General Information; Throttle Alt; Low Battery Alarm; Warning Screen For Throttle Hold/Stunt Mode - Spektrum DX6I User Manual

GENERAl INfORMATION

ThROTTlE AlT

The Throttle ALT function makes the throttle stick trim active only when the throttle stick is at less than half throttle.
This allows accurate idle adjustments without affecting the mid to high throttle position.

lOW bATTERy AlARM

When the battery voltage drops below 4.3 volts an alarm will sound and the voltage bar will flash.

WARNING SCREEN fOR ThROTTlE hOlD/STUNT MODE

When the DX6i is operated in the helicopter mode, there is a warning system that is employed to avoid hot starts
(accidental high throttle startups) when the power switch is initially turned ON. If the flight mode switch or throttle
hold is on, an alarm will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the LCD. When all switches are
returned to the normal condition, the display will return to normal.

TRAINER

The DX6i offers a Trainer function that allows the transmitter to operate as a master or slave. The trainer switch is
located on the back left of the transmitter.
MASteR
The transmitter can be used as a master but the slave transmitter must have the same programming (i.e. reverse,
travel adjust, dual rates, mixes, sub trims, etc.) as the master.
SlAvE MODE (CONvENTIONAl)
When using the transmitter as a slave with another DX6i it's necessary to match all the programmable settings (i.e.
reverse, travel adjust, etc.).
