CONTROL STICK LENGTH ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the control stick length, use a 2mm Allen
wrench to unlock the set screw located inside the
end of the control stick. Turn the set screw
counterclockwise to loosen it, then turn the knurled
portion of the stick to adjust the length.
Counterclockwise will lengthen the stick and
clockwise will shorten it. After the control stick(s)
has been adjusted to suit your flying style, tighten
the set screw.
NECK STRAP ATTACHMENT
There is an eye hook on the front of the transmitter
for attaching an optional neck strap (JRPA023). The
eye hook is precisely positioned (see Section 3.2)
so that the transmitter will be perfectly balanced
when a neck strap is used.
