEC keys together will set the dual
rate to the default setting of 100%.
After the dual rate has been set, adjust the independent left and right
end points using the EPA feature.
1. Set the digital steering trim to “0” by using (Trm 1). You can see when the trim
reaches center by viewing one or both screens.
Steering trim factory default location: (Trm 1)
2.
Attach the steering linkage to the servo arm as the car manufacturer
recommends. Be sure to have all steering linkage, trim and servo arm
as close to center as possible. Doing so will cut out a lot of steering
problems later.
Now move the steering wheel left and right to full. If your steering
binds at both ends, this means you have to much movement coming
from the servo. Use the dual rate to reduce or increase the amont of
steerings to reach the steering stops.

End Point Adjustment Page F1 (EPA)
[ST] Steering End Point Adjustment
End point adjustment is used to adjust the proper amount of servo movement on the model’s steering angle to steer left and right
and/or adjust the carburetor throttle arm stroke, the high point of an ESC and brake stroke.
While the M11 is set for 4 channels, this EPA function is also adjustable for 3rd BRAKE or AUX Channel) and for 4th channel of
brake.
A model’s turning radius can differ from left to right because of variations in
linkage, suspension balance, tire diameter or weight distribution of the vehicle.
In such cases, the left and right servo steering angle is adjustable.
Before making the end point adjustment, you must set the servo to the neutral
position. To nd the center position, adjust the servo horn to approximately
center position, and then make ne adjustments using the sub-trim.
Next, press the function select key and move the cursor to [ST] in EPA.
To set the steering end point on the right side, turn the steering wheel fully
clockwise and depress the Inc.+ or Dec.- key. To set the left steering end point,
do the same with the steering wheel turned fully counterclockwise.
Setting range 0% to 150%

With engine-powered models, by revving the idling a little, it makes easier
to start up the engine. When using a channel other than 2CH for braking, a
certain degree of braking can be applied independently of trigger operation,
making it possible to obtain safer engine starts. (This works when the S-POS
switch is ON. Trigger operation starts at the point determined by the S-POS
setting.
TIP When the S-POS switch is OFF, the S-POS position is at N (neutral).

C-Mix Page F2 (C-MIX)
* This function allows you to mix channels and to apply mixing to the channels
themselves.
* On the master channel, you can select from between direct data, and data
that includes calculations and trim.
* There are two groups of C-MIX settings, and you can use the two simultane-
ously.
NOTE
* With normal steering, control has a ow that starts with steering wheel manipulation, proceeding through calcula-
tion, to servo output (CH1). With the C-MIX function, if the steering is moved by a certain amount (for example,
100 as shown in the gure above), 10% of that amount is applied to the CH2 servo, so that the CH2 servo moves
by 10 as the steering servo moves by 100. The channel on which steering operation takes place is referred to as
the “MASTER” , and the channel that operates at 10% of the master level is referred to as the “SLAVE”.
1) Using the function select keys, move the cursor to
C-MIX1.
2) Make sure that u appears to the right of MASTER,
and then set the master channel by pressing the
Inc.+ or Dec.- key.

and then select INH or ACT by pressing the Inc.+
or Dec.- key.
IMPORTANT
- About the INH/ACT setting of C-MIX
The INH/ACT setting of C-MIX can be changed using the key assign switch as well as through the menus. Using
this function, adjustment is possible from any menu, C-MIX “ON” or “OFF” can be easily adjusted with the selected
switch even during operation.
NOTE
* When the slave and master are both on the same channel, mixing takes place within the channel itself, causing
the steering angle to increase for positive values, and to decrease for negative values. By switching mixing ON
and OFF, you may want to choose with desired feeling of the steering during the driving.
Since no operation occurs beyond 100
when the master channel is AUX1, this
can be set to 100.
This is set to 0% because no operation
results on the L side with an offset.

Page 52
CAUTION
Use only genuine Airtronics FM Crystals.
Using of crystals other than those specied may result in frequency errors and possible runaway operation.
There is a danger of runaway operation, if connectors shake loose while driving. Make sure that receiver, servo, and-
switch connectors are securely tted.
A danger of runaway operation exists with shorter antennas, due to reduced receptivity. Do not cut any length of antenna
wire.
The receiver susceptible to vibration, shock and moisture. Take appropriate measures to protect against vibration and
water. Failure to take appropriate measures could result in runaway operation or to damage to the receiver.
Keep the receiver antenna away from motors, battery, and ESC and make sure that antenna stick out from the model
vehicle vertically.
When installing the receiver, don’t let it come in contact with any carbon or metal chassis.
Contact between metal parts mounted on a model can result in electrical noise, adversely affecting receiver performance
and possibly resulting in runaway operation or damaged to your model vehicle.
With electrically-powered models, be sure to t the motor with a noise suppression capacitor. Without a noise suppression
capacitor, excessive noise generation can cause runaway operation. And/or result of damage to the model vehicle.
Use rubber anti-vibration absorbers with servos. Direct transmission of engine vibration to servos can cause servo failier
and possibly result in runaway operation with damaging your model vehicle.
The manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for damages resulting from use of components other than genuine
AIRTRONICS/SANWA components.
The M11 can be switched between 2ch and 4ch operation.
Note that 4ch operation is not possible when using the 92836 or 92837 receivers were being used.
