Thanks for purchasing E-Fly 100C radio control set. For safe use, please read this manual before
using carefully. Any damage or loss to radio control set and model due to inproper usew ill n ot b e
shouldered by Art-Tech.

ETC61-2.4G Hz is a new ly develo pe d 6 cha nnel propo rtinal transmiiter.
The latest dev elope d product of ART-TECH RC hobby cor poration the 2.4GHz RC sys tem uses
digital freq uency -hopping technology, i t has enormous advantage compar ed with traditional
system: no cry stal, no frequency inter feren ce, short antenna length a nd low power consumption .
Four flying mo de installed:A(aeroplane mode); V(V tail mode); C(CCPM helicopter mode);

H(helicopter mode) The swithc between each mode is very convenient. There is a reverse switch for Ch1,
CH2,CH4 and CH6 separately.The LCD on the transmitter can show voltage of transmitter,channel status,

flying mode and flying time.It has a function of auto-alarm for low voltage.

Alarm for low voltage of transmitter

Other function of transmitter

When the voltage of transmitter battery is under working voltage,
the red LED will flash.It is better to stop flying,or that can cause
crash of model.

Switch for servo reverse operation

During using, if servos movement can not cater to the model`s flying
need, the servos movement can be changed.CH1 is for ailoren, ch2
for elevator,ch3 for motor, and ch4 for rudder. Rev means reversed
and Nor indicates normal

Operation for chargeable plug

The chargeable plus is on the side of transmitter,and it is specially designed
for charging the transmitter battery.Please note the batteries should be well
arranged in the bay and do not over charged

Adjustment for the joystick`s length

1.turn the head of joystick anticlockwise to prolong the length and deasil
for shorten the length Please note do not prolong too much.

2.tighten the lower part of the joystick anticlockwise

逆时针调长

Deasil to short

Anticlock to prdory

Adjustment on Joystick Spring

The joystick spring can be adjusted and it is possible to change that
for ailoren, elevator and rudder.

1.Turn the srew on the transmitter back anticlockwise, and open the back

2.turn the screw of the channel to adjust the spring, deasil for
stronger and anticlockwise for weaker.

3.close the back and turn the screw deasil

When the voltage of battery in model plane is under working voltage,
ESC has the function of cutting the power to the motor and only supply
to receiver in order to save power. In that case, the model plane
should be landed immediately for the sake of safety.

It is better to choose proper motor and battery in oder not to over load.
And please pay attention to the conntion between ESC and the motor.
In working condition, the ESC will become hot,so please pay attention

Adjustmen order

Charge method of battery

Charge method：

1.Turn off the transmitter, connect the transmitter with the charger in the kits
(Note: Please make sure the transmitter be off before charging, It will not charged unless it is off)

2.check it the input voltage is same as the main voltage,
the plug the charger into the socket.

3.the charging time should be no more than 5 hours,
it should be recharged if it has been unused in long time.

Remark:

1. only the 9.6V Ni-He rechargeable battery can be
charged, the dry cell should not be charged.
2 order to prolong the life of battery, please do not
charge more than the required time.

Open the battery bay, and range the 8 cells AAA battery
into the battery bay, then close the bay.Before adjustment,
change the reverse switch to the lower positon(Nor). Open
the transmitterand the receiver, and do the following steps:

1.check every servo`s movement and make sure every movement of control arms and servo arms is
correct If not, please change the switch for reverse.

2.Check the centering position of ailoren,elevator and rudder
Open the transmitte r an d conne ct t h epower to motor. Make sure every servo is in cetering positon
and check servo armh as a 9 0 a ngel w ith servo. Adjust the length of controll rod, and check all control
arm is in neutral position.

3.Adjustment for range
Check the movement range and the centering positon of each servo. If the travelling range is not accepted,
that can be adjusted by the position of clevise on the servo arm.

4.Check the connection of ESC and Motor
Check the joystick for throttle movement is in accordance with motor. If not, it is can be adjusted by
reverse switch.

5.Check the tiny mix for every control horn.

Here are some technical words used in this Manual

Aileron:Either of two movable flaps on the wings of an airplane that can be used to control
the plane's rolling and banking movements

Elevator:A movable control surface, usually attached to the horizontal stabilizer of an aircraft,
that is used to produce motion up or down.

Rudder:A similar structure at the tail of an aircraft, used for effecting horizontal changes
in course.

Throttle:A valve that regulates the flow of a fluid, such as the valve in an internal-combustion
engine that controls the amount of vaporized fuel entering the cylinders.(For
electronic plane, it can adjust the currency)

Channel:that means the quantity of isolated operation,and also can indicate the number of servos

Joystick: a stick that can be used to control operation on the transmitter

Proportional Radio:the serv o is contr olled by t hat radio and th e serv o arm s ca n mo ve
proportionally and this kind of radio can be called proportiona l radio

Modulation Mode:Usually there are two modulation mode in radio controll system: AM and FM.
Normall y FM i s chose d fo r mode l plane.A s wel l, ther e ar e tw o mod e i n signa l
code communication:PPM and PCM

Neutral:Without operation, joysticks in the center position and the servo arm will come to center.

Control Horn: a pole that can connect the servo and control set.

Servo Arm: a part of servo,and it can transit the servo movement to the control horn.With many
shpaes, and it should be fixed to the servo by screw.
