Transmitter Setup
†
Some of the terminology and function locations used in the iX12 programming may
be slightly different than other Spektrum AirWare™ radios. The names given in
parenthesis correspond to the iX12 programming terminology. Consult your transmitter
manual for speci c information about programming your transmitter.
* Flap programming values may vary slightly. For your initial  ights use the
recommended  ap travel settings provided in the Flaps section and adjust the
 ap travel to your preference on subsequent  ights.
‡
The settings provided above for the DX6 and DX6e do not allow for the use of a SAFE Select
switch. To use a SAFE Select switch on these systems see the section below for transmitter
setup and operation information.
IMPORTANT: After you set up your model, always rebind the transmitter and
receiver to set the desired failsafe positions.
IMPORTANT: The included receiver has been programmed speci cally for
operation in this aircraft. If you desire to use the AR637T receiver in a different
aircraft visit spektrumrc.com for reprogramming instructions.
If your transmitter allows it, enable the throttle cut feature. Always engage
throttle cut before approaching the aircraft.

the pushrods on the servo arm.
NOTICE: If oscillation occurs at high speed, refer to the Troubleshooting
Guide for more information.
