Frequently Asked Questions - NX6 SPEKTRUM

How do I bind the NX6 transmitter to the AR6610T receiver?

To bind, first power on the transmitter. Then push and hold the bind button on the receiver while powering it on. When the orange LED flashes, put the transmitter in bind mode. The LED will become solid when binding is complete. See the manual for detailed steps.

How do I set up failsafe on the AR6610T receiver?

Failsafe is set via Forward Programming on the transmitter. In the transmitter menu, select Forward Programming > Settings > Failsafe. Choose Preset or Hold Last for each channel. For preset, use Capture Failsafe Positions to set desired control positions.

Can I update the transmitter firmware without a computer?

Yes, the NX6 supports WiFi updates. Go to System Settings > WiFi Utilities, connect to your network, log in to your Spektrum account, and select Check for Updates to download and install new firmware directly.

How long does the transmitter battery last and how do I charge it?

The NX6 has a 2000mAh Li-Ion battery providing several hours of use. Charge via the micro USB port on the back using a standard USB power supply. The charge indicator shows status. Never leave charging unattended and avoid overnight charging.

How do I create a new model in the transmitter?

Go to System Setup > Model Select, scroll to the bottom and select 'Add New Model'. Choose a model type (Airplane, Helicopter, Sailplane, Multirotor) or use a template. The transmitter will guide you through naming and configuring the model.

Can I use telemetry sensors with the NX6?

Yes, the NX6 has integrated telemetry. After binding, go to the Telemetry menu in System Setup and use Auto-Config to detect connected sensors. You can then set alarms and view data on the main screen.

How do I use the Wireless Trainer function?

In System Setup > Trainer, select Wireless Trainer. Bind the slave transmitter to the master following the on-screen prompts. Use the trainer button to transfer control. Master Override allows the instructor to regain control by moving the sticks.

How can I assign a switch to a specific function?

In System Setup > Channel Assign, you can reassign receiver channels. Use Channel Input Configuration to map a switch to a channel. Alternatively, use Auto Switch Select: highlight the switch box, press the wheel, then toggle the desired switch.

What is the correct antenna position for best range?

For optimal performance, position the antenna vertically when flying. The antenna can be rotated and folded. Avoid pointing it directly at the model, as the signal is weakest from the tip.

What should I do if the receiver loses connection during flight?

If the link is lost, the receiver will activate failsafe (default: throttle to low, other channels hold last position). Land immediately after reconnection. Check battery voltage, antenna placement, and perform a range test before the next flight.

AR6610T TELEMETRY RECEIVER

(Not included with SPMR6775 transmitter only)

The Spektrum™ AR6610T receiver is a full range telemetry receiver featuring DSM® technology. It is compatible with all Spektrum™ aircraft radios that support DSM2® and DSMX® technology. Perform the failsafe setup for the AR6610T receiver through a compatible Spektrum Transmitter with Forward Programming. The Spektrum PC Programmer can be used for firmware updates.

The AR6610T receiver must be bound to your transmitter before it will operate. Binding is the process of teaching the receiver the specific code of the transmitter so it will only connect to that specific transmitter. When new out of the package, the AR6610T will automatically go into bind mode the first time it is powered on.

1. Connect the optional SRXL2 remote receiver (SPM9747) if desired and any telemetry sensors to the main receiver.
2. Push and hold the bind button on the receiver while turning the receiver on. Release the bind button once the orange LED starts to flash continuously, indicating that the receiver is in bind mode.

TIP: It is still possible to use a bind plug in the BIND port if desired. This can come in handy if the receiver needs to be mounted in a location that is difficult to access, in which case a servo extension may be used for binding. If using a bind plug, remove after binding to prevent the system from entering bind mode the next time the power is turned on.

1. Put your transmitter in bind mode.

2. The bind process is complete when the orange LED on the receiver is solid.

Failsafe

In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the receiver will enable the selected failsafe mode. Smart Safe + Hold Last is the default setting on the AR6610T. Preset Failsafe and SAFE Failsafe are only available through forward programming.

SmartSafe + Hold Last

If loss of signal occurs, SmartSafe™ technology moves the throttle channel to its preset failsafe position (low throttle) that was set during binding. All other channels will hold their last position. When the receiver detects the signal from the transmitter, normal aircraft operation resumes.

Preset Failsafe

With preset failsafe, you can set the specific control surface positions you want to use if the signal is lost. When the receiver detects the signal from the transmitter, normal aircraft operation resumes.

Only available through Forward Programming

Testing Failsafe

Secure the aircraft on the ground and remove the propeller. Test Failsafe settings by turning the transmitter RF output off and noting how the receiver drives the control surfaces.

Receiver Power Only

• If the receiver is turned when no transmitter signal is present, the throttle channel will not have a control signal to avoid operating or arming the electronic speed control.
• All other channels have no output until the receiver has linked to the transmitter.

Forward Programming

In your transmitter menu select Forward Programming -> Settings ->

- Select Failsafe -> Select each channel and assign it to Preset or Hold Last. When you select a different channel for Output, a new group of settings appears.

Capture Failsafe Postions ->

Hold the control sticks in the desired failsafe positions and select Apply. Channel selections must be individually set in Forward Programming to apply the preset positions or each channel will default to Hold Last. The value captured will be reflected in the position shown for each channel.

- Initiate Receiver Bind Mode

Gives you the option of putting the receiver into Bind Mode from this menu.

RECEIVER POWER SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Inadequate power systems that do not provide the necessary minimum voltage to the receiver during flight have become the number one cause of in-flight failures. Some of the power system components that affect the ability to properly deliver adequate power include:

• Receiver battery pack (number of cells, capacity, cell type, state of charge)
• The ESC's capability to deliver current to the receiver in electric aircraft
• The switch harness, battery leads, servo leads, regulators etc.

The AR6610T has a minimum operational voltage of 3.5 volts; test the power system per the guidelines below.

Recommended Power System Test Guidelines

Perform the following test by viewing the voltage in the telemetry display on the transmitter.

With the system on, load the control surfaces (apply pressure with your hand) while monitoring the voltage at the receiver. The voltage should remain above 4.8 volts, even when all servos are heavily loaded.

CAUTION: When charging Ni-MH batteries, make sure the battery fully charges. Ni-MH batteries charged with

peak detection fast chargers have a tendency to false peak (i.e. not fully charge), which could lead to a crash.

QuickConnect™ Technology with Brownout Detection (DSM2 Only)

The AR6610T features QuickConnect technology with Brownout Detection.

• Should an interruption of power occur (brownout), the system will reconnect immediately when power is restored.

• The LED on the receiver will flash slowly, indicating a power interruption (brownout) has occurred.

• Brownouts can be caused by an inadequate power supply (weak battery or regulator), a loose connector, bad switch, inadequate BEC when using an electronic speed controller, etc.

• Brownouts occur when the receiver voltage drops below 3.5 volts. This interrupts control, as the servos and receiver require a minimum of 3.5 volts to operate.

How QuickConnect Technology with Brownout Detection Works

• When the receiver voltage drops below 3.5 volts, the system drops out (ceases to operate).
• When power is restored, the receiver immediately attempts to reconnect to the last two frequencies it was connected to.
• If the two frequencies are present (the transmitter was left on), the system reconnects typically in about 4/100 of a second.

QuickConnect with Brownout Detection is designed to allow you to fly safely through most short duration power interruptions. However, you must correct the cause of these interruptions before your next flight to prevent a crash.

CAUTION: If a brownout occurs in flight, determine the cause of the brownout and correct it before attempting

to fly again.

MODEL TYPE PROGRAMMING GUIDE

Menu options show up on model type selection. These menu options vary between Model Types (Airplane, Helicopter, Sailplane and Multirotor), but are identical for all models in that type.

Wireless Trainer

Wireless Trainer works just like the Wired Trainer, without the wire. Select Wireless Trainer to bind a DSM2 or DSMX slave transmitter to the master transmitter. With this option, when the master presses the trainer button or switch, control is given to the currently bound slave transmitter. After binding, the slave transmitter will remain bound to the master transmitter until a different transmitter is bound to the master, or the slave transmitter is bound to another receiver or a wireless master transmitter. ModelMatch™ technology applies to the wireless trainer system; the master transmitter will be bound to the slave in the bound model used. Also, if the slave transmitter has ModelMatch technology, it will only be bound to the master transmitter in the selected model during binding.

Inhibit

In Inhibit, the wireless trainer function will be inhibited and will not function.

CAUTION: Select Inhibit in the Trainer menu when you aren't using the wireless trainer function. Failure to exhibit may result in loss of control of the aircraft.

Programmable Master

Programmable mode enables you to program the master transmitter to transfer any or all individual channels when you activate the trainer switch. This mode is ideal for beginners learning to control individual channels while the master transmitter maintains control of all other channels. The slave transmitter should be in Inhibit mode, if available. The Master and Slave transmitters MUST have the same programming.

Pilot Link Master

Pilot Link Master enables you to program the master transmitter to transfer any or all individual channels when you activate the trainer switch. Pilot Link Master is ideal for complex models, as the master transmitter maintains control of all secondary functions, such as flight modes, retracts, flaps and brakes.

Secondary functions can be individually assigned to the Slave transmitter as necessary. It is not necessary to have model programming in the slave transmitter.

NX6 Wireless Trainer Operation

1. Enter an unused model on the slave transmitter (computer transmitter only).
2. Bind the master transmitter to the model.
3. Make sure the master and slave transmitter battery packs are fully charged.
4. Make sure the slave transmitter is powered off.

Use positive or negative Swashplate mix values as needed for correct direction response of the helicopter.

Before making adjustments to the Swashplate mix, make sure the throttle/collective pitch input moves the entire swashplate up or down. If the servos are not moving in the same direction, reverse them as necessary in the Servo Setup menu option.

When the entire swashplate moves up or down:

1. Adjust the mix value for the Aileron and Elevator channels. If the servos do not move in the correct direction, change the direction of the mix—for example, a positive value instead of a negative value.
2. Adjust the mix value for the Pitch. If the swashplate does not move in the correct direction, change the direction of the value (negative instead of positive).

Always enable Expo when using a standard rotating-arm servo. The Expo delivers linear movement of the swashplate from a standard rotary servo. When Expo is inhibited, the arm on a rotary servo moves on a curved path with decreased swashplate movement at the extremes of the servo arm travel.

NOTICE: Do not enable Expo when using a linear servo.

Electronic E-Ring

This feature prevents over driving servos by limiting servo travel if the sum of your cyclic and pitch inputs exceeds servo limits.

Gyro

The Gyro menu option enables you to assign a gyro gain value to an independent switch or a Flight Mode. Assign the receiver channel connected to the gyro, then assign the switch for gyro options. You can also assign values to available switch positions (from 1 to 4 rates are available, depending on the switch assigned). Make sure the gyro operates correctly and compensates in the correct direction.

Tail Curve

The Tail Curve function mixes tail rotor input with the throttle/collective function to counter torque from the main rotor blades when using a non-heading hold (tail lock) gyro or when using rate mode on a gyro. See Pitch Curve for more information on programming curves.

Mixing

Cyclic to Throttle

Cyclic to Throttle mix prevents rpm loss when aileron, elevator or rudder inputs are given. This mix advances the throttle position with cyclic or rudder control to maintain rpm. At full throttle, Cyclic to Throttle mixing prevents the throttle from over driving the servo.

IMPORTANT: Do not use Cyclic to Throttle mix when using a governor.

To verify that the Cyclic to Throttle mix is working properly and in the correct direction, move the flight mode switch to one of the active positions. Move the programmed cyclic or rudder channel, noting the throttle position. The throttle position should increase.

If the throttle decreases, then the opposite value (positive vs. negative) is needed.

Swashplate

The Swashplate Mix typically corrects swashplate timing issues by mixing Aileron to Elevator and Elevator to Aileron. When adjusted correctly, the Swashplate causes the helicopter to roll and pitch accurately with minimal interaction.

SAIL (SAILPLANE)

Sailplane Model Type

NOTICE: Refer to your sailplane manual for recommended control throws.

CAUTION: Always do a Control Test of your model with the transmitter after programming to make sure your model responds as desired.

Sailplane Type

Use the Sailplane Type Screen to select wing and tail types to match your sailplane model. Diagrams and setup names show on the transmitter screen to show the available setups.

Refer to spektrumrc.com for more information about new NX6 Spektrum AirWare updates to support these options.

Wing

1 Servo
2 Aileron*
2 Aileron 1 Flap*
2 Aileron 2 Flap*

Tail

*Selection of multiple ailerons activates the Differential menu option. **"V-Tail A" and "V-Tail B" function as internal servo reversing. If V-Tail A does not work correctly with your aircraft, try V-Tail B.

Sailplane Image

In the Sailplane Type screen, select NEXT at the bottom right of the screen. This will access the Sailplane Image screen. Click once on the image and roll the scroll wheel left or right to for optional images.

Camber Preset

Camber Preset is only available when a 2 aileron servo wing type is selected in Sailplane Type. The Camber Preset function enables you to program the ailerons, flaps, wing tips and elevator for a specific position in each Flight Mode.

If flight modes are not active, only one preset position is available and it is always active.

The Camber Preset Speed enables the control surfaces to transition over a period of time, up to 30 seconds, when you change flight modes.

Move the flight mode switch to the desired position to change the Camber Preset values.

Camber System

Camber System is only available when 2 aileron wing type is selected in Sailplane Type. The Camber System allows in-flight camber adjustment and is also used as the braking system, often referred to as Crow or Butterfly. The Camber System enables you to assign the Camber System to a different switch in each flight mode.

SAIL (SAILPLANE)

SAIL Mixing

For each of these mixes, you can program each flight mode with different mix values or at 0% if no mix is desired for that specific flight mode. Programming values include independent control of the direction and amount a slave surface moves in relationship to the master surface.

Aileron to Rudder

The Aileron to Rudder mix is commonly used for coordinated turns. When active, as aileron is applied the rudder moves in the same direction as the turn (right aileron input results in right rudder output). If you assign the flight mode to a switch, a Sub Switch option allows you to assign an additional switch to activate up to 3 Aileron to Rudder mixes for that flight mode.

Aileron to Flap

The Aileron to Flap mix allows the entire trailing edge of the wing (aileron and flap) to operate as ailerons. When active, as aileron is applied the flaps also move. Always program the flaps to move in the same direction as the turn (so that right aileron is equivalent to flaps moving as right ailerons).

Elevator to Flap

Elevator to Flap mix creates additional lift, allowing a tighter turn. The entire trailing edge of the wing (aileron and flap) operates as flaps (camber increase) when you apply elevator. An offset is provided, which is typically used for Snap Flaps. With Snap Flap, no Elevator to Flap mix occurs until the offset value is reached. Typically, this offset is at 70% up elevator so that beyond 70% the down flap mix comes in, providing additional lift for more aggressive turning (for tight thermals or racing turns).

Flap to Elevator

Flap to Elevator mix prevents pitch up tendency that occurs when you apply Crow or Butterfly. This mix is typically used only with the Camber System. The Flap to Elevator mix operates as a curve so that the elevator moves down the most during the first 20% of flap deployment, decreases over the next 40%, then remains the same from 60 to 100% of flap travel.

For sailplanes with ailerons/tips/flaps, make sure an appropriate Sailplane Type is selected so that tips appear in the transmitter as RAIL and LAIL. Decrease or increase travel on the tip ailerons by creating an AIL > RAIL mix.

V-Tail Differential

The V-Tail Differential screen enables you to increase or decrease the amount of differential between control surface throws.

Positive Differential values decrease the amount of "down" travel without affecting the "up" travel on the opposite control surface.

Negative Differential values decrease the amount of "up" travel without affecting the amount of "down" travel on the opposite control surface.

The V-Tail Differential menu option only appears when V-Tail A or V-Tail B is active in Aircraft Type.

To adjust the V-Tail Differential:

1. Scroll to Switch and press the scroll wheel. Scroll right to select On (Differential is always on) or assign the differential to a switch position.
2. Press the scroll wheel a second time to save the selection.
3. Scroll to Diff: and press the scroll wheel once to change the value.
4. Press the scroll wheel again to save the selection.

MULTI (MULTIROTOR)

Multirotor Model Type

NOTICE: Refer to your multirotor manual for programming recommendations.

CAUTION: Always do a Control Test of your model with the transmitter after programming to make sure your model responds as desired.

The Aircraft Options menu allows you to select a camera gimbal axis. Select None, 1-Axis, 2-Axis or 3-Axis from the Camera Options box.

The model icon can be changed by selecting the icon and scrolling left or right to select.

Multirotor Image

In the Aircraft Options screen, roll to the image. Click once on the image and roll the roller left or right for optional images.

Aircraft Options

F-Mode Setup

By default switch B is assigned 3 Flight Modes. You can assign up to five flight modes using any combination of up to two switches.

Channel Assign

Scroll and Select Channel to assign channel inputs and outputs for each Flight Mode. Each channel can be assigned any switch on the transmitter including but not limited to trim switches, gimbals and the Clear/Back buttons.

Example: Assign Flight Mode 1 to be your primary flight mode where your gimbals control primary flight axis. Switching to Flight Mode 2, you can have the gimbals control the camera axis and the trim buttons control primary flight axis.

Tip: You can also access the Channel Assign from the Channel Assign Menu in System Setup.

F Mode Setup

Flight Mode Switch:Switch B

Enabled Flight Modes: 3 Channel: Inhibit Mode: 1 FLIGHT MODE 1 100%

Trim Setup

By default Trims are setup for F Mode, and the trim steps are defaulted to zero for multirotors. If you want to utilize trim in multirotor mode, increase the trim step values above zero.

F Mode trim type enables you to save trim values for individual flight modes if you find, for example, the aircraft requires Roll trim in Flight Mode 1 but not in Flight Mode 2.

MULTI (MULTIROTOR)

D/R and Exponential

Dual Rates and Exponential are available on the PIT, ROL and YAW channels.

To adjust the Dual Rate and Exponential:

1. Scroll to the channel and press the scroll wheel once. Scroll left or right to select the channel you wish to change and press the scroll wheel again to save the selection.
2. Scroll to Switch and press the scroll wheel to select. Move the switch you want to assign to D/R.
3. Scroll to dual rate and press the scroll wheel. Scroll left or right to change the value and press the scroll wheel again to save the selection.

Exponential affects control response sensitivity around center but has no affect on overall travel. Positive exponential decreases the sensitivity around the center of gimbal movement.

Motor Cut

The Motor Cut menu option enables you to assign a switch position to stop the motor. Motor Cut activates regardless of Flight Mode.

When you activate Motor Cut, the ALT channel moves to the pre-programmed position (normally Off).

You may need to use a negative value to move the ALT channel to the off position.

CAUTION: Always test the model after making adjustments to make sure the model responds to

controls as desired.

Motor Curve

You can use the Motor Curve menu option to optimize the throttle response. A maximum of 7 points are available on the throttle curve.

To add points to a Motor Curve:

1. Move the throttle stick to the position where you wish to add the new point.
2. Scroll to Add Pt. and press the scroll wheel to add the point.

To remove points from a Motor Curve:

1. Move the motor stick until the cursor is near the point you wish to remove.
2. Scroll to Remove Pt. and press the scroll wheel once to remove the point.

If you program multiple throttle curves and you wish to edit one of the curves, that curve must be active in the Motor Curve screen before you can make any changes.

PHYSICAL TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENTS

The NX6 has all the physical transmitter adjustments located around the gimbal face of each gimbal. This arrangement allows for quick and easy adjustments with out taking the back cover off or removing any plugs to access adjustment screws.

Available adjustments:

Change the Throttle Ratchet

Change the Throttle Tension

Adjust Stick Tension

Two identical circular mechanical components with internal structural details, no text or symbols visible.

Adjust Stick Tension

Turn the screws clockwise a small amount using a small Phillips screwdriver to tighten the stick tension and counter clockwise to loosen.

NOTICE: Always do a test of stick tension while turning these screws to ensure stick tension is not too loose or too tight. Tightening a screw too much can damage a spring. Loosening a screw too much can let a spring fall off and cause short-circuit in the transmitter.

Control Stick Length Adjustment

1. Using a 2mm Allen wrench, turn the setscrew in the stick counterclockwise to loosen it.
2. Make the stick shorter by turning it clockwise or longer by turning it counterclockwise.
3. After adjustment of stick length, tighten the setscrew.

Mechanical component diagram showing a lever mechanism with arrows indicating motion (no text or symbols)

Gimbal Travel Limit

Each gimbal has a switch at the top and bottom that can limit the travel on that stick's vertical movement.

Adjusting the gimbal travel limits

1. Remove the covers
2. Move the switches toward the center of the transmitter to use the full travel available.
   Move the switch to the outside of the case to reduce travel.

MODE CONVERSION

Ratcheted Throttle – Smooth Throttle Adjustment

Ratchet:

1. Locate the throttle strap adjustment screws on both gimbals. The ratchet set screw engages a serrated section on the gimbal for a ratcheted throttle, while the tension set screw engages a strap for smooth tension on the gimbal.
2. To engage the throttle ratchet turn the ratchet set screw clockwise until the ratchet engages.
3. To disengage the throttle ratchet turn the screw counter clockwise until the gimbal moves freely.

Smooth Tension:

1. To engage the throttle tension, turn the tension set screw clockwise until the Tension engages.
2. To disengage the throttle Tension turn the screw counter clockwise until the gimbal moves freely.

You can select transmitter modes 1, 2, 3 or 4 for the NX6. Converting the mode requires both a programming and a mechanical change.

Programming Conversion:

1. Change the mode within the System Setup -> System Settings.
2. Calibrate the sticks within the System Settings menu.

Mechanical Conversion:

Mechanical conversion is required to change between Modes 1 and 2 or between Modes 3 and 4. The mechanical conversion consists of the following steps:

1. Change the Throttle Ratchet/throttle tension; Remove the tension on the side the was throttle, and apply the tension on the side that will be throttle.

2. Adjust the Elevator Centering Screw When changing between Modes 1 and 2, or between Modes 3 and 4, you must adjust the elevator centering screw.

3. Hold the Elevator or Throttle stick in the full up or full down position when you are adjusting the elevator centering screw. Holding the gimbal stick reduces the load on the elevator centering mechanism and makes it easier to adjust the centering screw.

4. Use a Phillips screwdriver to adjust the elevator centering screw. Tightening the screw will engage the centering spring.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the Mode change screws too far or you will have to open the case to put it back together.

Antenna Position

We recommend setting up your antenna to be positioned vertical when you are in your most comfortable position for flying. The antenna may also be folded for storage.
