Charge Jack
WARNING!! Do NOT attempt to recharge alkaline batteries! The charge jack should ONLY be used if
rechargeable cells are used in the transmitter.
The TTX600 includes a built-in charge jack for convenient recharging of NiCd or NiMH batteries, and is compatible with
charge leads designed for Futaba
® brand transmitters (HCAP0101). This jack is NOT compatible with charge leads for
Hitec ® , Airtronics ® , JR ® or Spektrum ® radios.
To use the charge jack with optional rechargeable batteries, fi rst remove the sticker that covers the charge jack on the side of
the Tx – making sure not to allow any object to be inserted inside the jack itself. Next, insert the cells inside the Tx’s battery
compartment noting proper polarity. Make sure the transmitter’s power switch is in the OFF position. Connect a compatible
charge lead to the jack and follow the instructions included with the charger for charging of NiCd or NiMH batteries that are
rated at 4.8V.
Tactic’s optional TACP1000 rechargeable battery and wall charger kit includes eight “AA” size rechargeable NiMH cells and
110V AC wall charger, which is compatible with this Tx and can be found at local retailers. Make sure to follow the instructions
included with the charge kit.
WARNING!! It’s not recommended to charge batteries at greater than 1 amp through this charge jack.
Fast charging of NiCd and NiMH batteries should ONLY be done with chargers that are specifi cally
designed to include the peak-detection function which can automatically stop charge when full charge
is detected. Misuse, improper charging, or over-charging of rechargeable cells can result in damage to
the cells that could include cell rupture, explosion, or fi re!!
Trainer Function
The TTX600 Tx includes a built-in wireless trainer function – no trainer cable required! This trainer system connects a
teacher’s Tactic Tx to a student’s Tactic Tx by wireless connection. Tactic’s wireless trainer function is not compatible with
trainer systems in any other brand radios.
IMPORTANT! Before attempting to fl y the airplane, it’s very important to make sure all reversing switches and
trim lever adjustments on the student’s Tx match the settings on the teacher’s Tx! Otherwise, the airplane could
suddenly veer off in an unwanted manner when the teacher’s trainer switch is pressed. 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!
1. The Tx that was used to set up the controls on the aircraft must be used by the TEACHER.
2. The student must use a separate Tactic Tx with wireless trainer function.
3. Place the teacher and student’s transmitters within 1 meter of each other, and make sure the throttle stick for each
Tx is set to idle.
4. Turn ON the power switch for the Tx being held by the student.
5. Pull and hold the trainer switch on the teacher’s Tx, and then turn ON the teacher’s Tx power switch.
6. The LED on the teacher’s Tx will fl ash 3 times to indicate it has become bound with the student’s Tx.
7. The teacher can then release his trainer switch.
8. Once both transmitters are bound together, power can be applied to the receiver to prepare for fl ight.
When the training session has ended, with the model on the ground and all power removed from the model, place both
transmitters within 1 meter of each other and simply turn the power switch for both transmitters to the OFF position. This will
terminate the wireless link between both transmitters. If additional training will be performed again, return to step 1 above to
re-establish the wireless link between the teacher and student’s transmitters.
