INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a FutabaÂŽ S-FHSS-2.4GHz* 8J series digital proportional R/C system. This system
is extremely versatile and may be used by beginners and pros alike. In order for you to make the best use of
\RXUV\VWHPDQGWRÀ\VDIHO\SOHDVHUHDGWKLVPDQXDOFDUHIXOO\,I\RXKDYHDQ\GLI¿FXOWLHVZKLOHXVLQJ\RXU
system, please consult the manual, our online Frequently Asked Questions (on the web pages referenced
below), your hobby dealer, or the Futaba Service Center.
*S-FHSS: Super- Futaba Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum
Owner’s Manual and Additional Technical Help
This manual has been carefully written to be as helpful to you, the new owner, as possible. There are many
pages of setup procedures and examples. However, it need not be your sole resource of setup guidelines for
your 8J. For example, pages 27-29 include setup instructions for a basic 4-channel airplane. The Frequently
Asked Questions web page referenced below includes this type of step-by-step setup instructions for a
variety of other model types, including multi-engine, complex gear installation, 7-servo aerobatic models,
140 degree CCPM, etc.
http://www.futaba-rc.com/faq
Due to unforeseen changes in production procedures, the information contained in this manual is subject to
change without notice.
Support and Service: It is recommended to have your Futaba equipment serviced annually during your
hobby’s “off season” to ensure safe operation.

FLYING SAFETY
WARNING
To ensure the safety of yourself and others, please observe the following precautions:
Have regular maintenance performed. Although your 8J 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

WARNING & ERROR DISPLAYS
An alarm or error indication may appear on the display of your transmitter for a number of reasons, including
when the transmitter power switch is turned on, when the battery voltage is low, and several others. Each
display has a unique sound associated with it, as described below.
LOW BATTERY ERROR: Warning sound: Continuous beep until transmitter is powered off.
The LOW BATTERY warning is displayed when the transmitter battery voltage drops below 4.1V. (5CELL mode
4.9V)
Land your model as soon as possible before loss of control due to a dead
battery.
MIXING ALERT WARNING: Warning sound: 5 Beeps (repeated until problem resolved or overridden)
The MIXING ALERT warning is displayed to alert you whenever you turn on
the transmitter with any of the mixing switches active. This warning will
disappear when the offending switch or control is deactivated. Switches for
which warnings will be issued at power-up are listed below. Throttle cut,
idle-down, snap roll, airbrake, throttle-stick and condition. If turning a switch OFF does not stop the
mixing warning: When the warning does not stop even when the mixing switch indicated by the
warning display on the screen is turned off, the functions described previously probably use the same
switch and the OFF direction setting is reversed. In short, one of the mixings described above is not in
the OFF state. In this case, reset the warning display by pressing both ＋ / − KEY at the same time.
Next, change one of the switch settings of the duplicated mixings.
BACKUP ERROR: Warning sound: 4 beeps (repeated continuously)
The BACKUP ERROR warning occurs when the transmitter memory is lost for any reason. If this occurs, all of
the data will be reset when the power is turned on again.
'RQRWÀ\ZKHQWKLVPHVVDJHLVGLVSOD\HG: all programming has been erased
and is not available. Return your transmitter to Futaba for service.

A LOOK AT THE RADIO'S FUNCTIONS STEP BY STEP
MODEL SELECT submenu: includes three functions that manage model memory: MODEL SELECT, MODEL COPY and MODEL
RESET. Since these functions are all related, and are all basic features used with most models, they are together in the
MODEL SELECT submenu.
MODEL SELECT: This function selects which of the 20 model memories in the
