Note5
1) Do NOT turn on the power of the STUDENT transmitter having the STEREO Jack.
Once you plug the trainer cable into the STUDENT Transmitter using the STEREO Jack, it will be
powered on automatically.
2) All Transmitters in the trainer system use their own batteries. Both batteries in both the Instructor
and Student Transmitters should be properly charged and installed when flying in the trainer mode.
3) You may wish to use a simple "contractors cord" knot on the cable to adaptor connection to keep it
from coming "unplugged" when using it. Heat shrink tubing or electrical tape can also be used.
Stick Length Adjustment
Hands come in all sizes so to accommodate everyone we use a two piece stick "top" that can be
adjusted to fit a wide variety of users.
Separate the top from the bottom piece and adjust the top piece to the length required.
Screw the bottom up against the top piece to "jam" lock everything into position.
Stick Lever Tension Adjustment / Mode Change
Stick Lever Tension Adjustment
You may adjust the stick tension of your sticks to provide the "feel" that you like for flying. To adjust
your springs, you'll have to remove the case of the transmitter. Using a screwdriver, remove the six
screws that hold the transmitter's rear cover into position, and put them in a safe place. Now, place
some padding under the front of the transmitter and set it face-down on the pad.
Gently ease off the transmitter's rear cover. Now you'll see the view shown. Use a small cross-point
screwdriver, rotate the adjusting screw for each stick for the desired spring tension.
The tension increases when the adjusting screw is turned clockwise, and decreases for
counterclockwise motion.
Note: Please use M2 (2mm) or 5/64inch Hex key for tension adjustment and mode changes.
When you are satisfied with the spring tensions, you may close the transmitter. Very carefully reinstall
the rear cover. When the cover is properly in place, tighten the six screws.
Change to 'Mode 1' Configuration
All Optic 6 Sport 2.4 systems sold in US are in 'Mode 2' format. However, you may wish to use Optic 6
Sport in 'mode 1' format. There is a menu choice for this option in the Initial Set-Up function menu
described on Page 15.
After selecting 'Mode 1' in the Initial Set-Up Menu, you must do the following hardware set-up in order
to change the transmitter
1. Carefully remove the plastic side panels from the transmitter.
2. Remove all the six philips screws from the back of the case.
3. Unscrew a hex screw to remove the Copper Ratchet from where it is located and move it to the
other side.
4. Allocate the "Mode Selection Jumper" to be connected with the other two.
