CONTENTS FEATURES . 3 OPENING THE TRANSMITTER REAR COVER AND LOADING THE BATTERIES . 4 CONVERTING TRANSMITTER TO NiCd SYSTEM . [. . . ] This lever can also be used to adjust the neutral position and the flight posture after the mechanism has been mounted. However, after test flight, all adjustments should be made with the rod adjusters, etc. and the lever handle should be left in the neutral position as much as possible. · The throttle stick neutral position can be selected in 5 steps by moving the neutral lever as shown in Fig. Adjust the neutral position to match the application. ·With the NiCd system FP-T3EG, recharge the battery as shown in Fig. · To change the elevator stick from a selfneutral type to a ratchet type, install the slide plate and remove the spring and stick arm as shown in Fig. 3. y Pay careful attention to the polarity y of the 7 pen-cell batteries. Wrap rubber bands around the batteries to hold them in place. Fig. 6(B) Charging the FP-T3EG NiCd. Insert the charger and TX plug into the charging jack on the side of the transmitter. The charging LED at the TX lights to indicate that the battery is being charged. Fig. 6 (A) Converting the transmitter to a NiCd system Remove the charging socket blind cover. ·Use the NT-8C transmitter NiCd battery sold separately ·REVERSINGTHESERVO Fig. 7 After connecting the linkage, check each rudder. If the direction of the rudder and the stick operating direction are opposite, switch the reversing switch. 15 Rudder reverse switch 16 Throttle reverse switch 15 Rudder reverse switch (Reverses the direction of operation of the rudder servo. ) 16 Throttle reverse switch (Reverses the direction, of operation of the throttle servo. ) ·RECEIVER FP-R3F and SERVO FP-S24 ·Plug the charge (FBC-1 or FBC-2A optional) into a 110V outlet and connect the 3P connector of the charger to the receiver/servo NR-4C NiCd battery pack as shown in Fig. The LED on the charger will light to indicate that the NiCd battery is charging. ·The NiCd battery pack can be used about 12 times at 10 minutes/time. · Always recharge the battery before use. · The charging time is about12~15 hours ·With the battery system, insert the four dry-cell batteries, being sure that the polarity is correct, then firmly tighten the coin screw. · Connect the servo and switch as shown in Fig. Then extend the transmitter and receiver antennas fully. ·Set the transmitter POWER switch to ON, then set the receiver POWER switch to ON. The servo will stop near the neutral position. [. . . ] Adjust it to match the course and technique.
