User manual FUTABA FP-6FG

[. . . ] Because of the New 8-BIT integrated circuit device, used in all Futaba Receivers, all Futaba Propo. Systems are supplied with 6 channel capacity receiver FP-R6D. Light weight and miniaturized by NEW 3-Wire Mini-Block connector. Stable operation from 4V to 6. 6V resulting from utilization of the power saving circuits. [. . . ] FP-4DN, FP-5DN, FP-6FG and FP-5 Transmitters are equipped with a built-in transformer-type charger for maximum safety and provided with 8/450 mAH Nickel Cadmium Batteries for dependable operations. With the antenna firmly in place, turn the switch on and the Meter needle will point to 10 or more on the Dial. This is an indication that a Radio signal is being radiated. If the meter needle does not move, check for a possible bad connection in the power supply unit. When the meter needle points below 10, this indicates that the battery is not sufficiently charged. Please be aware that whenever the meter needle falls below 10, the area covered by the signal is diminished. Along side and below each control sticks are two (2) small Black levers. These allow "trim" of all four main controls. You can adjust (Trim) these levers for fine adjustments for all four (4) operations such as throttle, ailerons, elevators and rudder.

If they have not been in use for some time, the batteries should be charged for about 20 hours before use. There is no harm if the charging time is slightly exceeded. When Ni-Cad batteries are completely charged, you can ordinarily expect about 100 minutes of use during a given day, about 10 control sessions of 10 minutes each. Normally Ni-Cad batteries will hold an average voltage however, after this given time period of use, the voltage will drop suddenly so it is recommended that following 7 or 8 control sessions of use, a voltage check be made without fail. For charging the Ni-Cad batteries, connections should be made as shown in the Diagram. For charging either TRANSMITTER only or RECEIVER, both 'A' & 'B' plugs must be plugged into Transmitter bottom as shown in the above diagram. One end of the charging cord should be plugged into "A" at the bottom of the Transmitter and the other end into the wall socket of the household electric power outlet (AC 115V). Use receiver charging harness (red 3 pin connector and Plug) as shown in diagram. Red 3 pin connector should be plugged into battery unit and the other end with plug into Transmitter Marked "B". PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATIONAL TEST AND INSTALLATION 1. After making certain that the Receiver & Servos are hooked up according to the diagram and batteries checked extend the Transmitter antenna to its shortest length and with the receiver antenna in extended condition, if the controls functions properly at the distance of 50 to 100 feet the system is operating normally. However it should be cautioned that this should not continue any longer than Five (5) minutes, otherwise it might damage some components. Never test the system without attaching the antenna to the Transmitter as this will also have and undesirable effect on the instrument. [. . . ] Guarantee is void if this R/C system has been improperly handled, damaged in a crash or tampered with. The guarantee does not cover the replacement of Plastic Housings or Electronics components by the use of improper voltage.
