Introduction - FUTABA 9ZAP - PART1 Manual

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the
PCM1024Z Radio System. The design of
this system has absolutely no compromises.
You now possess a system that w i l l allow
you to fly your model — airplane, helicop-
ter, or sailplane — with the highest per-
formance possible. With a / / the power in
this system, setting up and adjusting is very
simple. We recommend that you read the
manual carefully to learn about the pro-
gramming features, but if you are in a hur-
ry, follow the example set-up instructions
in the beginning of the model setup proce-
dures sections. We have provided detailed
examples for power aircraft, helicopters,
and sailplanes (with two, four, and five
wing servos).
The transmitter can be used with any
model type by using the desired special
mixing menus for the model you are inter-
ested in — a / / menus are contained in both
types of transmitters. The transmitters for
airplanes and sailplanes (PCM 1024ZA)
contain snap r o l l direction switches and a
different throttle stick feel than the heli-
copter system (PCM 1024ZH).
The PCM 1024ZA System Transmitter
uses a unique menu system, which allows
the utmost in versatility. In stead of a single,
complicated loop that forces the user to
"step through" each menu on the way to
the desired setting, the PCM 1024ZA allows
you to proceed directly to the menu that
you need, bypassing those that do not need
any inputs. This system makes setting up
models both rapid and simple.
You may define different groups of set-
tings that may be called up by the setting
of a single FLIGHT CONDITION switch.
You may program up to eight different
flight conditions for each model in the
main memory area.
Futaba® The exclusive optional synthesized trans-
mitter module and receiver allow you to
choose any
switching crystals or modules, or changing
receivers. Electronically-activated trims are
memorized for each model in memory, and
can't
transmitter is off. The optional CAMPac
Memory Module can store additional model
setups and easily transfer them to other
PCM1024Z transmitters.
All in a l l , the Futaba PCM1024Z is the
most advanced radio control system in the
world — we know that you enjoy using it
for pleasurable flying!
