TTX610 TRANSMITTER (Tx) NORMAL STICK CONFIGURATIONS LEFT STICK RIGHT STICK Aileron Rudder Mode1: Elevator Mode2: Throttle Mode1: Throttle Mode2: Elevator The TTX610 is available in either a “Mode 2” configuration with throttle on the left and elevator on the right, or “Mode 1” configuration with throttle on the right and elevator on the left. Be sure the radio purchased is of the correct mode. To change between stick modes (mode2 <> mode1), see www. tacticrc.
FLIGHT CONTROLS GIMBAL STICKS Ball-bearing construction allows both sticks to provide the ultimate in smooth, precise control. Stick length can be adjusted for optimum feel and control. Using a 5/64 inch hex wrench, loosen the set screw inside the tip of the stick. Rotate the stick tip counter-clockwise to lengthen or clockwise to shorten the stick. Once the desired stick length is found, tighten the set screw.
CHANNEL 6 This channel offers three-position non-proportional control, and is often used for control of airplane flaps for full up, center, and full down positions. This switch as shown on page 3 can also be used to change the sensitivity setting of gyros or other accessory items. DIGITAL TRIMS One trim lever is included for each of the four main controls, located adjacent to the respective stick. All trims are digital in function, and always rest at mechanical center position.
TRAINER FUNCTION The TTX610 Tx includes both wired and wireless trainer functions. IMPORTANT! Before flying the model in training situations it’s important to make sure all channel reverse settings and trim adjustments on the teacher and student transmitters match! Otherwise, the model could suddenly veer in an unwanted manner when the teacher’s trainer switch is activated.
ELEVON and V-TAIL MIXING The TTX610 includes elevon and v-tail mixing functions. The default setting for all mixing will be “off”, meaning functionality will be suitable for traditional airplane wings and a normal T-shaped tail. To change the mix setting: 1. With the Tx power switch off, move the right stick to the bottomright corner, the left stick to the bottom-left corner, and hold in these positions. 2. Turn the Tx power switch ON. 3. The LED should flash.
RECEIVER and FLIGHT EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION (if applicable) RECEIVER (Rx) LED Link Button Mount the Rx as specified in the model’s instructions. Wrapping the Rx with foam rubber can help to prevent damage resulting from vibration but could prevent adequate airflow from passing over the Rx. See the SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES section for additional Tactic receivers.
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.
SYSTEM CHECK and OPERATION 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 preflight preparations, do not stand the Tx upright on the ground.
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. If 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.

● Do not allow chemicals to come in contact with any parts of the radio system. Substances such as glow fuel, gasoline, CA glue, etc. could permanently damage plastic parts of the radio system. ● If rechargeable batteries were installed in the Tx, remove the batteries before placing the radio in longterm storage. TROUBLESHOOTING RANGE IS SHORT: Interference – check Rx installation. Weak Tx or Rx battery – replace the batteries or recharge as applicable.
