• FEATURES
This radio control set has been developed for FAI RC acrobatic F3A use. Please read this manual thoroughly before using your set.
Transmitter FP-T8JN
•The transmitter employs a module system. The frequency band and modulation method can be changed with one touch.
•The
servos
can
be
operated
without
transmitting radio signals. Wire operation is possible by using the special cord furnished with the set.
•A reversing device is self-contained. The servo can be reversed by switching a switch.
•An aileron and elevator angle switching device is self-contained.
•Open gimble sticks provide maximum feel.
•An travel adjuster is self-contained.
Servo travel is independently adjustable to the left and right (up, down).
•Elevator and flap mixing. Amount and direction are variable. Release switch is also provided.
•Flap
and

mixing.
Amount
and
direction
are variable. Release switch is also provided.
•Two
roll buttons. Elevator angle and
direction
can be freely adjusted.
•Two
snap
roll
buttons.
Aileron, elevator, and
rudder angle and direction can be freely adjusted.
•Throttle button. Throttle half can be freely adjusted.
•Hook band is standard. Since this transmitter has numerous accessories, hanging it from your neck with this band makes operation easier.
•Buit-in

stage.
•Human engineered exterior. Superior operability.
Receiver FP-R8J
•Module type. The frequency band and modulation method
can be changed
with
one
touch,
the
same
as the transmitter.
•Eight
channels
packed
in a compact,
lightweight,
and rugged case.
•All
connectors
have
trouble-free, metal
plated pins. Housing is also special and provides an ex­cellent feeling. Resistance against vibration and shock has been improved substantially.
•One-stage FET RF amplifier. Two signal charac­teristic is superb.
•Servos can be controlled without transmitting by connecting the transmitter directly to a "C" terminal.
FP-S121, FP-S121H and FP-S121G servos
•Compact, lightweight, rugged.
•Powerful output torque (3kg-cm).
•Output
shaft
is
supported by
two
ball bearings
to assure excellent neutral characteristics and ample durability.
•Waterproof, dustproof type.
•Special 16/o micromotor.
•High-speed servo (FP-S121 H) is also available.
•Standard equipment includes two 8-channel, 6 servo landing gear servos (FP-S121G).
