IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT SERVO OPERATING MODE VALUES: If you're using Analog servos in your Model, DO NOT use SHR or SSR Servo Operating Mode values for those channels. Use the NOR (Normal) Servo Operating Mode with Analog servos. Using SHR or SSR Servo Operating Mode values with Analog servos can result in poor performance or even damage to the servos or the receiver! Not all ESCs are compatible with SHR or SSR Servo Operating Modes. If your ESC does not operate correctly, change the Servo Operating Mode to NOR (Normal) for that channel (or channels). SHR and SSR Servo Operating Modes should only be used with Digital servos. While the SHR Servo Operating Mode can be used with any brand of Digital servo, the SSR Servo Operating Mode should ONLY be used with Airtronics SRG Digital servos. Binding the Transmitter and Receiver: To Bind the transmitter and receiver, please see the Transmitter and Receiver Binding section on page 23. Prior to Binding the transmitter and receiver, make sure to choose the desired Modulation Type and Safety Link Number. SERVO MENU {SERVO MONITOR} SYSTEM The Servo Monitor displays the output levels of the four different channels in bar graph form, allowing you to monitor servo operation in a virtual manner. This is helpful to see servo movement when the controls are moved, and it allows you to visualize what is occurring with servo movements when you apply different Mixing values, exponential, etc. When used in conjunction with the DISPLAY key, the Servo Monitor allows you to see servo movement virtually and make programming changes without the transmitter actually transmitting a signal. The channel names displayed will vary based on the Car Type Selected in the TYPE menu.

AUX TYPE MENU {AUXILIARY CHANNEL OPERATING MODE} SYSTEM The Auxiliary Type function allows you choose the Operating Mode for Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2, making it possible to change the way these two Auxiliary channels function. This section details how to change the Operating Mode of the two Auxiliary channels. For details about programming and using each of the Auxiliary functions, see the POINT AUX 1 Menu section on pages 64 ~ 65, the POINT AUX 2 Menu section on pages 65 ~ 66 or the CODEAX1 and CODEAX2 Menu section on page 93. 41

M12S 2.4GHZ FH4T RADIO CONTROL SYSTEM USER'S GUIDE AUX TYPE MENU {AUXILIARY CHANNEL OPERATING MODE} SYSTEM The Operating Mode of Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2 can be changed to suit your specific requirements. The following Operating Modes are available: NOR - When Selected, the Auxiliary channel(s) operate as Normal proportional linear channels, like the Throttle or Steering channels. POINT - When Selected, up to six Point positions can be programmed along the entire length of servo travel. You are then able to cycle back and forth through those Point positions. This option is ideal if your Model requires a three or more position switch to operate a feature. This mode is not proportional. It's a 'Stepping' mode. CODE - This option is for use with future connected products, such as an ESC, whose Programming Parameters can be changed directly via the transmitter. For example, you might be able to change the connected ESC's Driving Modes directly using the Auxiliary Dial to suit different conditions while you're driving. Depending on the Car Type Selected in TYPE menu, Auxiliary 2 options may not be available. This is normal. Changing the Auxiliary Channel Operating Mode: 1) From within the SYSTEM menu, scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the AUX TYPE menu. 2) Press the ENTER key to open the AUX TYPE menu. AUX1 > NOR will be highlighted. 3) Scroll UP or DOWN to choose which Auxiliary Channel you want to change the Operating Mode for, either AUX1 or AUX2. 4) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired Auxiliary 1 or Auxiliary 2 Operating Mode.

Changing the Number of Points Value: After changing the Auxiliary 1 or Auxiliary 2 Operating Mode to POINT, you are able to change the number of points you want the servo to travel through. For example, if you want to be able to cycle your servo from 0 to 20 to 40 to 60 degrees and back again, choose POINT > 4. When AUX1 and AUX2 values are set to NOR or CODE, POINT options cannot be programmed. 1) After choosing the POINT option, scroll UP or DOWN to the desired POINT value, either AUX1 POINT or AUX2 POINT. 2) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired number of Point positions to program. POINT setting range is 2 to 6. The default setting is 2. IMPORTANT: When set to POINT, please observe the following: We recommend using either the Auxiliary Dial or one of the Trim Switches to operate the Auxiliary channel. The Auxiliary Lever is not suitable for use in this situation. In addition, the Step value for the Auxiliary Dial and/or Trim Switch should be set to 1, otherwise the transmitter won't cycle properly through the programmed Points. 42

T M12S 2.4GHZ FH4T RADIO CONTROL SYSTEM USER'S GUIDE TRIM TYPE MENU {SERVO TRIM TYPE} SYSTEM The Trim Type function allows you choose the way servo Trim and servo End Point Adjustments interact with each other. When you apply Trim to a servo, the Neutral Point of the servo shifts toward the High Side or the Low Side. When you do this, the servo travels less in one direction and more in the other direction because the servo End Points are stationary. In order to balance the servo travel, you would need to manually readjust the servo End Points. Using the Trim Type function allows you to make the servo End Points shift toward the High Side or the Low Side when you apply Trim. This maintains balanced servo travel without the need to manually readjust the servo End Points. The Trim Type function does not effect servo Sub-Trim. It only effects servo Trim that's input using the Trim Switches, Auxiliary Dial or Auxiliary Lever. Servo Sub-Trim, which is different, always uses Parallel Trim. Two Trim Types are available: CENTER - When Selected, servo End Points are stationary. In order to balance servo travel, you would need to manually readjust the servo End Points, if desired. PARALLEL - When Selected, servo End Points shift toward the High Side or the Low Side automatically when you apply Trim. This maintains balanced servo travel without the need to manually readjust the servo End Points. Changing the Trim Type: 1) From within the SYSTEM menu, scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the TRIM TYPE menu. 2) Press the ENTER key to open the TRIM TYPE menu. ST > CENT will be highlighted. 3) Scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the desired channel you would like to change the Trim Type value for. Choose from either ST (Steering), TH (Throttle), AUX1 (Auxiliary 1) or AUX2 (Auxiliary 2). 4) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired Trim Type value for that channel. 5) Press the ENTER key, then repeat steps 3 and 4 to change the Trim Type value for any other desired channels. TRIM TYPE setting range is CENT and PARA. The default setting for all channels is CENT. TH TYPE MENU {THROTTLE BIAS RATIO} SYSTEM The Throttle Type function allows you to change the ratio between Throttle High Side servo travel and Throttle Brake Side servo travel. In the default configuration, the Throttle Type is set to F70:B30. This Throttle Type shifts the Throttle Neutral Point toward the Brake Side, resulting in more servo travel toward the High Side and less servo travel toward the Brake Side. Some users may prefer the ratio between Throttle High Side servo travel and Throttle Brake Side servo travel to be balanced (F50:B50) so that servo travel is equal. The F70:B30 Throttle Type is most common for general use and racing, while the F50:B50 Throttle Type is most common for Rock Crawling. 43

M12S 2.4GHZ FH4T RADIO CONTROL SYSTEM USER'S GUIDE TH TYPE MENU {THROTTLE BIAS RATIO} SYSTEM Two Throttle Types are available: F70:B30 - When Selected, the Throttle Neutral Point is shifted toward the Brake Side which provides more High Side servo travel and less Brake Side servo travel. This is most common for general use and racing. F50:B50 - When Selected, the Throttle Neutral Point is centered, which provides the same amount of High Side and Brake Side servo travel. This is most common for Rock Crawling. Changing the Throttle Type: 1) From within the SYSTEM menu, scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the TH TYPE menu. 2) Press the ENTER key to open the TH TYPE menu. TH TYPE > F7:B3 will be highlighted. 3) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired Throttle Type value. TH TYPE setting range is F7:B3 and F5:B5.

Scroll UP or DOWN to highlight YES, then press the ENTER key. If you want to go back and change the Throttle Type or if you don't want to change the Throttle Type for any reason, choose NO or press the BACK key. VR ADJUST MENU {VARIABLE RATE ADJUSTMENT} SYSTEM The Variable Rate Adjustment function allows you to calibrate the operation of the Steering Wheel, Throttle Trigger and Auxiliary Lever End Points and Neutral positions. Over time, it's possible that the End Points and/or Neutral positions of these controls may change slightly or you may purposely limit the travel of the Steering Wheel to suit the best feel of the Steering Wheel and your driving style. Being able to calibrate these controls ensures precise operation at all times and in all conditions. In addition to being able to store custom Variable Rate Adjustment values, you are also able to reset the Variable Rate Adjustment values back to the Factory Default values. We recommend using the Variable Rate Adjustment function as part of a periodic maintenance schedule or after adjusting the Steering Wheel travel as described in the Steering Wheel Travel Adjustment section on page 12. IMPORTANT: After using the Variable Rate Adjustment function, you should double-check the End Point Adjustments of each saved Model. If the End Points have moved, they will need to be readjusted using the End Point Adjustment function. 44

T M12S 2.4GHZ FH4T RADIO CONTROL SYSTEM USER'S GUIDE VR ADJUST MENU {VARIABLE RATE ADJUSTMENT} SYSTEM The steps required to calibrate the operation of the Steering Wheel, Throttle Trigger and Auxiliary Lever are the same. The example shown in this section details calibrating the Steering Wheel. Two Variable Rate Adjustment Options are available: FACTORY - When Selected, control End Points and Neutral positions are set to the original Factory Default calibration values. This option should be used if there is a problem with the User calibration values or you want to restore the Factory Default calibration values. USER - When Selected, the user manually calibrates the control End Points and Neutral positions.
