SPEKTRUM DX6 • TRANSMITTER INSTRUCTION MANUAL





The DX6 features a programmable trainer function with 4 wired trainer modes and 2 wireless trainer modes. The transmitter assigns the

trainer function to Switch I.

TRAINER

Wired Trainer

The 4 wired trainer modes include:

Inhibit

In Inhibit, the slave transmitter must have the same

programming as the master transmitter (e.g., servo reversing,

travel adjust, sub-trim, trims).
Programmable Master

Programmable mode enables you to program the master

transmitter to transfer any or all individual channels when you

activate the trainer switch. This mode is ideal for beginners

learning to control individual channels while the master transmitter

maintains control of all other channels.

The slave transmitter should be in Inhibit mode, if available. The

Master and Slave transmitters MUST have the same programming.

Pilot Link Master

Pilot Link Master enables you to program the master

transmitter to transfer any or all individual channels when you

activate the trainer switch. Pilot Link Master is ideal for

complex models, as the master transmitter can maintain

control of all secondary functions—for example flight modes,

retracts, flaps and brakes. Secondary functions can be individually

assigned to the Slave transmitter as necessary. It is not necessary

to have model programming in the slave transmitter.

It may be necessary for the slave transmitter to be in Inhibit mode

to allow trim changes to transfer over from the master transmitter.

Slave

Use Slave mode when using the DX6 as a slave transmitter and

Pilot Link is active in the master transmitter.

Dx6 Wired Trainer Operation

1. Bind the master transmitter to the model.
2. Connect the trainer cord (SPM6805) to the back of the master

transmitter.

3. Make sure the master and slave transmitter battery packs are

fully charged.

4. Make sure the slave transmitter is powered off. The slave

transmitter will power on when you connect the trainer cord.

5. Connect the trainer cord to the slave transmitter.
6. The slave transmitter screen displays information but does not

send a signal to the model.

7. Press the trainer button on the master transmitter to transfer

model control from the master to the slave.

8. While moving the trainer switch between the off and on

positions, watch for movement on the control surfaces. Adjust

the trims as necessary before flying.

9. Release the trainer button and the master transmitter regains

control of the model.

Master Override

The Master Override feature enables the instructor to immediately

regain control of the model by moving the control sticks. After you

activate Master Override, the slave transmitter cannot control the

model until you reset the trainer switch. To reset the trainer switch:

1. Move the trainer switch to the OFF position.
2. Move the trainer switch to the ON position to activate the slave

transmitter.
