SWASHPLATE MIXER

This mix is not available when using the “1 Servo” swash setting. This function adjusts the mixture rate of

the pitch, aileron, and elevator channels for the swash plate. Move the cursor to the value to adjust, and
change as necessary.

CYCLIC MIXER

This function can automatically defl ect the roll/pitch servos to negate unwanted loss of lift when throttle

level is adjusted. The aileron and/or elevator channels can be mixed to the throttle channel.

RUDDER MIXER

The aileron and/or elevator channels can be mixed to the rudder channel. Setting of the rudder mix uses

the same method as the throttle mix as explained above.

Setup screens are available specifi cally for multi-rotor models, being a combination of some menus normally

used for airplanes and others for helicopters. Once the model type setting as explained on page 8 has
been set to multi-rotor, and back on the MODEL SETUP page for multi-rotors, refer to descriptions in the
airplane or helicopter sections of this manual for how to set the different screens.

Settings for controlling quads are also a combination of some functions normally used for airplanes and

others for helicopters. Once in the SETTINGS menu for multi-rotors, refer to the descriptions in the airplane
or helicopter sections of this manual for how to set the different settings.

Linking the TTX850 to the Tactic receiver ensures sole communication between the two, and prevents other
transmitters from being able to control the receiver.

1.

Turn on the Tx. (Make sure RF Output is set to ON.)

2.

Apply power to the Rx.

3.

If the Rx LED fl ashes once and then stays on, the Rx is already linked to the Tx and you can skip to

the next section. Otherwise, insert a small diameter screwdriver through the hole marked “LINK” on
the Rx and press the pushbutton until the Rx LED glows red and then turns off after about one second.

4.

Release the “LINK” button.

5.

If the linking is successful, the Rx LED will fl ash once and then remain ON.

6.

Test for proper Tx/Rx functionality before use. If the radio doesn’t appear to have become properly

linked, repeat steps 1– 5 above and move the Tx at least three feet away from the Rx.

The failsafe function is not controlled by the TTX850 transmitter itself, but rather by the Tactic receiver.
Tactic’s stand-alone 2.4GHz receivers have a failsafe feature which engages in the event that the signal

from the Tx somehow becomes interrupted. In such case, depending on the model of receiver being used,

MODEL SETUP – MULTI-ROTORS

SETTINGS MENU – MULTI-ROTORS
