TTX410 TM 2.4GHz 4-CHANNEL RADIO INSTRUCTION MANUAL The TTX410 airplane radio system uses the advanced 2.4GHz spread spectrum SLT “Secure Link Technology” protocol for solid, interference-free control of R/C models. Ball-bearing gimbals, wired and wireless trainer systems, plus elevon and v-tail mixes are just a few of the features for using the TTX410 with models of all sizes. Tactic 2.4GHz transmitters are compatible only with Tactic brand receivers and those utilizing the SLT protocol.

TTX410 TRANSMITTER (Tx) NORMAL STICK CONFIGURATIONS LEFT STICK RIGHT STICK Aileron Rudder Mode1: Elevator Mode2: Throttle Mode1: Throttle Mode2: Elevator The TTX410 is available in either a “Mode 2” configuration with throttle on the left and elevator on the right, or “Mode 1” configuration with throttle on the right and elevator on the left. Be sure the radio purchased is of the correct mode. To change between stick modes (mode2 <> mode1), see tacticrc.
FLIGHT CONTROLS GIMBAL STICKS Ball-bearing construction allows both sticks to provide the ultimate in smooth, precise control. Stick length can be adjusted for optimum feel and control. Using a 5/64" hex wrench, loosen the set screw inside the tip of the stick. Rotate the stick tip counterclockwise to lengthen or clockwise to shorten the stick. Once the desired stick length is found, tighten the screw.
For airplanes with glow engines, the position of the throttle trim lever is helpful for determining the engine’s preferred idle point. The throttle trim lever is not active when the main throttle stick is above 50% full throttle. REVERSING SWITCHES Inside the battery compartment is a bank of switches, with one reversing switch for each channel. Each switch can reverse the rotational direction of the servo that is connected to that respective channel.
6. The LED on the teacher’s Tx will flash 3 times to indicate it has linked to the student’s Tx. 7. Release the trainer switch on the teacher’s Tx. 8. Once both transmitters are linked together, power can be applied to the Rx to prepare for flight. Make sure both transmitters are kept within 15 feet of each other at all times while training. 9. To transfer control of the aircraft to the student, pull the teacher’s trainer switch and hold.
RECEIVER and FLIGHT EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION (if applicable) RECEIVER (Rx) LED Link Button CH6 Auxiliary (inactive for TTX410) CH5 Auxiliary (inactive for TTX410) CH4 Rudder CH3 Throttle (electronic speed control or servo) CH2 Elevator CH1 Aileron BAT Battery Mount the Rx as specified in the model’s instructions. Wrapping the Rx with foam rubber can help to prevent damage resulting from vibration but could prevent adequate airflow from passing over the Rx.
ELECTRIC and COMBUSTION POWERED APPLICATIONS ELECTRIC MODELS An optional ESC (electronic speed control) will be necessary to control speed of the electric motor, and to supply power to the receiver and servos. Connect the ESC’s receiver plug to Rx slot marked CH3 (for throttle). Center the transmitter’s throttle trim and follow the ESC instructions for proper operation and connection of the battery.
FAILSAFE FUNCTION The failsafe function is controlled by the included receiver. This function engages in the event the signal from the Tx somehow becomes interrupted. In such case, channels 1, 2, and 4 (not channel 3) will hold their last received position. The factory default failsafe position for channel 3 is to move to 0% throttle. The throttle’s failsafe position can be manually set to any other position if desired, as follows: 1.
b. Combustion: confirm that when the throttle stick is at maximum position the mechanical linkage allows the engine to be at full throttle. And, when the throttle stick is at minimum position and the throttle trim lever is moved to minimum position, the engine stops completely. 7. Perform a “range check” to confirm the safe operating distance from the Tx to the Rx. With the assistance of another person, place the aircraft on the ground and walk 100 feet (30m) away from the model.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS ● NEVER allow water or moisture to make contact with the electronic components inside the transmitter, receiver, servos, switch harness, etc.! This could lead to failure or improper functionality of components and poor control of aircraft which could pose a safety hazard. ● NEVER operate R/C model aircraft near power lines, radio or cell phone towers, roads or automobiles, buildings, or pedestrians.
RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES WON’T ACCEPT CHARGE THROUGH THE TRANSMITTER: Check the charger for proper setup and operation. Make sure the charge plug is inserted fully into the charge jack. Make sure the Tx power switch is in the OFF position. Make sure the cells are inserted inside the battery compartment in the proper direction. Contact Hobby Services for other problems.
