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. This is
often a much easier method for changing the direction of a servo’s movement as opposed to altering the
mechanical connections between the model’s surface and the servo. Refer to the model’s instructions for
specific details.
The switch bank is numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Moving the small switch lever for the respective channel number
will change the direction of control for that channel.
The TTX410 Tx includes both wired and wireless trainer functions.
IMPORTANT: Before flying the model in training situations it’s important to make sure all channel
reverse settings and trim adjustments on the teacher and student transmitters match! Otherwise, the
model could suddenly veer in an unwanted manner when the teacher’s trainer switch is activated.
Proper matching of the student and teacher’s Tx settings should ensure that no unexpected
movements occur when the trainer switch is pressed. This is especially true of the throttle control!
WIRED TRAINER
This option allows for connection to another Tx having a trainer jack, and can function as either the teacher
or student’s Tx. This also allows for connection of the TTX410 to some computer based flight simulators. See
the SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES section on page 12 for recommended trainer cords. Refer to instructions
included with those cords. To properly assign control of the aircraft to the teacher/student when using two
Tactic brand transmitters for training, follow these steps in order:
1. Link the teacher’s Tx to the receiver inside the aircraft as explained on page 9. Remove power from
the Rx, then the Tx.
2. Connect the student’s Tx to the teacher’s Tx with the appropriate trainer cord.
3. Turn the student’s transmitter power switch ON.
4. Turn the teacher’s transmitter power switch ON.
5. To transfer control of the aircraft to the student, pull the teacher’s trainer switch and hold. Release
the switch to immediately return control of the aircraft to the teacher.
6. When the training session has ended and power has been safely removed from the model, disconnect
the trainer cord.
WIRELESS TRAINER
This option allows for communication with another Tactic Tx by wireless means, and can function as the teacher
or student’s Tx. This function is not compatible with other brand radios.
1. Link the teacher’s Tx to the receiver inside the aircraft. Remove power from the Rx, then the Tx.
2. The student must use a separate Tactic Tx with wireless trainer function.
3. Place both transmitters within 1 meter of each other, with the throttle stick for each Tx in the idle position.
4. Turn the student’s Tx power switch ON.
5. Pull and hold the teacher’s Tx trainer switch, and then turn the teacher’s Tx power switch ON.
