2.4GHz 4-Channel Spread Spectrum Radio
The Tactic TTX404 airplane radio system uses an advanced 2.4GHz spread
spectrum technology to prevent unwanted outside interference from interrupting
control of the model, ensuring error-free fl ying and eliminating the need to pull
frequency pins before every fl ight. Tactic 2.4GHz transmitters and receivers are not
compatible with other brands of 2.4GHz equipment.
For safe operation and best results, it's strongly recommended to
read this manual in its entirety before use! Also read and understand
the instructions included with the model. Damage resulting from
misuse or modifi cation will void your warranty.

TTX404 TRANSMITTER ( Tx ) The TTX404 airplane transmitter is available in either a “Mode 2” confi guration with throttle on the left and elevator on the right, or “Mode 1” confi guration with throttle on the right and elevator on the left. Mode 2 radios are most commonly used in the U.S., whereas Mode 1 radios are popular in other countries. - Page 3 Tx should have adequate power for fl ight when the LED is on constantly. Anytime the LED begins to fl ash, accompanied by the sounding of an audible tone, the Tx battery voltage has dropped too low and operation of the model should NOT be attempted! WARNING! Never operate an R/C model with weak Tx batteries! Reduced operational range and/or possible loss of control of the...

When using the rudder in conjunction with the ailerons, the airplane’s nose can point into a turn (instead of pointing up and “skidding” through the turn), allowing the airplane to perform tighter, more coordinated turns. TRIMS A “trim” lever is included for each of the main controls, located adjacent to the respective stick. - Page 5 NiCd or NiMH batteries that are rated at 4.8V. Tactic’s optional TACP1000 rechargeable battery and wall charger kit includes eight “AA” size rechargeable NiMH cells and 110V AC wall charger, which is compatible with this Tx and can be found at local retailers.
