2.4GHz Radio Control System
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Thank you for making the Tactic TTX240 2.4GHz system
your choice for radio control! This system uses modern
2.4GHz Spread Spectrum technology – an innovation that
allows for automatic channel selection and interferencefree control of R/C models.
It is strongly recommended to completely
read this manual before use! Damage
resulting from misuse or modification
will void your warranty.
FEATURES
● 2.4GHz Spread Spectrum Technology
● Transmitter can bind to multiple receivers
● Tiny, lightweight receiver with internal antenna
● Built-in fail-safe
● Steering and throttle trim dials
● Steering and throttle servo reversing
● Steering rate adjustment
● Power LED with low battery warning indication
TRANSMITTER
4 “AA”
Cells
-+ - +
-+ -
Figure 1
The transmitter (Tx) requires 4 “AA”
batteries. Non-rechargeable alkaline or
rechargeable nickel-cadmium (NiCd)
or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) cells
can be used. Do not mix old and new
cells, or mix non-rechargeable alkaline
cells with rechargeable NiCd or NiMH
cells, etc. See the SERVOS AND
ACCESSORIES section at the end of
this manual for optional rechargeable
NiCd and NiMH batteries and chargers.
Note the TTX240 transmitter does not
include a charge jack for rechargeable
cells. A separate “AA” cell charger will
be necessary.
To install the batteries, slide open the battery door on the bottom of the Tx
(see figure 1). Install the batteries in the holder as shown in the diagram (see
marks molded inside the case). Make sure to note the proper polarities on
each cell. Close the battery door.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate an R/C model with weak
batteries as it could result in reduced range and/or
possible loss of control!

Press the power switch to turn the Tx
on (see figure 2). The “POWER” LED
should illuminate. If not, turn off the Tx
and check the batteries to make sure
each cell is firmly in place and in the
proper direction. If the Tx LED blinks,
the batteries are low on power and
should be replaced.
When operating the model, carefully
rotate the Tx antenna so that it’s always
locked in the full upright position.

BIND THE RECEIVER TO THE TRANSMITTER
For proper installation and operation of the 2.4GHz transmitter and receiver
system, it is necessary to “bind” them together electronically. This ensures
sole communication between the two and prevents other transmitters from
being able to control the receiver. To bind the Tx and Rx:
1. Turn on the transmitter.
2. Apply power to the receiver (see the INSTALLATION section that follows
for how to do this).
3. If the receiver’s LED flashes once and then stays on, the Rx is already
bound to the Tx and you can skip to the next section. Otherwise, push
and hold the receiver’s “BIND” button until its LED glows red and then
turns off after about one second.
4. Release the bind button.
5. If the binding is successful, the LED will flash once and then remain ON.
6. Test for proper Tx / Rx functionality by completing the next section. If it
doesn’t seem the radio has bound properly, repeat steps 1-6 above.
INSTALLATION
Receiver: Mount the receiver
as specified in your model’s
instructions. As a guideline,
mount in a secure location
using double-sided tape. Route
the servo wires so they do not
interfere with any moving parts.
For boat applications, it’s highly
recommended to wrap the
receiver in a balloon or enclose it
in a water-tight box.

Figure 3
Servos: See the SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES section at the end of this
manual for a full list of optional servos. CENTER THE TRIM DIALS on the Tx.
Mount the servos inside the model and connect the linkages to the servo using
an appropriate length servo arm. Make sure all mechanical linkages are free
of obstructions and can move smoothly. Connect the servos to the receiver as
shown in Figure 3. Turn the transmitter’s trim dials to finely adjust the servo’s
center point as needed to match the installation.
Electronic Speed Control (ESC): If using an electronic speed control, connect
it to channel 2 of the receiver (throttle). Center the transmitter’s throttle trim
and follow the ESC instructions for programming.
Switch / Battery: It may not be necessary to use the included switch harness
and 4-cell battery holder if using an optional electronic speed control (ESC).
Check the instructions with your ESC for further information. Otherwise, mount
the included switch harness into the model as instructed in the model’s manual,
and insert the switch harness’s proper mating plug into the receiver’s “BAT”
slot (bottom). For off-road environments, it’s a good idea to wrap or enclose
the switch harness to prevent dirt from entering the switch and causing poor
operation. Insert four “AA” alkaline, NiCd, or NiMH batteries in the included
4-cell battery holder (note proper polarity). Connect the battery holder to the
switch harness and the switch harness to the BAT slot.
SYSTEM CHECK
Turn on the Tx, then the Rx. Make sure all servos operate according to the
movement of the Tx controls (refer to figure 4).
Steering: Turn the steering
wheel left and right. Make
sure there are no obstructions
with the steering servo’s
movements, and the servo
moves in the proper direction.
If the steering wheel is turned
to the right but the model turns
left, reverse the position of the
Steering Reversing switch.

Figure 4
Steering rate: This dial adjusts
the limits that the steering servo can travel on each side. Turning the dial will
widen or narrow the steering end points. Adjusting this dial to your preference
can help to customize control of steering in different applications.
Throttle: Squeeze the throttle trigger to make the car move forward. If the
car moves backwards, reverse the position of the Throttle Reversing switch.
(See the model’s instruction manual for specific set-up instructions.) Push the
trigger forward for reverse or brake function.
Fail-safe: This radio system includes a “fail-safe” function, which will
automatically center (bring to neutral) all servos if the receiver loses signal
communications from the transmitter. When the receiver regains signal it will
automatically resume normal function.
Range check: The “range” or safe operating distance from the Tx to the Rx is
typically as far as you can clearly see the model. Before operating the model,
perform a simple range check to make sure the transmitter maintains good
radio contact with the receiver within your operating area.

TROUBLESHOOTING
RANGE IS SHORT: Interference – check Rx installation and servo connections.
Low Tx or Rx battery – replace the batteries. Crash damage – send the radio
to Hobby Services for repair.
RUN TIME IS SHORT: Low Tx or Rx batteries – replace the batteries. Obstructed
servo linkages causing excess battery drain – free the linkages / pushrods.
Tx LED ON BUT SERVOS DO NOT FUNCTION: Rx batteries are low –
replace the batteries. Rx switch is in the off position – turn on the ESC or
switch harness. Switch harness or ESC is connected incorrectly – check
all connections and the ESC instruction manual. Rx is not binded to the Tx
properly – perform binding process again.
INTERFERENCE OR SERVOS GLITCHING: Out of range – operate the
model more closely to the transmitter. Outside radio interference (pagers, strong
industrial or other commercial transmitters in the area) – check your local R/C
club for confirmation of dangerous / interfering frequencies in your area.
ONLY ONE SERVO GLITCHES: Servo is bad – replace the servo or send to
Hobby Services for repair.
