SAFETY INFORMATION

To ensure safe use, observe the following precautions.

Meaning of Special Markings

Pay special attention to safety at the parts of this manual that are indicated by the following marks.

Mark Meaning

Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition and cause death or serious injury to

the user if not carried out properly.

Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition or cause death or serious injury to the

user if not carried out properly, or procedures where the probability of superficial injury or

physical damage is high.

Procedures where the possibility of serious injury to the user is small, but there is a danger

of injury, or physical damage, if not carried out properly.

Symbol:

Prohibited Mandatory

Precautions During Flight

Do not fly or turn "On" simultaneously on the same frequency.

Interference will cause a crash.

Use of the same frequency will cause interference even if the

modulation method (AM, FM, PCM) is different.

Do not fly on rainy or windy days, or at night.

Water will penetrate into the transmitter (Tx) and cause faulty

operation, or loss of control, and cause a crash.

-4-

Do not fly in the following places:

-Near other R/C flying fields (within about 2.5miles [3km]

-Near people on the ground, or objects in the air

-Near homes, schools, hospitals, or other places where there are a lot of people

-Near high tension lines, high structures, or communication facilities

Radiowave interference and obstructions may cause a crash. A crash caused by trouble in the R/C set, or the model

itself, may cause death or property damage.

Do not fly when you are tired, sick, or intoxicated.

Fatigue, illness, or intoxication will cause a loss of concentration or normal judgment and result in operation errors and a

crash.

Extend the antenna to its full length.

If the antenna is shortened, the effective range of the radio signal

will be shorter.

Always test the R/C set before use.

Any abnormality in the R/C set, or model, may cause a crash.

Before starting the engine, check that the direction of operation of

each servo matches the operation of its control stick. If a servo does

not move in the proper direction, or operation is abnormal, do not

fly the plane.

Check that the transmitter (Tx) antenna is not loose.

If the transmitter antenna comes off during use, control will be lost

and the model will crash.

When placing the transmitter (Tx) on the ground during flight preparations, be sure that the wind cannot

knock it over.

If it is knocked over, the throttle stick may be pushed to full throttle, the engine will speed up and create a very

dangerous situation.

Do not touch the engine, motor, or FET amp (speed control) during and immediately after use.

They are hot and will cause a burn.

-5-

Turning on the power switch:

Set the transmitter (Tx) throttle stick to idle.

1. Turn "On" the transmitter (Tx) power switch,

2. Then turn "On" the receiver (Rx) power switch.

Turning off the power switch:

Stop the engine,

1. Turn "Off" the receiver (Rx) power switch,

2. Then turn "Off" the transmitter (Tx) power switch.

If the Tx power switch is turned off first, the engine may go to full throttle unexpectedly and cause an injury.

Idle: The stick direction in which the engine or motor runs at the slowest speed. (usually the down position)

When adjusting the R/C set, always stop the engine.

If the engine suddenly goes to full throttle, it may cause an injury.

Nicd Battery Charging Precautions

Always charge the nicd batteries before each flight.

If the battery goes dead during flight, the plane may crash or fly away.

Charge the R/C nicd battery with the standard charger, or fast field charger. (sold separately)

Overcharging may cause burns, fire, injury, blindness, etc. due to overheating, breakage, electrolyte leakage, etc.

-6-

Do not short the nicd battery connector terminals.

Shorting the terminals will cause sparking and overheating and result in burns or fire.

Do not drop or apply strong shock to nicd battery.

The battery may short out and cause overheating or breakage

and electrolyte leakage and result in burns or damage from

chemical contents.

Storage and Disposal Precautions

Do not leave the R/C set, battery, model airplane, etc. within the reach of small children.

Touching and operating the R/C set, or licking the battery, may cause injury or damage due to chemical content.

Do not throw the nicd battery into a fire or heat the nicd battery. Also, do not disassemble or rebuild the nicd

battery.

Breakage, overheating, and electrolyte leakage may cause injury, burns, or blindness.

Nicd Battery Electrolyte

The electrolyte in a nicd battery is a strong alkali and can cause blindness if it gets in the eyes. If you get the electrolyte

in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with water and see a doctor. If you get the electrolyte on your skin or clothes,

it may cause a burn. Immediately wash it off with water.

-7-

Do not store the R/C set in the following places:

-Where it is very hot (75°F [40C] or more) or very cold (18°F [-10C] or less).

-Where the set will be exposed to direct sunlight.

-Where the humidity is high.

-Where there is strong vibration.

-Where it is dusty.

-Where there is steam and heat.

Storing the R/C set in the places listed above may cause distortion, corrosion and product failure.

If the R/C set will not be used for a long time, remove the nicd batteries from the transmitter and the model and

store them in a dry place.

If the batteries are left in the transmitter and model, the battery electrolyte may leak out and damage the system, degrade

the performance and shorten the life of the transmitter and model.

Nicd Battery Recycling (for USA only)

Used nicd batteries are an important resource. Stick tape over the terminals and take the used batteries to a nicd battery

recycling center.

The RBRC Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery that should be used

in our product, indicates Hobbico is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect

and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful life, when taken out of service in the United

States or Canada. The RBRC program provides a convenient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd

batteries into the trash or the municipal waste system, which is illegal in some areas. Please

call 1-800-822-8837 for information on Ni-Cd battery recycling in your area. Hobbico's

involvement in this program is part of our commitment to preserving our environment and

conserving our natural resources.

Other Precautions

Do not get fuel, oil, etc. on plastic parts.

The plastic may melt, discolor, become brittle and fail to function.

Always use Genuine Futaba transmitters, receivers, servos, ESCs, nicd batteries, and other optional parts.

Futaba is not responsible for damage, etc. caused by the use of parts

other than Genuine Futaba parts.

Use the parts described in the instruction manual and catalogs.

Name and Handling of Each Part

Transmitter T6YG (Front Panel)

Power switch: Turns the transmitter "On" or "Off". In the upper position, the power is turned "On".

Voltage indicator: This is an expanded scale voltmeter. It is not calibrated in volts. When the needle deflects to the

boundary between the silver and red zones, recharge or replace the battery. Do not operate the transmitter if the needle

descends into the red area.

Antenna /Aerial: Never operate the transmitter without extending this antenna or you may create interference to other

modelers. This antenna is not intended to be removable.

Aileron, Elevator, Throttle and Rudder stick: Control each function. See page 14 for the transmitter operation

instructions.

Aileron, Elevator, Throttle and Rudder trim: Used to shift the neutral or idle position of the each servo. As the

throttle stick is moved up towards the high throttle position, the throttle trim will have less effect.

Carrying handle: Provides an easy means of transporting the transmitter.

Neck strap hook: Only clip the neck strap to this hook when neck strap use is required.

Servo reversing switches: Switches that reverse the direction of operation of the servos. The lower position is the

normal side and the upper position is the reverse side.
