HANDLING THE TRANSMITTER FP-T2L

• The below figures show the names of each part of the transmitter. Memorize the names and functions before using your set.
• Remove the battery cover on the rear of the set and load the 7 penlight batteries as shown in the figure, being sure that the polarities are correct.
• Extend the antenna fully and set the power switch to ON. The pointer of the level meter should deflect to the green zone. If it does not deflect, or deflects very little, check the batteries and their connections and polarity.
• If the level meter pointer deflects to the red zone, the receiving range will be short. Therefore, replace the batteries whenever the pointer drops to the boundary between the red and green zones.
• The trim lever fine adjusts the rudder. Use it for neutral adjustment and to correct the flying posture after mounting of the mechanism. After test flight, keep the trim lever in the neutral position as much as possible and adjust pushrod linkage for correction.
  ●The neutral position of the left-hand elevator stick (engine control stick) can be selected in 5 steps by shifting the neutral lever as shown in the figure. Adjust it to match the particular applications.
• Replace the crystal by removing the crystal holder at the rear of the transmitter. AM, crystal, transmitter (T), receiver (R).
  ●The elevator stick is a self-neutral type. To change it to a ratchet type, remove th sliding plate as illustrated in the figure, then remove the spring and swing arm.

HANDLING THE FP-R2GS RECEIVER AND FP-S28 SERVO

• Load the four penlight batteries into the battery holder in the correct polarity, and tighten the cover coin screw.
• Connect the servo and switch securely as illustrated in the figure. Then extend the transmitter and receiver antenna fully.
• Set the transmitter power switch to ON; then set the receiver switch to ON.

The servo stops near the neutral position.

Operate the transmitter sticks and check that the servos faithfully follow movement of the sticks.

• Set the pushrod at each servo horn and check that the direction of operation of each rudder coincides with that of the transmitter controls.
• Operate each servo horn over its operating range, being sure that the pushrods do not bind or bend.

Applying unreasonable force to the servo horn will adversely affect the servo and quickly drain the batteries. Be sure the operating range of the rudder is larger than the fully stroke (including the trim component) of the servo travel. Mount servos so that the servo horns of each servo move smoothly and do not interfere with each other even when the trim lever and stick lever are operated in the same direction simultaneously.

●Pay careful attention to noise.

Intermittent contact of metal parts due to engine vibration, etc. will generate noise and cause the receiver servos to operate erroneously.

We recommend the use of noiseless parts.

- When installing the switch harness, drill a rectangular hole somewhat larger than the full stroke of the switch knob and mount the switch so that it can be turned ON and OFF smoothly and positively. This also applies when the switch is mounted in the fuselage and turned ON and OFF

from the outside with wire, etc. Mount the switch where it will not come into direct contact with engine oil, dust, etc.

● Never cut the receiver antenna; even though it may seem too long.
- When using the receiver and servos in a boat or automobile, waterproof and dustproof the radio compartment. After use, open the radio compartment to prevent condensation.

Wood screw Rubber bushing Grommet

• After mounting and checking each part, range check the system by extending the transmitter to its shortest length and the receiver antenna to its full length. The model should operate at a distance of 20 30m . The rudders (servos) should faithfully follow the operations performed at the transmitter.
  ●The crystal can be changed from outside the receiver case. Always use Futaba pair crystals.
• Install the servos securely. Use servo trays for easy and convenient installation of servo. When installing the servo directly to wood, use an eyelet and flat washers as illustrated in the figure.

●A spare horn is supplied with the set. Use it as needed.
●Pack the receiver in sponge rubber and wrap the rubber with rubber bands.

Mount the receiver at the center where it will not be affected by engine vibrations and will not directly touch the fuselage.

• If the receiver is to be used near water, such as in a boat or seaplane, waterproof it by placing it in a plastic bag and sealing the mouth of the bag with rubber bands. After use, immediately remove the receiver from the bag to prevent condensation.
• Also pack the receiver and servo batteries in sponge rubber and wrap the sponge with rubber bands. When used in an airplane, shifting of the batteries will change the center of gravity of the plane. After positioning the batteries, fasten them securely. Waterproof the connectors in the same manner as the receiver.
• Fasten the servo and switch leads with the same rubber bands used to wrap the receiver.
  ● Futaba three-wire servos can be used with any Futaba transmitter and receiver combination. (Except "J" series)
• After mounting and checking all the parts, take your set to your hobby dealers, or an experienced radio control enthusiast, and ask them to inspect it and explain the handling and precautions for radio control models.
• To enjoy your radio control model to the fullest, always follow the instructions of an experienced radio control enthusiast and strictly obey all safety regulations.

MODIFICATION TO NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERY

●Using the Futaba FBPK-4 (L Series NiCd battery charger set), modify the transmitter power supply as shown in the figure.

● A nickel-cadmium battery (NR4C) can be used as the receiver and servo power supply without any modification.

Be sure the polarity is correct when soldering this wire to the switch. Solder RED BLACK Remove the transmitter rear cover screws and install and connect the prewired jack. Dummy battery Remove the dummy, cut off the ribbon, and insert the Nicad battery, being sure that the polarity is corre

• Remove the transmitter rear cover blind plate and install the cover with the screws.
• Normally, charge the battery for about 15 hours. If the battery has not been used for a long time, charge it for 20 hours.

20 hours. AC110V (220V - 240V) Charging jack Rx Tx FBC - 2 (F) NR - 4 C

Handling the nickel-cadmium battery

Since the battery contact may be faulty when the battery cannot be charged, or discharges quickly, remove the battery from the battery holder and wipe the (+) and (−) contact surfaces shown in the figure with a dry cloth (do not use an organic solvent, etc.). To prevent malfunctions due to faulty battery contact, it is suggested that the battery be removed and cleaned about once every 1 to 2 months.

(Note) Because the battery contact surfaces are made of nickel plated iron, do not clean them with a file, sandpaper, etc.; otherwise the surfaces may rust.

• The frequency of Futaba digital proportional sets can be changed among bands (1) \~ (6) on the 27MHz band only.
  ● However, a 27MHz band set cannot be changed to 72MHz band, and vice versa.
• Therefore, always attach the correct frequency flag to the end of the transmitter antenna. Each frequency band has its own designated color, as stated in the left. The

frequency flag is intended for identification purposes.

• Also change the frequency flag when frequency is changed.
• Futaba paired crystals are precisely matched. Always use a Futaba crystal set (transmitter, receiver) when changing the frequency.
• It is illegal to change crystals of transmitter on the 72-75MHz bands in the U.S.A.

Splined Horn

This horn permits shifting of the servo neutral position at the servo horn. Setting and shifting the neutral position

a) Angle divisions

1) The splined horn has 25 segments. The amount of change per segment is: 360 ÷ 25 = 14.4^

2) The minimum adjustable angle is determined by the number of arms or number of the hoies. For four arms, the minimum adjustable angle is:

$$ 3 6 0 ^ {\circ} \div \frac {(2 4 \times 4)}{\text { Number of divisions }} = 3. 6 ^ {\circ} $$

b) Effect

To shift the holes center line to the right (clockwise) relative to baseline A, shift arm 2 to the position of arm 1 and set it to the position closest to baseline A.

[Example] For a four arm horn, the angular shift per segment is 14.4^ . The shift to the right is 90^ - (14.4 × 6) = 3.6^

To shift by the same angle in the opposite direction, use the opposite arm number.

For a six arm horn, turn the arm counterclockwise and set arm 2 to the position of arm 1. The adjustable angle is 60^ - (14.4 × 4) = 2.4^ . Arm 3 shift 4.8^ to the right, arm 6 shifts 2.4^ to the left, and arm 4 shifts 7.2^ to the right and left.
