Under other conditions, the set will not operate, or the specified performance will not be displayed even if it operates. In addi- tion, it may cause servo trouble. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused by combination with the products of other companies.
Page 8: Operation Precautions
Operation Precautions Warning Do not operate outdoors on rainy days, run through puddles of water or use when visibility is limited. Should any type of moisture (water or snow) enter any component of the system, erratic operation and loss of control may occur.
Page 9: Nimh/Nicd/Life Battery Handling Precautions
There is the danger of colli- sion if the power is cut while running (cruising). The use of Futaba genuine NiMH or LiFe batteries is strongly recommended.
Page 10: Other Precautions
Always use only genuine Futaba transmitters, receivers, servos, ESCs (electronic speed controls), NiMH/NiCd/LiFe batteries and other optional accessories. Futaba will not be responsible for problems caused by the use of other than genuine Futaba parts. Use the parts specified in the instruction manual and catalog.

Under other conditions, the set will not operate, or the specifi ed performance will not be displayed even if it operates. In addition, it may cause trouble with servos and other equipment. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused by combination with the products of other companies.
Page 31: Installation
Installation Receiver And Servo Connections Connect the receiver and servos as shown below. Connect and install the receiver and ser- vos in accordance with "Installation Safety Precautions" on the next page. The figure shown below is an example. The method of connecting the motor controller to the motor and battery depends on the motor controller used.
Page 32: Installation Safety Precautions
Installation Safety Precautions Warning Receiver (receiver antenna) Do not cut or bundle the receiver antenna wire. Do not bundle the receiver antenna wire together with the motor controller lead wire. Keep the receiver antenna wire at least 1cm away from motor, battery, and other wiring carrying heavy current. Do not use a metal receiver antenna holder on a plate made of metal, carbon, or other conductive material.
Page 33: Servo Installation
Warning Connector Connections Be sure the receiver, servo, battery and connectors are fully and firmly connected. If vibration from the model causes a connector to work loose while the model is in operation, you may lose control . Servo Installation When you install the servos, always use the rubber grommets provided in servo hardware bags.
Page 34 Warning Electronic Speed Cont Install the heat sinks where they will not come in contact with aluminum, carbon fiber or other parts that conduct electricity. If the FET Amp (Electronic speed control) heat sinks touch other materials that conduct electricity a short circuit could oc- cur.
Page 35: Initial Set-Up
" T-FHSS SR " , " T-FHSS " , " S-FHSS " , or " FASST " is displayed. If not displayed, there is probably an abnormality or trouble so contact a Futaba Service Center. When a screen is displayed at the " DSP " side, " Display " is displayed.
Page 36: Receiver System Change & How To Link
Receiver system Change & How To Link First set up the receiver. Setting changes are immediately reflected. Next, the transmitter and receiver are linked and the receiver memorizes the transmitter ID number so that sig- nals from other transmitters will not be received. In addition, with the T-FHSS telemetry system, the transmitter simultaneously memorizes the receiver ID numbers so that data from other receivers will not be received.
Page 37 After set up this far is complete, when using a FASST system (R614FS/FF/FF-E) or S- FHSS system (R2104GF, R204GF-E, etc.) receiver, go to "Receiver other than T-FHSS" on page 39. When using a telemetry function T-FHSS SR receiver (R334SBS) and T-FHSS re- ceiver (R304SB, etc.) , go to step.
Page 38: Receivers Other Than T-Fhss
Precaution: If there are many Futaba 2.4GHz systems turned on in close proximity to your receiver might not link to your trans- mitter. In this case, even if the receiver’s LED stays solid green, unfortunately the receiver might have established a link to one of other transmitters.
Page 39: Response Mode/ Sr Check
Response Mode/ SR Check Make sure that the response mode or SR mode setting matches the servo or other equipment to be used. Response mode is displayed. Display ON / OFF of SR mode. "Digital servo" In the case of the channel indicated as [SR], SR mode is ON.
Page 40 Under other conditions, the set will not operate, or the specifi ed performance will not be displayed even if it operates. In addition, it may cause servo trouble. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused by combination with the products of other companies.
Page 41: Trigger Ratio Check
Trigger Ratio Check -The throttle servo travel can be set to 50:50, 70:30 or 100:0 for throttle trigger operation as required by the Trigger function (page 62). -The throttle brake operation might be close by setting it to "100:0" when the T7PX trans- mitter with the boat is used.
Page 42 - Steering dual rate (DT5) check At initial set-up, steering dual rate (D/R) is assigned to DT5 trim lever, at the grip of the transmitter. Operate the DT5 and check if the D/R value displayed on the screen changes. After checking D/R, set the steering dual rate to 100%. - Brake rate (DT6) check At initial setting, brake rate (Brake1 rate) is assigned to DT6 trim lever, below DT6.

Traction control Trigger operation with cornering on a slippery road surface is hard to get traction and smooth cornering can not be done. By intermittently operating the operation of the throttle, you can smoothly navigate and travel on topological lines. Also, with a drift car, by in- termittently operating the motor in the high point direction, a pseudo reverberator engine sound can be reproduced.
Page 95 - Delay Set the delay from when the throttle is operated until when the traction control operation starts. When set to 0%, the traction control function works without delay. At 50%, the trac- tion control function works approximately 0.5 second later, and the traction control function works about 1.0 second later at 100%.

Page 98: Start
Start If the track is slippery and you begin to accelerate by pushing the trigger to full throttle, the car wheels will spin and the car will not accelerate smoothly. When the Start function is activated, merely operating the throttle trigger slowly causes the throttle servo to automati- cally switch from the set throttle position to a preset point so that the tires do not lose their grip and the car accelerates smoothly.
