STICK MECHANISM AND ITS ADJUSTMENT

•The new gimbal is open. Thisone has been used only for themost expensive radio controls. Italso has the built-in tension ad-justment mechanism on opengimbal for the first time. You canadjust tension of spring for yourbest stick feeling.

•CP variable resistor improved theneutral characteristics and resolu-tion tremendously.

•All molded parts made of high-grade polycarbonate that virtuallyeliminates the effects of tempera-ture and humidity.

•Turn with a Phillipsscrewdriver.

•When the core rises,the spring tensionincreases.

•Connect the servos and switches firmly asshown in Fig. 20. Then extend the transmitterand receiver antennas fully.•Set the transmitter power switch to ON. thenset the receiver power switch to ON. The servosstop near the neutral position. Operate thetransmitter sticks and check if the correspond-ing servos faithfully follow operation of thesticks.•After setting the pushrods at the servo horns,check that the direction of operation of thetransmitter sticks and the direction of opera-tion of the rudders are the same.•Operate each servo horn over its entire operat-ing range and check if the pushrod binds, or istoo loose. Applying unreasonable force to theservo horn will adversely affect the servo andquickly drain the batteries. Always make theoperating width of each rudder somewhat largerthan the full stroke (including trim) of theservo horn. Adjust the servo horns so thatoperate smoothly even when the trim lever andstick lever are operated simultaneouly in thesame direction.•Be alert for noise.If engine vibration causes metal parts to touch,noise will be produced and the receiver andservos may operate incorrectly. We recommendthe use of noiseless parts.•When installing the switch, cut a rectangularhole somewhat larger than the full stroke of the

switch and install the switch so it moves smo-othly from ON to OFF. When the switch ismounted inside the fuselage and is turned ON-OFF with wire, install the switch mount asdescribed above. Install the switch where it willnot come into direct contact with engine oil,dust, etc.•Even though the receiver antenna is long. donot cut or bundle it.•The servos, Ni-Cad battery,switches,extensioncords, and crystals of FP-7FGH are the sameas those of the high-quality J Series. The crystalsare extremely precise and are identified bycolor (red and green). Use Tx and Rx crystalsof the same color.•A spare horn is supplied. Use it as needed.•Wrap the receiver in sponge rubber. Place thereceiver in a plastic bag and wrap a rubber bandaround the open end of the bag to waterproofand dustproof the receiver. Do the same withthe receiver/servo battery.•Use the rubber bands wrapped around thereceiver to hold the servo and switch leads.•After mounting is complete, recheck eachpart, then make the transmitter antenna asshort as possible, extend the receiver antennafully, and operate the set from a distance of20m to 30m. The movement of each rudder(servo) should faithfully follow the operationof each stick of the transmitter.

SPLINED HORNThis horn permits shifting of theservo neutral position at the servohorn. Setting and shifting theneutral positiona) Angle divisions

1) The splined horn has 25 seg-ments. The amount of change persegment is;2) The minimum adjustable angleis determined by the number ofarms or number of the holes. Forfour arms,the minimum adjustableangle is:

Baseline A

b) Effect

Fig. 23

To shift the holes center line tothe right (clockwise) relative tobaseline A, shift arm 2 to the po-sition of arm 1 and set it to theposition closest to baseline A.[Example] For a four arm horn,the angular shift per segment is14.4°. The shift to the right is 90°- (14.4 x 6 ) =3.6°To shift by the same angle in theopposite direction, use the oppo-site arm number.

Fig. 24

For a six arm horn, turn the armcounterclockwise and set arm 2to the position of arm 1. The ad-justable angle is 60° - (14.4 x 4)=2.4°.Arm 3 shift 4.8° to the right, arm6 shifts 2.4° to the left,and arm 4shifts 7.2° to the right and left.

Futaba Digital Proportional Frequencies (FOR U.S.A.)•The frequency of Futaba digital proportional

sets can be changed among bands (1)~(6) onthe 27MHz band only.

•However, a 27MHz band set cannot be changedto 72MHz band, and vice versa.

•Therefore, always attach the correct frequencyflag to the end of the transmitter antenna.Each frequency band has its own designatedcolor, as stated above. The frequency flag isintended for identification purposes.

•Also change the frequency flag when frequencyis 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 onthe 72-75MHz bands in the U.S.A.
