[. . . ] If the meter pointer deflects to within the red zone, the nickel-cadmium battery is low and must be recharged. Note that the range of the radio waves will become shorter when the meter pointer deflects to within red zone. 5. The "trim" lever of each stick is used for fine adjustment. These levers are used for neutral adjustment of each rudder and to adjust the flying posture after mounting in the fuselage. Open the stand at the rear cover when setting up the transmitter. This stand can be used as a handle by raising it to the topmost position. This is extremely convenient when carrying the transmitter. RECEIVER AND SERVO HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS XTAL . . .

Power supply (FP-3FN doesn't have rudder) FP-R6F WHITE RED Fig. The FP-R6F receiver employs an 8 bit 1C and has been especially designed for 6 channel use. The block connectors which connect the receiver to each servo form a single unit with the receiver. Connect to the servos by verifying the block connector connection positions stamped on the receiver case. Use the white relay connector for the ailerons. Be sure to use the 3P white connector from the switch harness for the power supply (BATT). 4. Since all the servos are manufactured to the same standards, any servo can be used for any purpose. The FP-S6L (reversible servo, red label) in the set can be conveniently used for throttle control with high wing and middle wing airframes. Connection methods are illustrated in Figure 3. Be sure that each connector is plugged in fully and that the power supply switch harness, aileron section, etc. After verifying that all connections are correct by checking them against the connections given in Figure 3, turn the transmitter power switch on. At this time, each servo will stop at the neutral position. Operate sticks and trim levers and verify that respective servos operate positively. [. . . ] After setting the push rod at each servo, operate each servo fully left and right at least once. If the rod catches or sticks at this time, the servo has been damaged by an overcurrent. Therefore verify that the rods are functioning perfectly. For instance, noise signals will be generated by the contact of metal against metal due to engine vibration. [. . . ]
