GEnERAl

The spring tension of the throttle trigger and steering wheel can be adjusted to best suit the user. Some users may prefer the throttle trigger and/or steering wheel to feel 'firmer' and some users may prefer them to feel 'softer'. It all depends on your personal preference.

To adjust the throttle trigger spring tension, follow the step below:

1) To increase the spring tension of the throttle trigger (firmer), use a

1.5mm hex wrench to turn the Throttle Trigger Tension Adjustment Screw (A) clockwise. To decrease the spring tension of the throttle trigger (looser), turn the Throttle Trigger Tension Adjustment Screw counter-clockwise.

To adjust the steering wheel spring tension, follow the step below:

1) To increase the spring tension of the steering wheel (firmer), use a

1.5mm hex wrench to turn the Steering Wheel Tension Adjustment Screw (A) clockwise. To decrease the spring tension of the steering wheel (looser), turn the Steering Wheel Tension Adjustment Screw counter-clockwise.

The maximum right and left travel of the steering wheel can be adjusted to best suit the feel of the steering wheel and your driving style. Some drivers prefer to limit the travel of the steering wheel as it makes them feel more 'connected' to their model.

To adjust the maximum travel of the steering wheel, follow the steps below:

1) Remove the foam steering wheel grip from the steering wheel by firmly pulling it straight off.

2) To limit the maximum travel of the steering wheel, use a 1.5mm hex wrench to turn both grub screws (A) clockwise equally the desired amount. To maximize the travel of the steering wheel, turn both grub screws counter-clockwise equally the desired amount.

After making steering wheel travel adjustments, you must use the Variable Rate Adjustment function to ensure your steering servo travel limits are equal. For more information, see the

Variable Rate Adjustment section on page XX.

Limiting the maximum travel of the steering wheel will increase the sensitivity of the steering. We recommend setting negative Exponential to soften the control feel around Neutral. For

more information, see the Exponential and ARC Adjustment section on pages XX through XX.

GEnERAl

A wrist strap anchor is included that can be installed onto the transmitter to facilitate the use of a wrist strap (not included).

To install the wrist strap anchor, follow the steps below:

1) Remove the self-tapping screw (A) from the transmitter, using a # 1 philips head screwdriver.

2) Slide the wrist strap anchor into the mounting slot in the back of the

transmitter, then reinstall and tighten the self-tapping screw.

When installing the wrist strap anchor, note its orientation. The U-Shaped

groove in the base of the wrist strap anchor should be pointing down.

bInDInG THE TRAnSMITTER AnD REcEIvER

The Binding function allows you to 'Bind' the transmitter and receiver pair. When new, it is necessary to pair the transmitter and receiver to prevent interference from transmitters operated by other users. This operation is referred to as 'Binding'. Once the Binding process is complete, the setting is remembered even when the transmitter and receiver are turned OFF. Therefore, this procedure usually only needs to be done once.

Under some circumstances, the receiver may not operate after turning the transmitter and receiver ON. If this occurs, perform the Binding process again.

IMPORTANT: This section details Binding the RX-472 4-Channel 2.4GHz FH4T Super Response receiver with the Servo Operating Mode set to Normal mode. If you are Binding an FH2 or FH3 receiver, or if you prefer to change the Servo Operating Mode, see the

4) While holding down the Bind Button on the receiver, turn the receiver ON. The Bind LED on the receiver will flash slowly. After approximately 2 seconds, release the Bind Button. The Bind LED on the receiver will continue to flash slowly.

You must complete step 5 below within 10 seconds or the Bind LED will go out, indicating the receiver has timed out. If this occurs, turn the receiver OFF, then repeat step 4.

5) Press the ENTER key. The [ENTER] command will begin to flash and the Bind LED on the receiver will flash rapidly, then go out.

6) After the Bind LED on the receiver goes out, press the ENTER key a second time. The Bind LED on the receiver will illuminate solid blue and LED 2 on the transmitter will go out, indicating that the Binding procedure is complete and a Telemetry connection has been made.

01.CH-Set (CHannel Set)

The Channel Set function allows you to make programming changes to each of the four channels without the need to enter each Programming Menu separately. Essentially, the Channel Set function encompasses the most common programming options in one convenient location. For example, you can make all of your desired programming changes, such as End Point Adjustment, Exponential, Servo Speed, Fail Safe settings, etc., for each channel, all from within the same menu.

This section details how to use the Channel Set function. For information about programming each of the Programming Menus within the CH-SET menu, refer to the specific Programming Menu sections on the pages shown in

the table above.

1) From the TOP screen, press the ENTER key to open the Programming Menu list.

The Dual Rate function allows you to change the control authority of the Steering, Throttle High Side and Throttle Brake Side by changing the amount of servo travel relative to control input. For example, by increasing the Steering Dual Rate, you can make the steering servo travel more which might prevent your model from pushing during turns. If your model

IMPORTANT: Prior to programming the Dual Rate function, you should adjust the maximum Left and Right (or High and Low) End Points, using the End Point Adjustment function. For more information, see the End Point Adjustment section on pages 22 and 23.

Dual Rate is a percentage of End Point Adjustment. For example, if you set the Steering Dual Rate percentage value to 100%, the steering will travel the same amount as defined by your End Point Adjustment programming. If you

The End Point Adjustment function allows you to adjust servo travel in each direction. This makes it possible to balance servo travel in both directions and set the maximum desired amount of servo travel. For example, on a gas-powered model, if you pull the throttle trigger and the carburetor does not open completely, you can increase the Throttle High End Point Adjustment so that the carburetor opens completely. Another example is with steering. If your model turns sharper to the right than to the left, you can increase the Steering Left End Point Adjustment to balance the steering. The End Point Adjustment function can be adjusted for the Steering channel (Right and Left), the Throttle channel (Throttle High

WARNING End Point Adjustment percentage values should not be increased to the point where your linkages and servos bind when moved all the way to the right or left. Binding will cause the servos to 'buzz', resulting in a quicker loss of battery power and eventual damage to the servos.

04.Curve (eXPonential and arC adjuStMent)

The Exponential and Adjustable Rate Control (ARC) functions allow you to vary the amount of servo travel in relation to the movement of the steering wheel, throttle trigger and auxiliary lever near the Neutral positions to change the way those functions react to control movement. Decreasing the Exponential or Adjustable Rate Control percentage values will soften the control feel around Neutral and increasing the Exponential or Adjustable Rate Control percentage values will heighten the control feel around Neutral. Using a lower negative value allows for smoother control. Using a higher positive value may result in more 'twitchy' control response.

Adjusting the Release and Hold Values

The Release and Hold values determine the speed at which the brake pulsates. By adjusting the Release and Hold values, you can make the brake pulsate faster or slower. The Release value determines how quickly the Brake moves from Neutral to the percentage value determined by the Stroke setting and the Hold value determines how quickly the Brake

We recommend using equal Release and Hold values, although different values can be used to fine-tune how
