1.Important Safety Notice：
The following two symbols will appear in this manual（please pay attention to the paragraph with this
two symbols labeled）：
Prohibition Testing and confirmation
Do not use in bad weather such as rainy or thundering to assure the safety of you and others.
Forbid to use this product in the crowd and the place against national law!
You need to turn the throttle channel(CH3) and inch switch to the lowest before you use. Then
switch on the transmitter, finally connect the receiver.
Before using, please make sure the movements of servo are corresponding with the direction of
joystick. If inconsistent, please adjust them before using.
The sequence to shut down is that turn off the receiver power first, and then shut down the
transmitter. If the above operations are reverse, it might lead to uncontrolled situation and cause
accidents.
The transmitter needs to be powered by 4 AA batteries or 2S-4S LiPo batteries. Please check the
voltage of batteries before using, as it might lead to uncontrolled situation and accidents when the
voltage is lacked. So you must change the battery or recharge them in time.
Warning!!!
This product is not a toy and is not suitable for children under the age of 18. Adults should keep
the product out of the reach of children and exercise caution when operating this product in the
presence of children.
Please don't run in the rain! Rain or moisture may enter the transmitter internal through gaps in the
antenna or joystick and cause your car to instability even out of control. If inevitable will run in the wet
weather (such as game), please be sure to use plastic bags or waterproof cloth to cover your
transmitter, please don't run if there is lightning.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

2.Pistol Grip Control System
THT6, transmitter with chip STM32F103RB, receiver THR6 with 32 bits industrial chip, 12ms only from
transmitter to the receiver, thus provide control synchronous and performance perfect.
The same FHSS spread spectrum and 67 channels pseudo random frequency sequence hopping of
AT9S makes THT6 have superior anti-interference ability both at the same frequency band and
different frequency bands.
Control distance is up to 400 meters.

2.2.1 Receiver Installation and Binding
How to Match Code With Transmitter:
1. Put the transmitter and the receiver close to each other within 50 centimeters.
2. Turn on the transmitter, then power on the THR6.
3. There is a black button on the THR6, press the binding button twice in two seconds and release,
receiver light start blinking, after about blinking 8 times, match code success then receiver signal LED
always on!
Installment of receiver antenna：
(1) The antenna must be kept as straight as possible. Otherwise it will reduce the effective range.
(2) Large model aircraft may of some metal part interfering signal; in this case the antennas
should be placed at both sides of the model. Then the best RF signal condition is obtained at any
flying attitude.
(3) The antennas must be kept away from conductive materials, such as metal and carbon by at
least a half inch. The coaxial part of the antennas does not need to follow these guidelines, but do not
bend it in a small radius.
(4) Keep the antennas away from the motor, ESC, and other noise sources as much as possible.
(5) Press and hold the Easy Link (ID SET) one second, now the receiver starts work.
(6) After all of the above steps finished, the LED indicator will turn and keep in red/green.
(7) The receiver can be packed by sponge or foam for shocking proof when it is installed to the
model.
After all of the above steps finished, turn off the transmitter and then power it on, now the program
functions to assure it under control of transmitter with a right connection.
3. THT6 Functions
3.1 Display When Power Switch Turned On
LCD Screen
When you power on the transmitter, LCD screen shows Model Name, Transmitter Name, Battery
Voltage, Steering Trim, Throttle Trim.
Model Name
The system can store the data for 10 models, model name will show on the LCD when you power on
the transmitter. Please make sure the model name is the right one that you want.

If the model name you chose is not corresponding with your model, the settings should be wrong.
Battery Voltage
In addition to the model, LCD can show the voltage of battery. When the voltage is lower than 4.6V, it
would start the low-voltage alarm, it would send out “DDD…” sounds, till the transmitter is
power-off. When you hear the low-voltage alert, you have no more than 4 minutes for controlling
your model, please safely stop your model before the uncontrolled situation. Please make sure the
battery voltage is higher than this voltage data while radio controlling.
