2.4GHz 4-Channel Micro Spread Spectrum Radio
The Tactic™ TTX403 Micro 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 brand 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.

  • Page 2 TTX403 TRANSMITTER (Tx) The TTX403 4-Channel Micro airplane transmitter can be confi gured to operate as a 3-channel or 4-channel Tx. When confi gured for 4-channel operation the controls function like a normal Mode-2 transmitter with aileron + elevator on the right stick, and throttle + rudder on the left stick.
  • Page 3 Slide the battery door down, and insert the cells as shown. Make sure to note proper polarity for each cell. Close the battery door. Power LED and Low Battery Alarm The red power LED should light when the power switch is moved upwards to the on position.
  • Page 4 airplane to rise. Pushing the elevator stick forwards (away from you) will cause the nose of the airplane to drop. Throttle (Ch 3) Controls the speed (R.P.M.) at which the motor operates. Pulling the throttle stick back will cause the motor’s speed to decrease. Pushing the throttle stick forward will cause the motor’s speed to increase.
  • Page 5 Elevon & V-Tail Mixing Functions The TTX403 includes elevon and V-tail mixing functions, which can be turned on or off. “Elevon” control consists of a mixture between the elevator and aileron channels, and is useful for certain types of aircraft (such as a fl ying wing). “V-tail” control consists of a mixture between the elevator and rudder channels and is useful for aircraft which have a V-tail.
  • Page 6 ACCESSORIES section for suggested options. Built-In 1S LiPo Charger A 1S LiPo charger is built into the TTX403 transmitter itself. This charger is designed specifi cally for charging a micro 1S 3.7V LiPo cell which has a micro connector. Charge current is rated at 250mAh, with a maximum charge voltage of 4.20V.

    IMPORTANT WARNINGS REGARDING LIPO BATTERY USE NEVER ATTEMPT TO CARE FOR LITHIUM-POLYMER (LiPo) CELLS IN THE SAME WAY AS OTHER BATTERY TYPES! LiPo cells are much more sensitive and volatile than NiCd or NiMH batteries. Misuse and overcharge can quickly result in LiPo cells getting hot and/or swelling, which could lead to VIOLENT EXPLOSION AND/OR FIRE and serious personal injury and property damage.
  • Page 8: System Check And Operation

    SYSTEM CHECK AND OPERATION WARNING! During all pre-fl ight preparations with the aircraft on the ground, make sure the throttle stick remains at the minimum position and do not stand the Tx upright on the ground. Carefully lay the Tx on its back on the ground to prevent it from falling over and possibly dislodging the throttle stick from the low position which would create a safety hazard.
