ELECTRIC and COMBUSTION POWERED APPLI IONS ELECTRIC MODELS An optional ESC (electronic speed control) wiil be necessary to control speed 01 the electric motor, and to suppiy power to the receiver and servos. Connect the ESC’s receiver plug to Rx slot marked CH3 (for throttle). Center the transmitters throttle trim and follow the ESC instructions for proper operation and connection of the battery. msmmimmm 9 4} 9mm “Mimi COMBUSTION MODELS Individual “AA" NiCd or NiMH rechargeable batteries can be installed in the included battery holder to power the flight electronics (do not use alkaline cells). An optional rechargeable battery pack could instead be used. See the SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES section on page 12 for suggested options.The included switch harness can conveniently turn power ON/OFF to the flight electronics. Refer to the model’s instructions for the location to mount the battery, Rx, and switch harness for optimum weight distribution. IMPORTANT! Apply power to the Tx BEFORE applying power to the Rx, and make sure the Tx throttle stick is at minimum (idle) poSition. Failure to do so could result in the model becoming uncontrollable and cause a safety hazard. Locate the switch harness away from the propeller and the glow engine exhaust. Cut a hole in the side of the fuselage large enough to allow the switch's lever to move tully from end-to-end - but not so long that the mounting screws cannot be secured to the fuselage. Connect the wire at the “ON" side of the switch to the receiver’s ”BAT" slot. Connect the battery to the appropriate wire at the ”OFF" side of the switch. The remaining wire at the “OFF" side of the switch can be used for re-charging the battery through the switch harness. Make sure the switch is in the ”OFF” position to charge the battery through the switch. LINK THE RECEIVER TO THE TRANSMITTER Linking the TTX61O to the included receiver ensures sole communication between the two, and prevents other transmitters from being able to control the receiver. 1.Turn on the TX. 2. Apply power to the Rx. 3. If the Rx LED flashes once and then stays on, the Rx is already linked to the TX and you can skip to the next section. Otherwise, insert a small diameter screwdriver through the hole marked ”LINK" and press the pushbutton until the Rx LED glows red and then turns off after about one second. 4. Release the “LINK" button. 5. If the linking is successful. the Rx LED will flash once and then remain ON. 6. Test for properTx / Rx functionality before use. If the radio doesn‘t appear to have become properly linked, repeat steps 1-5 above and move the Tx at least three feet away from the Rx. FAILSAFE FU TIO The failsate function is controlled by the included receiver. This function engages in the event the signal from the Tx somehow becomes interrupted. In such case. channels 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 (not channel 3) will hold their last received position. The factory default failsate position for channel 3 is 0% throttle.The throttle’s failsate position can be manually set to any other position if desired, as follows: 1. IMPORTANT: Make sure the servo reversing switches are in the correct position for the application. 2. Apply power to the Tx, then the Rx. 3a. If usmg an ESC: Do NOT arm the ESC, or attempt to adjust the throttle’s failsafe position if the ESC is armed. NOTE: If using an ESC which has a signal loss feature, its pre-set failsate posnion will be irrelevant as the receiver’s failsafe function will cease the throttle operation if the signal becomes lost. 3b. If using a combustion engine: Do NOT attempt to adjust the throttle’s failsafe position while the engine is operating. 4. Move the Tx throttle stick to the desired throttle failsate position. 5. Press and hold the receiver‘s “LINK" button. The Rx's LED should blink twice. Release the LINK button, and the LED should stay on continuously. The Tx and Rx should now be linked, with the 1 0 throttle failsafe in the new position as set above. l i'rxemuinimzamnud m 4} 9/13/2014 9mm i fir? i SYSTEM CHEC nd OPERATI WARNING! Always make sure that power is applied to the transmitter BEFORE applying power to the receiver and servos, and the Tx throttle stick is at minimum (idle) position. Failure to do so could result in the model becoming uncontrollable and cause a safety hazard. During all pre- flight preparations, 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 disiodging the throttle stick which would create a safety hazard. Make sure all devices are properly mounted inside the model, and all wiring connections are solid to prevent them from easily becoming dislodged during normal flight. 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 flight. 2. Move the Tx throttle stick to the minimum (idle) position. 3. Turn on the TX, and then the Fix. 4. Make sure all controls are operating in the proper direction. If any servo is turning in the wrong direction, change the reverse setting for that particular channel. 5. With both sticks at center position, move the trim levers 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 lever is in the center position, 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 wings trailing edge). 6. Make sure movements of the throttle stick result in an equal adjustment of the throttle in the model. Depending on whether the airplane is electric or combustion powered: a. Electric: confirm that when the throttle stick is at maximum position the ESC gives the appropriate indications (LED and/or beeps) for full forward flight. And, when the throttle stick is at minimum position the ESC gives the appropriate indications for “off" or no motor rotation. b. Combustion: confirm that when the throttle stick is at maximum position the mechanical linkage allows the engine to be at full throttle. And. when the throttle stick is at minimum position and the throttle trim lever is moved to minimum position. the engine stops completely. 7. Perform a“range check" to confirm the safe operating distance from the TX to the Rx.With the assistance of another person, place the aircraft on the ground and walk 100 feet (30m) away from the modei.With the TX pointed directly at the model move the controls and confirm all surfaces move appropriately. 8. Anytime power is to be removed from the radio system, it's important to shut down power in the aircraft first. Otherwise, the aircraft could become out of control and cause a safety hazard! Move the throttle stick and throttle trim lever to minimum position to stop the combustion engine or shut down the ESC. Once the propeller has stopped rotating, move the sWitch harness in the model to the OFF position, then disconnect the power battery from the ESC in electric airplanes. Then turn off the power switch on the TX. FLYING THE AIRCRAFT 1. Once all setup procedures have been confirmed, and power has been removed from the model and transmitter, re-attach the propeller to the model and prepare for flight. A IMPORTANT: Be very careful to stay clear from moving propellersl! 2. Make sure the combustion engine's fuel tank has an adequate amount of fuel, and power batteries for electric airplanes are fully charged. 1 1 mammimmm ii 4} 9mm gmmi 3. Move the TX throttle stick to minimum position, then turn on the Tx power switch.Turn on the power switch in the model or connect the flight battery. 4. During the first flight, it might be necessary to re-trim the aileron, elevator, and rudder channels to allow the airplane to sustain smooth, even flight. |f further adjustments are required on the ground, make sure to turn off the engine or ESC/motor beforehand. 5. When the flight is completed, remove power from the system as described before. Shut down power to the electronic speed control or combustion engine first, then the receiver, and finally the transmitter.
