installation by allowing the user to electronically set the proper response direction for each servo.
Throw: When speaking of a control surface (such as an elevator or aileron), the
throw is the distance that the surface moves. Control surface throw is usually
measured at the trailing edge (back) of the control surface and is expressed
in inches or millimeters. The model in the diagram has 1/2” (13mm) of up
elevator throw. Please note that throw might also refer to the distance that a
servo arm, wheel, etc. travels.
Dual Rate (D/R): On the 6J 2.4GHz the dual rate switch allows you to instantly

End Point Adjustments (EPA): Sets the overall, maximum distance that the servo rotates in either direction.
Exponential (EXPO): Normally, servos respond proportionally to control stick input from the transmitter.
That is, if the stick is moved halfway, the corresponding servo will also move halfway. However, with
exponential, the servo can be made to move more, or less, than the relative stick movement. Generally
speaking, exponential is used to lessen, or lower, the servo movement. Exponential is commonly used to

Control response is milder around half-stick, but becomes increasing stronger as stick travel approaches
100%. Exponential is great for aerobatics and trouble situations.
Please note it is important to remember that dual rates adjust the amount of servo travel whereas the
exponential adjustments determine where most of the travel will occur.
Mixing: Two (or more) servos may be made to operate together either by mechanically joining their leads

Ratchet plate
for helicopter
Generally speaking, helicopter pilots prefer a smooth operation of
the throttle stick rather than the ratcheting operation commonly
used by fixed wing pilots. The procedure below will allow
modelers to change from this ratcheting operation to the smoother
throttle stick operation.
1) Open the battery cover on the back of the transmitter and remove
the transmitter battery, or batteries.
2) Unplug the battery connection on the left side of the battery
case.
3) Remove the four transmitter rear case screws and remove the
rear case.
4) Change the ratchet plate on the gimbal section to the smooth
ratchet plate for helicopter use.

Receiver Installation:
In order to obtain the best possible performance from your 2.4GHz aircraft receiver, we have developed the
following guidelines and suggestions.
Antenna
*Must be kept as straight as possible.
Coaxial cable
The R2006GS has two antennas. In order to
maximize signal reception and promote safe
modeling Futaba has adopted a diversity antenna
system. This allows the receiver to obtain RF

To obtain the best results from the diversity function, please refer to the following instructions:
The two antennas must be kept as straight as possible. Failure to
do so might result in reduced operational range of the model.
Ideally, the two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each
other. However, the most critical aspect is to keep the antennas
away from each other as much as possible.
Larger models can have large metal objects that can attenuate the
RF signal. In this case the antennas should be placed at both sides of the model. Then the best RF signal

The antennas should be kept away from conductive materials, such as metal and carbon by at least half-
inch. The coaxial part of the antennas does not need to follow these guidelines, but do not bend in a small
radius.

The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other.
The main purpose of the photo demonstrates how the antenna should be placed.
The receiver contains precision electronic parts. It is the most delicate radio component on-board the model
and should be protected from temperature and other extreme conditions.
Allow air to circulate around the receiver. One tip is to utilize small foam blocks like standoffs to ensure
that there is an air channel around the receiver.

If appropriate, waterproof the receiver by placing it in a plastic bag and closing the open end with a rubber
band before wrapping it in foam. If moisture enters the receiver, intermittent operation or a failure may
result. Wrapping the receiver in a plastic bag also protects it from fuel and exhaust residue which, in some
models, can work its way into the fuselage.
Powering the Receiver-
It is imperative to properly power the receiver and onboard equipment. The receiver battery, or onboard
power supply should be of the design which will enable all servos and other equipment to maintain
functionality throughout the flight without any inadvertent interruptions in the supply of power to the
necessary equipment.

recommendation. As such, we would suggest that modelers refer to the suggestions of modelers with similar

preference.
AA Alkaline batteries are available at any local hobby shop, grocery store, etc. A NiCd/NiMH battery pack
will need to be purchased from a hobby shop.
Charging NiCd/NiMH batteries
As noted above, the T6J transmitter will function with four dry cell batteries, however, some modelers will
opt to purchase a NiCd/NiMH battery pack and charger for use with this transmitter.

to the charge jack in the right side of the transmitter case. The receiver charging cord may be connected to
the batteries two different ways: The charge cord may be connected directly to the battery pack, or to the
vacant charge connector (black) coming from the on/off switch in the model. Charging through the switch
is preferred as there will be no need to disconnect the battery.
2) Plug the A/C wall charger into a wall outlet. Note: If the wall outlet can be turned off by a switch in the

packs with some voltage remaining on the cells (refer to battery supplier).
NiMH cells have a self-discharge rate of approximately 20-25% (compared to 15% for NiCd batteries). It is
important to recharge NiMH batteries immediately prior to use.
Never connect the battery in reverse. Reverse connection will cause the battery to overheat or will damage
the inside of the charger.
Do not add an additional charge after charging.
Never charge with a current exceeding the nominal capacity (lC) of the rechargeable battery.
If a battery is charged with a current exceeding 1C, the battery will overheat and deteriorate.
Do not connect two battery packs or more to one output terminal.
Avoid extremely cold and hot places and the direct sunlight when you charge batteries.
It is recommended to perform charging within the 10 ~ 30°C (50-85°F) range. Otherwise, it may cause
abnormal charging and overheat.

Battery F/S Fail Safe (S-FHSS Mode only)
Your system provides a safety function called battery fail safe. The battery fail safe function is only
applicable to the T6J when the transmitter is in the S-FHSS mode setting and the model utilizes an applicable
S-FHSS receiver. The R2006GS receiver that accompanied this transmitter is an S-FHSS compatible
receiver. If the transmitter mode is set to FHSS, the battery fail safe will not appear in the options.
When the airborne battery voltage drops below approximately 3.8V, the battery failsafe function moves the

Dual Rates/Exponential Settings-
Dual Rates/Exponential Settings vary slightly between the airplane (ACRO) mode and the helicopter (HELI)
mode. As such, the information pertaining to these functions will be separated into ACRO and HELI
sections below. Please adhere to the section that pertains to the model for which you are programming the
T6J transmitter.

affecting the overall travel of the servo(s). Thus, decreasing the percentage value for a given servo will
reduce the travel amount of the channel respectively.
For example, if the elevator of the aircraft travels 1/2” at the high rate and maximum stick input, and a value
of 50% is input for the low rate, when the switch is moved to the low rate position, the servo moves exactly
half as far per stick position. Following this example, if the elevator control input is all the way up, the
maximum travel is now 1/4”
The T6J transmitter offers dual rates on the aileron, elevator and rudder channels. The dual rates are
assignable to any of the switches on the transmitter and all are simultaneously activated by the dual rate
switch selected.
The amount of travel decrease for each control may be set between 0% and 140% of the values set for the
end points (explained in End Point Adjustment on page 33).
Note: It is possible to set a dual rate value to zero, thus causing no response from that channel when the dual
rates are activated. If the dual rates are inadvertently set to zero, a crash could result.

The T6J transmitter defaults to the normal wing type (non-selectable). If your model uses a single servo to
control the ailerons, there is nothing more to do. If, however, you are using separate servos to control each
aileron individually, please activate the Flaperon mixing. Information on how to do so is contained in the

V-tail mixing (V-TL)- (ACRO only)
Intended for V-tail aircraft (such as a Beechcraft Bonanza), V-tail
mixing allows the ruddervators to operate both as rudders and
elevators. The servos work together as an elevator; yet will also
work in opposition to one another to function as a rudder.
The same as the other mixes, V-tail mixing requires that each
ruddervator be operated by a separate servo.

Swashplate type selection and Swash AFR (SWSH) - (HELI only)
The Swashplate type selection is utilized to select the swashplate type that matches the respective helicopter
for which you are programming the transmitter. The T6J transmitter offers four Swashplate type selections to
choose from: H-1, HE3, H-3 and HR3.
Prior to explaining the differences in the selections available to you, it is important to have a basic

Cyclic Collective Pitch Mixing, or CCPM is both simpler and more responsive than the mechanical CCPM.
Traditional CCPM systems use three servos working in unison to control the swash. All three servos move
regardless of the control input.
H-1 Type:
This is the non-CCPM Swashplate type selection. For many years this was the
preferred swashplate type, however, CCPM has gained in popularity recently. In
this swashplate type, A single servo is used for each axis: aileron, elevator (cyclic
pitch), and collective pitch, whereas a CCPM helicopter uses a combination of servos
working together to achieve the 3 axes of motion.
HE3 Type:
CCPM. This selection is most commonly used for electric
helicopters. With aileron input, the aileron and pitch
servos tilt the swashplate left and right; with elevator input,
the servos tilt the swashplate fore and aft; with pitch input,
all three servos raise the swashplate up and down. Pushrods positioned as shown.
H-3 Type:
This swashplate type is designated as a 140 degree CCPM.
Fundamentally, the servo operations of H-3 type are almost
that same as HR3 type. However, the servo arrangement
for elevator operation differs. 140 degree CCPM offers
smoother operation of the combined servos and an equal
cyclic rate all around. On a 120 degree setup, the left/right
cyclic is slightly faster than the fore/aft cyclic.
HR3 Type:
This is a 120 degree CCPM. With Aileron input, the
aileron and pitch servos tilt the swashplate left and right;
with Elevator input, the three servos tilt the swashplate
fore and aft; with Pitch input, all three servos raise the
swashplate up and down.

Swashplate AFR (Adjustable Function Rate) - (HELI only)
If any of the three CCPM Swashplate types (H3, HE3, or HR3) have been selected, the Swashplate AFR
(adjustable function rate) settings will automatically be activated as well. It is possible to individually
modify the values for the aileron, elevator and pitch servos to fine-tune the amount of travel and travel
direction of the swashplate inputs.
Prior to adjusting the swashplate AFR, it is important to properly set the linkage and servo horns for the

geometry of these settings is imperative to a smooth, successful and correctly set-up CCPM helicopter.
Collective and pitch directions, as well as overall throw (all three servos working together) are controlled by
the Swash AFR. To begin, set up it is recommended that the pitch curve be set in a straight line (0, 25, 50, 75
and 100), this will be set to the correct curves as shown in the Pitch Curve section on page

Check all three servos to move in the same direction by the throttle stick operation. At this point, it doesn't
worry even if the swashplate works in the reverse direction for the stick operation. If one of these servos
operate oppositely for other servos, you will need to change the travel direction of the servo in the servo
reversing (REVR) menu. Please refer to page
?? for information on how to do so.
Next, check the cyclic directions (aileron and elevator) and the collective (pitch) direction. If the swashplate
is working in the reverse direction for each stick operation, it will be necessary to change the respective
swashplate AFR value to -50%.
With everything functioning in the proper direction it is time to adjust the overall throw for each function.
Typically you will use a pitch gauge to assist in the adjustment of the pitch AFR to achieve the amount of

Note: When the instructor initially depresses the trainer switch on his transmitter, there will be approximately
a one (1) second delay before the student takes control. In most situations this momentary delay will go
unnoticed.
TIMER
The T6J offers three timers: count up, count down and model. The count up (stopwatch) and count down
timer are programmable and feature an audible alarm when the programmed time limits have been reached.
The model timer, as the name suggests, is used to track time of the model.
Countdown times sound one short beep each second during the last 10 (ten) seconds of the countdown
function and one long tone when at the programmed time. The timer will then display a minus (-) sign and
continue tracking the time.
The count up timer will also beep one short beep each second for the last ten (10) seconds and then one long
tone at the programmed time. Additionally, the count up timer will continue counting upwards, there will not
be a minus (-) sign, however.
As noted above, the model timer is used to track the time of the model. This is a count up timer and starts
when the respective model memory is selected and the T6J is powered up.
68
The countdown and count up timers may be assigned to switches A, B or D (either up or down position),
always ON or activated by the throttle stick movement. The countdown and count up timers may be

It is also important to note that the timers are stored independently with each model, meaning that when
switching between models, the timer associated with the model is brought up automatically.
The Model (MDL) timer is the default setting for the timer function. It is automatically activated and there

Conventional Gear
The landing gear arrangement where the airplane has a main gear and a tailwheel.
Coreless motor
In a conventional servo, the motor has a steel core armature wrapped in wire that spins inside the magnets.
In a coreless design, the armature uses a thin wire mesh that forms a cup that spins around the outside of the
magnet eliminating the heavy steel core. A coreless motor does not have magnets as standard servo motors
do, so they have a smoother, more constant, and stronger action. Regular servo motors have either 3 or 5
magnets (poles) which when the armature is between these, the servo motor is at its weakest.

Grease-in
A very smooth, gentle landing without a hint of a bounce.
Gyro
A gyro is an electro-mechanical, or electronic device which aids in the control of an R/C model.
The gyro senses motion in one axis, and directs the servo to counter that motion. The sensor, which
can be a mechanical gyroscope, or an electronic piezo crystal, detects unwanted movement. The
gyro then instructs the servo to counter for that motion. At all times, the radio commands will
override the gyro command. The level of control the gyro had is adjusted by the GAIN setting.

Piezo Gyro: uses a piezo crystal to sense movement.
Non-Heading-hold vs. heading hold: A standard (nonHH) gyro senses movement and makes an effort
to counter that movement as long as it feels it. Therefore, it is NOT going to return the model to the
exact heading prior to the movement. Heading Hold (or AVCS) gyros will lock the model into one
position, and accurately correct for movement by sensing rate of change and returning at that same rate.
SMM technology: utilizes a microchip to sense movement and provide all readings. Experiences minimal

mechanical gyros.
Gyro sensitivity
Used to create stick priority or activate each rate of a dual rate gyro based on stick position. This
preprogrammed mix decreases the gain of the gyro directly proportional to the amount of rudder stick given
(or steps the gyro down from high to low rate on dual rate gyros.)
Heading Hold
This describes a type of Gyro which senses rotation, and maintains direction. This is accomplished by
sensing the rate of motion, and the time of motion, then compensating for the distance. While this sounds
complicated, the effect is that if you have the model dialed in, and point the nose north, with a heading hold
gyro on the yaw axis the model will continue to face north until you command it to yaw. See also Heading

PPM
Pulse Position Modulation.
Peak
This is the point at which a battery will no longer accept a charge, and converts the energy to heat. This is
damaging to the battery pack, and potentially hazardous.
Peak Charger
This type of charger will eliminate the guesswork. When the battery has reached peak, the charger reverts to
a maintenance charge rate, which will not damage the pack.
Pitch Axis
The airplane axis controlled by the elevator. Pitch is illustrated by holding the airplane at each wingtip.
Raising or lowering the nose is the pitch movement. This is how the climb or dive is controlled.

Pitch Curve
The programming function of the radio which aids in setting the hover point, and end points of the blade
pitch in the collective mix.
Pitch to rudder (Heli programming only)
Also known as a revolution mix or a tail rotor mix, counters the torque caused by adding pitch with opposite
direction rudder command to keep the helicopter from rotating or revolving as a result of the increased
torque. Not required with the use of a heading-hold gyro, which self-counters the torque-caused movement.
Pitch Trim
Offsets the entire heli pitch curve, increasing or decreasing responsiveness proportionally at all points.
Programmable mix (Pmix)
Used to cause specific servo responses to specific inputs separate from the basic control set-ups. For
example, used to mix 2 servos to operate in tandem to move a rudder on giant scale aircraft, or to mix
smoke activation based upon throttle stick position.
Pull-Pull
A linkage setup using two rods or wires. One is pulled for one direction, the other is pulled for the other.
Push-Pull
A linkage setup using two rods. One rod pushes, while the other pulls.
RPM
How fast something turns. It means Revolutions Per Minute. It is both singular and plural.
Receiver (Rx)
The radio unit in the aircraft which receives the transmitter signal and relays the control to the servos. This

perceives commands from the transmitter, while the radio in your car perceives music from the radio
station.

This is the increased vibration (or amplitude of oscillation) of system when acted upon by a force whose
frequency is close to or equal to the normal frequency of the system. When the resonance of many parts of

Revolution Mixing
The function of the radio which mixes throttle to rudder, preventing the rotation of the helicopter during
throttle increase or decrease.
Roll (maneuver)
The aircraft keeps the nose pointed in one direction while it rolls over on its back and then upright again.
Roll Axis
The airplane axis controlled by the ailerons. Roll is illustrated by holding the airplane by the nose and tail.
Dropping either wingtip is the roll movement. This is used to bank or turn the airplane. Many aircraft are
not equipped with ailerons and the Roll and Yaw motions are controlled by the rudder. This is one reason
why most trainer aircraft have a larger amount of dihedral.
Rudder
Hinged control surface located at the trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer, which provides control of the
airplane about the Yaw axis and causes the airplane to Yaw left or right. Left rudder movement causes the
airplane to Yaw left, and right rudder movement causes it to Yaw right.
Rudder Offset
In radios with idle up functions, this specifies the amount of tail rotor pitch in the different idle up
conditions.
Rudder-to-Aileron
Mix used to counteract undesirable roll which often happens with rudder input, especially in knife edge,
also called roll coupling.
Rudder-to-Throttle
This heli mix adds a small amount of throttle to counter the added load on the main gear from increasing the
pitch of the tail blades, helping to maintain a constant headspeed during rudder application. (This is a minor
88
effect and is not a critical mix for most helicopters.)
Ruddervator
Ruddervators are on a v-tail. Both of the ruddervators move up and down for pitch control and both move
left or right for yaw control.

which fold out of the fuselage. Some airliners use spoilers as speed brakes when at altitude.
Speed Flap
The middle control surface on a 6-trailing-edge-surface glider or the inboard control surface on a 4-surface
glider.
Spin
A maneuver where at least one wing is stalled and the two wings are operating at very different angles of
attack. This causes the airplane to rotate around its middle while it descends at a high rate of speed. When

Stall
What happens when the angle of attack is too great to generate lift regardless of airspeed. (Every airfoil has
an angle of attack at which it generates maximum lift—the airfoil will stall beyond this angle).

Strut
Basically this is a supporting member. A wing strut supports the wing, and goes from the fuselage to the
wing. Cabane struts are on biplanes, and support the upper wing over the fuselage. A landing gear strut is
the portion that holds the wheel assembly to the airplane, and away from the wing or fuselage.

Taildragger
The nickname of an airplane that sits on its tail with the two main wheels in front and a tailwheel in the rear.
Tailskid
On old World War I type aircraft, or pioneer-type aircraft, there was no tailwheel. A wooden skid was used
to support the tail of the airplane. While this helps slow the airplane during landing, it is useless as an aid
to steering on the ground. The real aircraft with tailskids had to be maneuvered on the ground by ground
crews, who put the tail on a small cart and towed the airplane where they wanted it. For small distances, the
tail was picked-up by hand and the airplane pushed into position by the ground crew.
Tailwheel
The small wheel at the tail of the airplane. This is found on the type of airplane that have the two large
wheels in the front, and the small one in the rear. The airplane sits on its tail.
Throttle
The control that allows the pilot to change the speed of the engine.

Undercamber
This means that the lower surface of the wing has a hollow curve when observed from front to back. A thin
wing with a high camber will be undercambered.
V-tail model Mixing (Air and gliders only)
Used on a V-tail model to have 2 servos operate 2 control surfaces as both rudder and elevator.
Ventral Fin
A small vertical surface on the bottom of the aft fuselage. Usually a long, slim triangle that is narrow at the
front, and widens toward the rear. It usually ends at the rudder hinge line.
Vertical Fin
The non-moving surface that is perpendicular to the horizontal stabilizer and provides yaw stability. This is
the surface to which the rudder attaches.
Washout
An intentional twist in the wing, causing the wing tips to have a lower angle of attack than the wing root.
In other words, the trailing edge is higher than the leading edge at the wing tips. Washout helps prevent tip

If connecting the T6J-2.4 GHz to another T6J-2.4 GHz or other SFHSS/FHSS
transmitter, use the “micro to micro” (MM-TC) trainer cord (FUTM4415). If
connecting the T6J-2.4 GHz to a 72MHz or 2.4 GHz FASST transmitter, use the
“micro to FG” (MM-TC-FG) trainer cord (FUTM4405). This is due to the voltage
difference of the two transmitters and both transmitters need to be turned on.
Never connect the T6J-2.4 GHZ to a transmitter that has the large round (DIN)
connector as it will cause the T6J-2.4 GHz to malfunction.
