. AN COMPATIBLE RECEIVER
The SLT technology ensures that transmitters emit a strong, clear, frequency-
hopping 2.4GHz signal, and that your compatible receiver accepts only your signal.
Binding most Tactic brand receivers is as simple as pushing a button. The 'I'I'X610
55(qu LiNKTECHNOLOGV is also compatible with all transmitter-ready aircraft bearing the Tx-FtTM logo, and
non-Tactic brand receivers having the SLT protocol’.

INPUT POWER
Four 1 .5V “AA" alkaline batteries or 1.2V rechargeable nickel-cadmium (NiCd) or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH)
batteries are required (not included). Do not mix cell types, or old and new cells, etc. See the SERVOS AND
ACCESSORIES section on page 12 for optional batteries available at local hobby retailers. Slide open the
battery door. Insert all cells with the proper polarity as shown inside the battery holder. Close the battery door.
to tind detailed instructions.
POWER SWITCH, LED, AND LOW BATTERY ALARM
The red LED should light when the power sWitch is moved upwards to the “ON” pOSition. TheTx should have
adequate power tor ilight when the LED is on constantly. Flashing oi this LED accompanied by beeps means
the Tx batteries have weakened and operation of the model should NOT be attempted!
WARNING! Never operate an RIC model with weaka batteries! Reduced operational range
and/or possible loss of control of the aircratt could result. Replace weak alkaline batteries,
or re-charge NiCd or NiMH batteries betore attempting a tlight! It this alarm activates
during tlight land the aircraft immediately! Failure to do so could result in destruction of
the model and possibly bodily injury!
CHARGE JACK AND CHARGING RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
WARNING!! Do NOT attempt to recharge alkaline batteries! The charge jack should ONLY be
used if rechargeable cells are used in the transmitter. Do not accidentally short circuit the terminals
inside the charge jack as permanent damage could result and void the warranty.
The TTX610 includes a built-in charge jack for convenient recharging ot
NiCd or NiMH batteries, and is compatible With charge leads designed
tor Futaba® brand transmitters with the center pin being positive polarity.
This jack is NOT compatible with charge leads for Hitec’”, Airtronicsfi’, JR”
or Spektrum’” radios. Always make sure to use a charger (not included) TTst 0 Charge Jack
which is 100% compatible with the selected battery type.
To use the charge jack, make sure the Tx power switch is in the OFF position. Connect a compatible charge
lead (such as TACP0101) to the charger first, then to the Tx charge jack. Follow the instructions included
with the charger.
WARNING” Do not charge batteries at currents greater than 1 amp through this charge
jack. Misuse, improper charging, or over-charging of rechargeable cells can result in
damage to the cells that could include cell rupture, explosion, or tirel!

GIMBAL STICKS
Ball-bearing construction allows both sticks to provide the ultimate in
smooth, precise control. Stick length can be adjusted for optimum feel
and control. Using a 5/64 inch hex wrench, loosen the set screw inside
the tip of the stick. Rotate the stick tip counter-clockwise to lengthen or
clockwise to shorten the stick. Once the desired stick length is found,
tighten the set screw.
AILERON [cmi
Controls the moveable surtaces at the end of both main wings to rotate the airplane about the “roll" axis (an
imaginary line which extends from the airplane's nose to the tail). The aileron reversing switch must be set so
moving the aileron stick to the right will cause the airplane’s right aileron to deflect 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.
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, trom one wing tip to the other wing tip).
The elevator reversing switch must be set so that pulling the elevator stick back (towards you) will cause
the elevators to deflect up, thus causing the nose of the airplane to rise. Pushing the elevator stick torwards
(away from you) will cause the nose of the airplane to drop. When using the ailerons to bank the airplane’s
wings, pulling the elevator stick back will help the aircraft maintain altitude and turn the aircraft more quickly.
THROTTLE [CH3]
Controls the speed (R.P.M.) at which the engine or electric motor operates. With the throttle reversing switch
in the normal position, pulling the throttle stick back will cause the engine's speed to decrease. Pushing the
throttle stick fonrvard will cause the engine’s speed to increase.
RUDDER [CH4]
Controls the sideways 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 rudder reversing switch must be set so that moving the rudder stick to the right
causes the rudderto deflect 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 using the rudder in conjunction
with the ailerons, the airplane’s nose can point into a turn (instead of pointing up and “skidding" through the
turn), allowing the airplane to perform tighter, more coordinated turns.
CHANNEL 5
This channel offers two-position non-proportional control and is typically used to control retractable landing
gear, controlled by the switch shown on page 3. Rotational servo movement is limited to full clockwise
movement and full counter-clockwise movement.
mmmmmm 5 4} 9mm “Howl
CHANNEL 6
This channel offers threerposition nonrproportional control. and is often used for control of airplane flaps for full up,
center, and full down positions.This sWitch as shown on page 3 can also be used to change the sensitivity setting
of gyros or other accessory items.
DIGITAL TRIMS
One trim lever is included for each of the four main controls, located adjacent to the respective stick. All trims are
digital in function, and always rest at mechanical center position. Briefly depressing the lever to either side away
from center will cause the respective servo output to finely rotate to one direction. Pressing and holding the trim
lever will cause the servo output to move repeatedly. Ideally during a flight, when the main sticks are released
and spring back to center position the aircraft should not veer in any direction. It the aircratt veers in a particular
direction, click the respective trim lever until the aircraft maintains a straight attitude on its own.
For airplanes with glow engines, the position of the throttle trim lever is helptul fordetermining the engine's preferred
idle point. The throttle trim lever is not active when the main throttle stick is above 50% full throttle.
REVERSING SWITCHES
Inside the battery compartment is a bank of switches, with one reversing switch for each channel. Each
switch can reverse the rotational direction of the servo that is connected to that respective channel.This is
often a much easier method for changing the direction of a servo's movement as opposed to altering the
mechanical connections between the model's surface and the servo. Refer to the model's instructions for
specific details.
The switch bank is numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 for each respective channel. Moving the small switch lever
for the respective channel number will change the direction of control for that channel.
DUAL RATE SWITCH
The travel distance of the servos for the aileron, elevator, and rudder channels can be changed at any time
by using the sWitch marked AIL / ELE / RUD D/R, located above the right stick.This switch will change the
travel distance of all three channels at the same time (not separately).With the switch in one position, each
channel‘s servo will be capable of rotating through its full travel range (100%). Moving the switch to the
opposite position will limit the rotational range of each channel's servo to 60% of its maximum rotational
range. Placing the dual-rate switch in one position can allow for better control of the model while on the
ground, at low altitudes, or while performing certain maneuvers. Moving the sWitch to the opposite position
can allow for optimum control of the aircraft in mid-flight.

TRAINER FUNCTIO
The TTX610 TX includes both wired and Wireless trainer functions.
IMPORTANT! Before flying the model in training situations it's important to make sure all channel
reverse settings and trim adjustments on the teacher and student transmitters match! Othenrvise, the
model could suddenly veer in an unwanted manner when the teacher’s trainer switch is activated.
Proper matching oi the student and teachers Tx settings should ensure that no unexpected
movements occur when the trainer switch is pressed.This is especially true at the throttle control!
WIRED TRAINER
This option allows for connection to anotherTx having a trainerjack, and can function as eitherthe teacher
or student’s Tx.This also allows for connection of the TTX61 O to some computer based flight simulators. See
the SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES section on page 12 for recommended trainer cords. Refer to instructions
included with those cords. To properly assign control of the aircraft to the teacher/student when using two
Tactic brand transmitters lor training, follow these steps in order:
1. Link the teacher’s Tx to the receiver inside the aircraft as explained on page 10. Remove power from
the RX, then the TX.
2. Connect the student’s Tx to the teacher’s Tx with the appropriate trainer cord.
3. Turn the student‘s transmitter power switch ON.
4. Turn the teacher‘s transmitter power switch ON.
5. To transfer control oi the aircraft to the student, pull the teacher’s trainer switch and hold. Release
the switch to immediately return control of the aircraft to the teacher.
6. When the training session has ended and power has been safely removed from the model, disconnect
the trainer cord.
WIRELESS TRAINER
This option allows tor communication with anotherTactic Tx by Wireless means, and can function as the teacher
or student's Tx.This tunction is not compatible with other brand radios.
1. Link the teacher’s Tx to the receiver inside the aircraft. Remove power from the Fix, then the Tx.
2. The student must use a separate Tactic Tx with Wireless trainer function.
3. Place both transmitters Within 1 meter 01 each other, With the throt1le stick for each TX in the idle position.
4. Turn the student‘s Tx power switch ON.
5. Full and hold the teacher’s Tx trainer SWitch, and then turn the teacher's Tx power switch ON.
6. The LED on the teacher's Tx will flash 3 times to indicate it has linked to the student’s Tx.
7. Release the trainer switch on the teacher’s Tx.
8. Once both transmitters are linked together, power can be applied to the th to prepare for flight. Make
sure both transmitters are kept within 15 feet of each other at all times while training.
9. To transfer control of the aircraf1 to the student, pull the teacher’s trainer sWitch and hold. Release
the switch to immediately return control of the aircraft to the teacher.
10. When the training session has ended and power has been salely removed from the model, turn
OFF the power switch of both transmitters.This will break the wireless link between both transmitters.
Return to step 1 above to re-establish the wireless link for additional training.

ELEV N and AIL MIXING
The TTX610 includes elevon and v-tail mixing functions. The default setting for all miXing will be “off", meaning
functionality will be suitable tor traditional airplane wings and a normal T-shaped tail.To change the mix setting:
‘i.With the Tx power switch off, move the right stick to the bottom-
right corner, the left stick to the bottom-left corner, and hold in
these positions.
2. Turn the Tx power switch ON.
3. The LED should flash. If accompanied by two beeps the V-tail mix function has been activated. “Vrtai|"
is a mixture of the elevator and rudder channels. Two servos are used in the tail; one for each control
surface.This will control the airplane's “pitch" and “yaw" axis at the same time. If the elevator and rudder
functions appear reversed at the control surfaces it may be necessary to swap the channel 2 and channel
4 servo plug positions in the receiver. If this is the desired mix function move to the next section.
4.To skip the V-tail mix and instead activate the eleven (delta
chE Ch4 chE Ch4 chE UNI wing) mixer, turn the Tx power switch OFF and repeat the
above procedure. When the flashing LED is accompanied
by three beeps the elevon mixer will be active. “Elevon” is
a mixture of the elevator and aileron channels and controls
Left: Rudder Right: Rudder Up Elevator the airplane’s “pitch" and “roll" axis simultaneously. One
servo is used for each control surface. If the elevator and
Aileron aileron functions appear reversed at the control
Function surfaces it may be necessary to swap the
channel 1 and channel 2 servos‘ plug positions
at the receiver.
5. To cancel all mixes, repeat this procedure
gut-Q again.When the flashing LED is accompanied
Elevator by one beep all mixes will be oft.
Function
STABILIZATION GYROS
Optional stabilization gyros can be used to help maintain stable control of an airplane during flight. Gyros
can supply feedback to the aileron, elevator, and rudder controls separately. Many gyros also ofler the ability
to change the sensitivity of the on-board sensors during flight. By connecting a gyro’s input connector to
receiver channel 6, the TTX610’s channel 6 switch can be used to change between the gyro’s different
sensitivity selections. See the gyro’s instructions for details about all connections and settings.
