2TTX402 TRANSMITTER (Tx)The TTX402 4-Channel Micro airplane transmitter can be conﬁ gured to operate as a 3-channel or 4-channel Tx. When conﬁ gured for 4-channel operation the controls function like a normal Mode-2 transmitter with aileron + elevator on the right stick, and throttle + rudder on the left stick.Conﬁ guring the Tx for 3-channel operation can help beginners concentrate on throttle control with one hand and full airplane directional control with the other hand. Here, the right stick operates elevator + rudder while the left stick will control the throttle. The aileron function will still be active, and now be on the left stick, but aileron control is often not needed for 3ch aircraft. See the diagram above for details.To change the TTX402 transmitter between 3ch and 4ch conﬁ gurations:1. Turn off the Tx power switch.2. Move the right stick to the top-right corner, and the left stick to the top-left corner, and hold in these positions.3. Move the Tx power switch to the On position. The power LED will ﬂ ash, accompanied by three short tones from the Tx which indicates the Tx conﬁ guration has been changed.Note that each time the Tx power switch is turned on you will hear either one short tone if the Tx is in the 3ch conﬁ guration, or two short tones if the Tx is in the 4ch conﬁ guration.TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 2TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 2 4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM

3INPUT POWERFive “AA” batteries are required to power the Tx (not included with individual radio systems). Non-rechargeable 1.5V alkaline, or 1.2V rechargeable nickel-cadmium (NiCd) or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) cells can be used. Do not mix cell types, old and new cells, etc. See the SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES section on page 12 for optional products available at local hobby retailers.Slide the battery door down, and insert the cells. Make sure to note proper polarity for each cell. Reinstall the battery door.POWER LED, and LOW BATTERY ALARMThe power LED should light when the power switch is moved upwards to the on position. The Tx should have adequate power for ﬂ ight when the LED is on constantly. Anytime the LED begins to ﬂ ash, accompanied by an audible tone, the Tx battery voltage has dropped too low and operation of the model should NOT be attempted!WARNING! Never operate an R/C model with weak Tx batteries! Reduced operational range and/or possible loss of control of the aircraft could result. Replace weak alkaline batteries, or re-charge NiCd or NiMH batteries before attempting a ﬂ ight!If during a ﬂ ight audible tones sound and the power LED starts to ﬂ ash the Tx batteries have become weak and the aircraft should be landed as soon as possible!AILERON (CH1)Controls the moveable surfaces at the trailing edge of the main wings to rotate the airplane about the “roll” axis (an imaginary line which extends from the airplane’s nose to the tail). Since every airplane is different, the direction of movement for the aileron channel may need to be reversed so that moving the aileron stick to the right will cause the airplane’s right aileron to deﬂ ect up, thus causing the right wing to drop and the airplane will bank to the right. Moving the aileron stick to the left will cause the airplane’s left wing to drop and the airplane will bank to the left. This is one important method for turning the aircraft. When the Tx is set to the 3ch conﬁ guration the aileron channel will not be used.ELEVATOR (CH2)Controls the moveable horizontal surfaces on the airplane’s tail to rotate the airplane about the “pitch” axis (an imaginary line extending through the center of both main wings, from one wing tip to the other wing tip). The direction of movement for the elevator channel may need to be reversed so that pulling the elevator stick back (towards you) will cause the elevator to deﬂ ect up, thus causing the nose of the airplane to rise. Pushing the elevator stick forward (away from you) will cause the nose of the airplane to drop.TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 3TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 3 4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM

4THROTTLE (CH3)Controls the speed (R.P.M.) at which the motor operates. Pushing the throttle stick forward will cause the motor’s speed to increase. Pulling the throttle stick back will cause the motor’s speed to decrease. Always place the throttle stick at the low position before switching on the transmitter.RUDDER (CH4)Controls the side-to-side movement of the airplane’s tail and will rotate the airplane about the “yaw axis” (an imaginary line from the top of the airplane’s fuselage to the bottom of the fuselage, located near the center-point of the fuselage). The direction of movement for the rudder channel may need to be reversed so that moving the rudder stick to the right causes the rudder to deﬂ ect to the right, thus causing the nose of the airplane to point to the right. Moving the rudder stick to the left will cause the nose of the airplane to turn left. When the Tx is set to the 3ch conﬁ guration the rudder will be controlled by the right stick. Otherwise, rudder is controlled with the left stick.TRIMSAll trims are digital in function. Two trim buttons are included for each of the main controls, located adjacent to the respective stick. One trim button adjusts the servo’s direction in one direction, and the other button to the opposite direction. Brieﬂ y pressing any trim button will adjust the center position of the respective servo output in the appropriate direction and will be accompanied by an audible tone. Pressing and holding any trim button will cause the servo output to move repeatedly. A unique tone will sound when the servo reaches either end of the trim limit, and at the channel’s center point. During a ﬂ ight, when the main sticks are released and spring back to center position the aircraft should ideally not veer in any direction. If the aircraft does veer in a particular direction, press the respective trim button until the aircraft maintains a straight attitude on its own.REVERSING CHANNEL DIRECTIONThe direction of movement for any of the four channels can be reversed electronically. To change the direction of movement for any channel:1. Switch off the Tx power switch.2. Press and hold either trim button for the channel to be reversed. 3. Switch the Tx power switch on. The LED should ﬂ ash to indicate the movement for that channel has been reversed.4. Repeat steps 1-3 to reverse the direction of any other channel as needed.5. Switch the Tx power switch off.TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 4TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 4 4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM

5BUILT-IN 1S LIPO CHARGERA 1S LiPo charger is built into the TTX402 transmitter itself. This charger is designed speciﬁ cally for charging a micro 1S 3.7V LiPo cell having a micro connector. Charge current is rated at 250mAh, with a maximum charge voltage of 4.20V. Charging will begin automatically when the battery is connected, and automatically stop when full charge is detected. It is not recommended to charge a 1S LiPo while ﬂ ying.1S LiPo Batteryattery1. Make sure the Tx power switch is in the off position.2. Looking at the rear of the Tx, slide open the charger door by moving it to the right.3. Connect the 1S LiPo battery to the socket inside the battery door. When a proper connection has been made and the battery is being charged, the “CHARGE” LED will illuminate.4. When charge is complete the CHARGE LED will turn off. .IMPORTANT WARNINGS REGARDING LIPO BATTERY USE!!NEVER ATTEMPT TO CARE FOR LITHIUM-POLYMER (LiPo) CELLS IN THE SAME WAY AS OTHER BATTERY TYPES! LiPo cells are much more sensitive and volatile than NiCd or NiMH batteries. Misuse and overcharge can quickly result in LiPo cells getting hot and/or swelling, which could lead to VIOLENT EXPLOSION AND/OR FIRE and serious personal injury and property damage.● NEVER attempt to recharge other battery types except 1S LiPo cells with this built-in charger.● NEVER continue to charge or use LiPo cells if they start to swell or become overly warm to the touch. Failure to follow this guideline could cause the battery to become hot and explode or ignite!! ● ALWAYS disconnect the battery from the charger immediately if the battery becomes hot! Allow the battery to cool before use.TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 5TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 5 4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM4/20/2011 9:51:26 AM

Keep away from carpets, cluttered workbenches, etc.● ALWAYS have a “class D” ﬁ re extinguisher available when handling LiPo batteries.● If a LiPo cell leaks ﬂ uid, do not get ﬂ uid on the skin, in the eyes or mouth, etc. If you make contact with ﬂ uid from a LiPo battery, rinse the affected area well with water and seek immediate medical care.TR421 4CH Rx CONTROL BOARDThe optional TR421 4-Channel Rx Control Board integrates a Tactic 2.4GHz receiver, two linear actuation servos, and a 3A brushed ESC onto one device. Sockets are mounted on the board for connection of an optional servo actuator such as the Tactic TSX21 Linear Servo Actuator (TACM0021), and an external brushless ESC.BIND THE RECEIVER TO THE TRANSMITTERIf included with the TTX402, the TR421 Rx will auto-bind with the transmitter once powered. This bind ensures sole communication between the two, and prevents other transmitters from controlling your model. If it’s necessary to re-bind the board to the transmitter:1. Switch on the Tx. 2. Connect the battery to the Rx Control Board. Only use single cell, 3.7V LiPo batteries with a micro connector with the TR421 Rx Control Board. See SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES on page 12 for recommendations.3. The Rx LED on the bottom side of the board will turn on, indicating the Rx is bound to the Tx.4. Test for proper Tx / Rx functionality in the next section. If the system did not become properly binded, repeat steps 1-3 above.TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 6TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 6 4/20/2011 9:51:27 AM4/20/2011 9:51:27 AM

8USING AN OPTIONAL BRUSHLESS ESC:A socket is provided on the Rx Control Board for the connection of an external 1S brushless electronic speed control. To use the Rx Control Board with a brushless ESC instead of the on-board brushed ESC, simply connect the brushless ESC to this socket. The on-board brushed ESC will automatically be de-activated.SYSTEM CHECK AND OPERATIONWARNING! During all pre-ﬂ ight preparations with the aircraft on the ground, make sure the throttle stick remains at the minimum position and do not stand the Tx upright on the ground. Carefully lay the Tx on its back on the ground to prevent it from falling over and possibly dislodging the throttle stick from the low position which would create a safety hazard. Make sure all devices are properly mounted inside the model, and all wiring connections are secure to prevent them from easily becoming dislodged during ﬂ ight. For safety it’s best to check the system with the propeller removed from the aircraft.1. Once all connections are made, check the general operation of the radio and all other components before attempting a ﬂ ight.2. Move the Tx throttle stick to the minimum (idle) position.3. Turn on the Tx, and then the Rx.4. Make sure all controls are operating in the proper direction. If any servo is turning in the wrong direction, change the reversing for that particular channel.5. With both sticks at center position, move the trims for the aileron, elevator, and rudder channels so each respective control surface is perfectly aligned with the main surface. For example: When the aileron trim is at center it’s best that the trailing edge of the aileron is aligned with the trailing edge of the wing itself (not above or below the wing’s trailing edge).6. Make sure that movements of the throttle stick result in an equal adjustment of the motor R.P.M. in the model.7. Perform a “range check”. The “range” is the safe operating distance from the Tx to the Rx, and should be 150 meters. With the assistance of another person, place the aircraft on the ground and walk 100 feet (30m) away from the model. With the Tx pointed directly at the model, operate the transmitter’s controls, and ensure the movement of all surfaces is according to the movement of the transmitter.8. Anytime power is to be removed from the radio system, it’s important to shut down power in the aircraft ﬁ rst. Otherwise, the aircraft could become out of control and cause a safety hazard! Move the throttle stick to minimum position to shut down the ESC. Once the propeller has stopped rotating, shut off the ON/OFF power switch in the model, and disconnect the power battery from the ESC in electric airplanes. Then turn off the power switch in the Tx.TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 8TACJ2402 Mnl.indd 8 4/20/2011 9:51:29 AM4/20/2011 9:51:29 AM

9FLYING THE AIRCRAFT1. Once all setup procedures have been conﬁ rmed, and power has been removed from the model and transmitter, re-attach the propeller to the model.IMPORTANT: Be very careful to stay clear from moving propellers!!2. Make sure the airplane’s power batteries are fully charged.3. Move the Tx throttle stick to minimum position, then switch on the Tx power switch. Turn on the power switch in the model.4. During the ﬁ rst ﬂ ight, it might be necessary to re-trim the aileron, elevator, and rudder channels to allow the airplane to sustain level hands-off ﬂ ight. If further adjustments are required on the ground, beware that the on-board brushed ESC will still be active (if used).5. When the ﬂ ight is completed, remove power from the system as described before. Shut down power to the Rx Control Board ﬁ rst, then the transmitter.SAFETY GUIDEThe Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) has established an Ofﬁ cial Safety Code.
