WARNING
FLYING SAFETY
To ensure the safety of yourself and others, please observe the following precautions:
Have regular maintenance performed. Although your FMT-03 protects the model memories with
non-volatile EEPROM memory (which does not require periodic replacement) and not a battery, the
transmitter still should have regular checkups for wear and tear. We recommend sending your system
to the Futaba Service Center annually during your non-flying-season for a complete checkup and
service.
Battery
Charge the batteries! Always recharge the transmitter and receiver batteries before each flying
session. A low battery will soon die potentially, causing loss of control and a crash. When you begin
your flying session, reset your FMT-03’s built-in timer, and during the session pay attention to the
duration of usage.
Stop flying long before your batteries become low on charge. Do not rely on your radio’s low
battery warning systems, intended only as a precaution, to tell you when to recharge. Always
check your transmitter and receiver batteries prior to each flight.
Where to Fly
We recommend that you fly at a recognized model airplane flying field. You can find model
clubs and fields by asking your nearest hobby dealer, or in the US by contacting the Academy
of Model Aeronautics.
You can also contact the national Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), which has more
than 2,500 chartered clubs across the country. Through any one of them, instructor training
programs and insured newcomer training are available. Contact the AMA at the address or tollfree phone number below.

Flying Precautions
WARNING
Never grasp the transmitter antenna while
flying.
■ The transmitter output may drop drastically.
Always make sure that all transmitter stick
movements operate all channels properly in the
model prior to flight. Also, make sure that all
switches, etc. function properly as well. If there
are any difficulties, do not use the system until all
inputs are functioning properly.
Never fly in the range check mode.
■ In the dedicated range test range check mode, the
transmitter output range is reduced and may cause a
crash.
While operating, never touch the transmitter
with, or bring the transmitter near, another
transmitter, a cellphone, or other wireless
devices.
■ Doing so may cause erroneous operation.
Do not point the antenna directly toward the
aircraft during flight.
■ The antenna is directional and the transmitter output
is weakest. (The strength of the radio waves is greatest
from the sides of the antenna.)
Never fly on a rainy day, when the wind is
strong, and at night.
■ Water could lead to failure or improper functionality
and poor control of the aircraft which could lead to a
crash.
Never turn the power switch on and off during
flight or while the engine or motor is running.
■ Operation will become impossible and the aircraft
will crash. Even if the power switch is turned on,
operation will not begin until transmitter and receiver
internal processing is complete.
Do not fly when you are physically impaired
as it could pose a safety hazard to yourself or
others.
Do not touch the engine, motor, or motor
controller during and immediately after use.
■ These items may become hot during use.

Do not fly at the following places:
■ Near another radio control flying field.
■ Near or above people.
■ Near homes, schools, hospitals or other places where
people congregate.
■ Near high voltage lines, high structures, or
communication facilities.
For safety, fly so that the aircraft is visible at
all times.
■ Flying behind buildings or other large structures
will not only cause you to lose sight of the aircraft, but
also degrade the RF link performance and cause loss of
control.
From the standpoint of safety, always set the
fail safe function.
■ In particular, normally set the throttle channel to idle.
When flying, always return the transmitter
setup screen to the Home screen.
■ Erroneous input during flight is extremely dangerous.
Always check the remaining capacity of the
transmitter and receiver battery before each
flying session prior to flight.
■ Low battery capacity will cause loss of control and a
crash.
Always check operation of each control
functions and perform a range test before each
flying session. Also, when using the trainer
function, check the operation of both the teacher
and student transmitter.
Before turning on the transmitter:
1. Always move the transmitter throttle stick
position to the minimum (idle) position.
2. Turn on the transmitter first and then the
receiver.
When turning off the transmitter's power
switch. After the engine or motor has stopped
(state in which it will not rotate again):
1. Turn off the receiver power switch.
2. Then turn off the transmitter power switch.
■ If the power switch is turned on/off in the opposite
order, the propeller may rotate unexpectedly and cause
a serious injury.
■ Also always observe the above order when setting
the fail safe function.
■ Maximum low throttle: Direction in which the engine
or motor runs at the slowest speed or stops.
When adjusting the transmitter, stop the
engine except when necessary. In the case of
a motor, disconnect the wiring and to allow it
to continue operation. When doing so, please
exercise extreme caution. Ensure that the aircraft
is secured and that it will not come into contact
with anything or anyone. Ensure that the motor
will not rotate prior to making any adjustments.
■ Unexpected high speed rotation of the motor/engine
may cause a serious injury.
■ Even one transmitter setting or aircraft abnormality
cause a crash.

Transmitter's Antenna:
As with all radio frequency transmissions, the
strongest area of signal transmission is from the
sides of the transmitter's antenna. As such, the
antenna should not be pointed directly at the model.
If your flying style creates this situation, easily
move the antenna to correct this situation.
• Rotating antenna
The antenna can be rotated 360 degrees and angled
90 degrees. Forcing the antenna further than this
can damage it. When making an antenna rotate, be
careful so that fixing screw doesn't loosen.

Receiver's Antenna Installation
The FMR-03 has two antennas. In order to maximize signal reception and promote safe modeling Futaba
has adopted a diversity antenna system. This allows the receiver to obtain RF signals on both antennas and
fly problem-free.
*Must be kept as straight as possible.
Antenna
Coaxial cable
FMR-03 Receiver
To obtain the best results of the diversity
function, please refer to the following
instructions:
1. The two antennas must be kept as straight
as possible. Otherwise it will reduce the
effective range.
2. The two antennas should be placed at 90
degrees to each other.
This is not a critical figure, but the most
important thing is to keep the antennas
away from each other as much as possible.
Larger models can have large metal
objects that can effect the RF signal. In this
case the antennas should be placed at
both sides of the model. Then the best RF
signal condition is obtained at any flying
attitude.
3. The antennas must be kept away from
conductive materials, such as metal,
carbon and fuel tank by at least a half
inch. The coaxial part of the antennas does
not need to follow these guidelines, but do
not bend it in a tight radius.
4. Keep the antennas away from the motor,
ESC, and other noise sources as much as
possible.
*The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other.
*The illustration demonstrates how the antenna should be placed.
*Install in a way that makes sure that the 2 antennas won't touch the ground. When an antenna touches the ground, there
is danger which becomes control impossibility.
Antenna don’t touch the ground.

points. Periodically check the cable during daily
maintenance.
WARNING
Connecting connectors
Be sure to insert the connector until it
stops at the deepest point.
How to protect the receiver from vibration
Wrap the receiver with something soft
such as foam rubber to avoid vibration.
Receiver's antenna
Never cut the receiver's antenna. Do not
bind the receiver's antenna with the cables
for servos.
Locate the receiver's antenna as far as
possible from metals or carbon fiber
components such as frames, cables, etc.
*Cutting or binding the receiver's antenna will reduce the
radio reception sensitivity and range, and may cause a
crash.
Margin in the lead wire.
Fasten about 5-10cm
from the servo outlet so
that the lead wire is neat.
Mounting the power switch
When mounting a power switch to an
airframe, make a rectangular hole that is a little
larger than the total stroke of the switch so
that you can turn the switch ON/OFF without
binding.
Avoid mounting the switch where it can be
covered by engine oil and dust. In general, it is
recommended to mount the power switch on the
side of the fuselage that is opposite the muffler.
Servo throw
Adjust your system so that pushrods will
not bind or sag when operating the servos
to the full extent.
*If excessive force is continuously applied to a servo, the
servo could be damaged due to force on the gear train
and/or power consumption causing rapid battery drain.
Mounting servos
Use a vibration-proof rubber (such as
rubber grommet) under a servo when
mounting the servo on a servo mount. And
be sure that the servo cases do not push
directly to the metal parts such as servo
mount.
*If the servo case contacts the airframe directly, vibration
will travel to and possibly damage the servo.

Link procedure (FMT-03 ⇔ FMR-03)
Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start operation, the
receiver must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link
is made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is
to be used with another transmitter. When you purchase additional FMR-03 receivers, this procedure is
necessary; otherwise the receiver will not work.
Link procedure
1. Place the transmitter and the receiver close
to each other within half (0.5m) meter.
Less than 0.5 m
6. [RECEIVER-ID] is chosen by scrolling and the
RTN button is pushed. The transmitter will emit
a chime as it starts the linking process.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Select [SYSTEM TYPE] at the Linkage menu
and access the setup screen shown below
by pushing the RTN button.
7. When the transmitter starts to chime, power
on the receiver. The receiver should link to
the transmitter within about 1 second.
:You can do this through the LINKAGE Menu
and scroll to System and push RTN.
In "Link" Mode
4. When you use two receivers on one model,
you must change from [SINGLE] to [DUAL].

and repeat the procedure above from Step 2.
9. ACT will be chosen if telemetry is used.
It is INH when not using it.
In DUAL, a primary receiver
is link previously. Next, a
secondary receiver is link.
5. When changing battery fail-safe voltage
from the initial value 3.8V, voltage is
changed here.

33
10. When a telemetry function is enabled,
the receiving interval (down-link interval) of
sensor data can be changed. If a DL interval
is increased, the  response of the sensor data
display becomes slower, but stick response
will improve.
Initial value: 1.0s
Adjustment range: 0.1s~2.0s
* If there are many FASSTest systems turned on around your
receiver, it might not link to your transmitter. In this case,
even if the receiver's LED stays solid green, unfortunately
the receiver might have established a link to one of other
transmitters. This is very dangerous if you do not notice
this situation. In order to avoid the problem, we strongly
recommend you to doublecheck whether your receiver is
really under control by your transmitter by giving the stick
input and then checking the servo response.
*Do not perform the linking operation when the drive motor
is connected or the engine is running.
*When you use two receivers, please be sure to setup a
"primary" and "secondary" in the "dual" mode.
*Telemetry function cannot be used for the 2nd receiver.
* You must link one receiver at a time. If both power
supplies to the receivers are switched on simultaneously,
data is received incorrectly by the transmitter.
* You cannot link three receivers.
* Link is required when a system type is changed.
* Linking is required whenever a new model is made.
WARNING
After the linking is done, please cycle receiver
power and check that the receiver to be linked
is really under the control of the transmitter.
Do not perform the linking procedure with
motor's main wire connected or with the engine
operating as it may result in serious injury.

Range Testing Your R/C System
It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each flying session. This enables you
to ensure that everything is functioning as it should and to obtain maximum enjoyment from your time
flying. The FMT-03 transmitter incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows you to
perform such a range check.
Range check mode
Range check procedure
1. While pushing previously "U.menu/Mon" button.
2. FMT-03 Power ON.
U.menu/Mon
3. Scroll to "NO" and push RTN.
4. "RANGE CHECK" is chosen from
"SYSTEM MENU" and push RTN.
5. "YES" is chosen from "RANGE
CHECK" and push RTN.
During this mode, the RF power output is reduced
so the range test can be performed. In addition, when
this mode is activated the right LED on the front of the
transmitter starts blinking and the transmitter gives users
a warning with a beeping sound every 3 seconds.
The "Range check mode" continues for 90 seconds
and after that the power will return to the normal level.
To exit the "Range check mode" before the 90 seconds,
select the "EXIT" at the screen and touch the RTN button
again. This mode is available one time only so if you
need to re-use this function the transmitter power must
be cycled. NEVER start flying when the "Range check
mode" is active.
Should you require additional time to perform a range
check, highlight Restart before your time expires and
press the RTN button one time.
1. With the "Range check mode" on, walk
away from the model while simultaneously
operating the controls. Have an assistant
stand by the model to confirm that all
controls are completely and correctly
operational. You should be able to walk
approximately 30-50 paces from the model
without losing control.
2. If everything operates correctly, return to
the model. Set the transmitter in a safe, yet
accessible, location so it will be within reach
after starting the engine or motor. Be certain
the throttle stick is in the low throttle position,
then start the engine or motor. Perform
another range check with your assistant
holding the aircraft with the engine running
at various speeds. If the servos jitter or move
inadvertently, there may be a problem. We
would strongly suggest you do not fly until the
source of the difficulty has been determined.
Look for loose servo connections or binding
pushrods. Also, be certain that the battery
has been fully charged.

WARNING
Do not fly in the range check mode.
*Since the range of the radio waves is short, if the model
is too far from the transmitter, control will be lost and the
model will crash.

Cannels connection by multicopter type
The FMT-03 transmitter channels are automatically assigned for optimal combination according to
the type selected with the Model Type function of the Linkage Menu. The channel assignment (initial
setting) for each model type is shown below. Connect the receiver and servos to match the type used.
*The set channels can be checked at the Function screen of the Linkage Menu. The channel assignments can also be changed.

S.BUS Servo Description of function of each parameter
*There are some functions which can only be used with certain types of servos.
• ID
Displays the ID of the servo whose parameters are to be read. It cannot be changed.
• Channel
Channel of the S.BUS system is assigned to the servo. Always assign a channel before use.
• Reverse
The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed.
• Servo type
When “Retractable” is selected and the servo has been continuously stopped for 30 seconds, the dead
band expands and unnecessary hold current due to external force is eliminated. When a new control
signal enters, normal operation is resumed. When using the servo as a landing gear servo, select
“Retractable”. Also adjust the servo travel to match the landing gear movement range.
• Soft Start
Restricts operation in the specified direction the instant the power is turned on. By using this setting, the
first initial movement when the power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the specified position.
• Stop Mode
The state of the servo when the servo input signal is lost can be specified. The "Hold" mode setting holds
the servo in its last commanded position even if using AM or FM system.
• Smoother
This function changes smoothness of the servo operation relative to stick movement changes. Smooth
setting is used for normal flight. Select the "OFF" mode when quick operation is necessary such as 3D.
• Neutral Offset
The neutral position can be changed. When the neutral offset is large value, the servo's range of travel is
restricted on one side.
• Speed Control
Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of multiple servos can be matched
without being affected by motor fluctuations. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque.
However, note that the maximum speed will not be exceed what the servo is capable of even if the servos
operating voltage is increased.
• Dead band
The dead band angle at stopping can be specified.
[Relationship between dead band set value and servo operation]
Small → Dead band angle is small and the servo is immediately operated by a small signal change.
Large → Dead band angle is large and the servo does not operate at small signal changes.
(Note) If the dead band angle is too small, the servo will operate continuously and the current
consumption will increase and the life of the servo will be shortened.
• Travel Adjust
The left and right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently.
• Boost
The minimum current applied to the internal motor when starting the servo can be set. Since a small
travel does not start the motor, it essentially feels like the dead band was expanded. The motor can be
immediately started by adjusting the minimum current which can start the motor.
[Relationship between boost set value and servo operation]
Small → Motor reacts less to a change and operation becomes smooth.
Large → Initial response improves and output torque increases. However, if the torque is too large,
operation will become rough.

47
• Boost ON/OFF
OFF : The boost turns ON at the time of lower-demand operation. (In most cases)
ON : The boost is always ON. (When quick operation is needed)
• Damper
The characteristic when the servo is stopped can be set.
When smaller than the standard value, the characteristic becomes an overshoot characteristic. If the value
is larger than the standard value, the brake is applied before the stop position.
Especially, when a large load is applied, overshoot, etc. are suppushed by inertia and hunting may occur,
depending on the conditions. If hunting (phenomena which cause the servo to oscillate) occurs even
though the Dead Band, Stretcher, Boost and other parameters are suitable, adjust this parameter to a
value larger than the initial value.
[Relationship between damper set value and servo operation]
Small → When you want to overshoot. Set so that hunting does not occur.
Large → When you want to operate so that braking is not applied. However, it will feel like the servo
response has slowed down.
(Note) If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption increase, but the life of the servo
will also be shortened.
• Stretcher
The servo hold characteristic can be set. The torque which attempts to return the servo to the target
position when the current servo position has deviated from the target position can be adjusted.
This is used when stopping hunting, etc., but the holding characteristic changes as shown below.
[Relationship between stretcher and servo operation]
Small → Servo holding force becomes weaker.
Large → Servo holding force becomes stronger.
(Note) When this parameter is large, the current consumption increases.
• Buzzer
When the power supply of a servo is interrupted or a loss of signal from the transmitter, the buzzer sound
of about 2.5Hz continues sounding from a servo.
(Even when the signal output of a transmitter is lost, a buzzer becomes until the signal of a servo is
outputted normally.)
The transmitter has been turned OFF ahead of a servo power supply → The buzzer sound of about 1.25
Hz continues sounding to show that the servo power supply is still turned on.
(Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON.
sound by incorrect recognition.)
A buzzer may
*Buzzer sound is generated by vibrating the motor of a servo.
Since a lot of current is consumed and a servo generates heat during buzzer sounds, please do not
operate the feature more than needed or do not continue sounding a buzzer for a long time.

MODEL SELECT
The Model Selection function performs model addition, call,
deletion, copy, and model name setting.
This function is used to load the settings of the
desired model into the FMT-03’s memory.
The settings may be selected from either the
transmitter’s built-in memory or a micro SD card.
Remember that up to 30 model memories are
available in the transmitter.
The name of the model stored in the transmitter
and the micro SD card may be changed. This can
be very useful to tell different models settings apart.
Each model name can be as long as 15 characters,
and the model name always appears in the display
screen. The Copy function is used to copy one set
of model data into a second memory within the
transmitter and the micro SD card. It may be used
for getting a head-start on setting up models with
almost the same settings (only differences need to
be modified, instead of entering the complete model
from scratch). Also, this function may be used to
make a backup copy of a model setup before any
changes are made.

MODEL TYPE
This function selects the model type from among multicopter,
airplane, helicopter, and glider.
Seven types of main wings and three types
of tail wings are available for airplanes. Eight
swash types are available for helicopters. Seven
types of main wings and three types of tail wings
are available for gliders. Functions and mixing
functions necessary for each model type are set in
advance at the factory.
Note: The Model Type function automatically selects
the appropriate output channels, control functions,
and mixing functions for the chosen model type.
When the Model Type Selection command is
accessed, all of the data in the active memory is

For CCPM helicopters, be sure to read the
section on Swash AFR before reversing any servos.
With CCPM helicopters, always complete your
servo reversing prior to any other programming.
If you use pre-built Airplane/Sailplane functions
that control multiple servos, it may be confusing
to tell whether the servo needs to be reversed or a
setting in the function needs to be reversed. See the
instructions for each specialized function for further
details. Always check servo direction prior to every
flight as an additional precaution to confirm proper
model memory, hook ups, and radio function.

FAIL SAFE
Sets the servos operating position when transmitter signals can no
longer be received or when the receiver battery voltage drops.
The Failsafe function may be used to set up
positions that the servos move to in the case of
radio interference.
You may set either of two positions for each
channel: Hold, where the servo maintains its last
commanded position, or Failsafe, where each
servo moves to a predetermined position. You may
choose either mode for each channel.
The FMT-03 system also provides you with an
advanced battery monitoring function that warns
you when the receiver battery has only a little
power remaining. In this case, each servo is moved
to the defined failsafe position. The battery failsafe
may be released by operating a predefined control
on the transmitter, do not continue to fly, land as
soon as possible. Remember, if the predefined
control suddenly moves to a position you did not
command, land at once and check your receiver
battery.
Defines servo position when signals are lost and
when receiver battery voltage becomes low.
WARNING
For safety, always set the fail safe functions.
●Remember to set the throttle channel fail safe function
so that the servo moves to the maximum slow side for
airplanes and to the slow side from the hovering position
for helicopters. Crashing of the model at full high when
normal radio waves cannot be received due to interference,
etc., is very dangerous.
●If the battery fail safe is reset by the throttle stick, it may
be mistaken for an engine malfunction and will be reset
at throttle slow and the model will continue to fly. If you
have any doubts, immediately land.
● Select [FAIL SAFE] at the linkage menu and call the setup
screen shown below by pushing the RTN button.

TIMER
Timer setting
The Timer function may be set for any desired
time, i.e. engine run time, specified times for
competitions, etc. Two independent timers are
provided for your use. The timers are stored
independently with each model, meaning that
when you switch between model setups, the timer
associated with the new model is brought up
automatically.
The timers may be set to start and stop from
the motion of any switch or stick. You may set the
ON and OFF directions freely. Each timer has a
capacity of up to 59 minutes 59 seconds.
Each timer may be set for count-down or count
up operation with a target time.
If a target time is set and the timer reaches the set
time, a buzzer sound for each count is generated.
Countdown timers sound one short beep during
the last twenty seconds and two short beeps during
the last ten seconds before reaching the target, then
a long tone at the target time, and continue counting
with displaying a minus (-) sign. Count-up timers
also beep the last twenty and ten seconds, beep the
target time, and keep counting upwards until shut
down.

The speed of the aircraft during flight can be displayed.
After flight, the maximum speed during flight can be
viewed. Because this speed is based on position data from
a GPS satellite, the ground speed is displayed instead of
air speed. Consequently, with a head wind, the displayed
speed decreases and with a tail wind, the displayed speed
increases.

*Speed alarm precaution
Since the GPS speed sensor displays the ground speed, it
cannot be used as a stall alarm. For example, an aircraft that
stalls at 50km/h will stall if the tailwind is 5km/h or greater
even through 55km/h is displayed by ground speed. In
addition, with an aircraft that will fail in midflight at 400km/
h at an over-speed alarm, when the headwind reaches 30km/h
the airplane will fail in midair due to over speeding even at a
ground speed of 370km/h.
