FlyingPrecautions
= Mandatory
WARNING
Nevergraspthetransmitterantennawhileflying.
The transmitter output may drop drastically.
Alwaysmakesurethatalltransmitterstickmovementsoperate all servos properly in
the model prior to flight. Also, make
surethatallswitches,etc.functionproperlyaswell.Ifthereare any difficulties, do
not use the system until all inputs are functioningproperly.
Neverflyinrangecheckmode.
In the dedicated range test range check mode, the transmitter output range is
reduced and may cause a crash.
While operating, never touch the transmitter with, or bring the transmitter
near, another transmitter, a cellphone, or other wirelessdevices.
Doing so may cause erroneous operation.
Do not point the antenna directly toward the aircraft during flight.
The antenna is directional and the transmitter output is weakest. (The
strength of the radio waves is greatest from the sides of the antenna.)
Never fly on a rainy day, when the wind is strong, or at night.
Water could lead to failure or improper functionality and poor control of the
aircraft which could lead to a crash.
Neverturnthepowerswitchoffduringflightorwhiletheengineormotorisrunning.
Operation will become impossible and the aircraft will crash. Even if the
power switch is turned on, operation will not begin until transmitter and
receiver internal processing is complete.
Do not start the engine or motor while wearing the neck strap.
The neck strap may become entangled with the rotating propeller, rotor, etc.
and cause a serious injury.
Donotflywhenyouarephysicallyimpairedasitcouldposea

Donotflyatthefollowingplaces: Near another radio control flying field.
Near or above people.
Near homes, schools, airports, stations, hospitals or other places where
people congregate.
Near high voltage lines, high structures, or communication facilities.
When setting the transmitter on the ground during flight
preparations,donotstanditupright. The transmitter may tip over, the sticks may
move and the propeller or
rotor may rotate unexpectedly and cause injury.
Do not touch the engine, motor, or ESC during and immediatelyafteruse. These
items may become hot during use.
Forsafety,flysothattheaircraftisvisibleatalltimes. Flying behind buildings or
other large structures will not only cause you
to lose sight of the aircraft, but also degrade the RF link performance and
cause loss of control.
From the standpoint of safety, always set the fail safe function. In
particular, normally set the throttle channel to idle. For a helicopter, set
the throttle channel to maintain a hover.
When flying, always return the transmitter setup screen to theHomescreen.
Erroneous input during flight is extremely dangerous.
Always check the remaining capacity of the transmitter and
receiverbatteriesbeforeeachflyingsessionpriortoflight. Low battery capacity
will cause loss of control and a crash.

FASSTest is a maximum 26 channels (linear 24 channels + switch 2 channels) 2.4
GHz dedicated system.
Channelexpansion(multipropfunction)
The multiprop function can be used by using the separately sold multiprop
decoder MPDX-1. The multiprop function is a function that divides one channel
into eight channels and extends the number of channels. Up to 2 MPDX-1s can be
used, and up to 32 channels can be expanded as follows.In the case of
FASSTest18CH) Linear channel 14 channels (2 channels are used by multi-prop
function) ON/OFF channel 2 channels Multiprop channels 16 channels Multiprop
channels have the following differences from normal linear channels. · The
resolution of the multiprop channel is lower than that of the linear
channel. · Operating multiple multiprop channels simultaneously may reduce the
operation response of the multiprop channel. · Multiprop channels can not use
the mixing function.

Antenna instructions
1. The two antennas must be kept as straight as possible. Otherwise it will
reduce the effective range.
2. The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other.
This is not a critical figure, but the most important thing is to keep the
antennas away from each other as much as possible.
Larger models can have large metal objects that can attenuate the RF signal.
In this case the antennas should be placed at both sides of the model. Then
the best RF signal condition is obtained at any flying attitude.
3. The antennas must be kept away from conductive materials, such as metal,
carbon and fuel tank by at least a half inch. The coaxial part of the antennas
does not need to follow these guidelines, but do not bend it in a tight
radius.
4. Keep the antennas away from the motor, ESC, and other noise sources as
much as possible.

For FASSTest 26/18CH Select dual mode and link primary
*Follow the link procedure for each receiver manual.
Receiver Switch ESW-1J
ESW-1J connects a Futaba receiver to a battery and is turned on and off in an
FET circuit. Compared to using a mechanical switch, it allows more current to
be sent with less loss.
Use the mounting plate from the receiver on/off switch as a template for the
cutout and screw holes. Mount the switch on the side of the fuselage opposite
the engine exhaust, and where it won’t be inadvertently turned on or off
during handling or storage. Be certain the switch moves without restriction
and “snaps” from ON to OFF, and that the cutout allows full motion of the

BASIC OPERATION
How to turn ON/OFF the power of the transmitter
Windows®Embedded Compact 7 is installed as a builtin operating system in the
T32MZ-WC transmitter. Compared to the conventional system, the T32MZ-WC takes
extra time for internal processing when it is turned on/off.
The center switch is pushed.
Whenturningonthepowerofthetransmitter 1. Place the throttle stick below 1/3
closed. 2. Turn on the power switch.
After initialization of the transmitter is complete, the LED monitor turns Purple.
If your throttle stick is not at 1/3 closed or fully closed, a warning will sound. If you move the throttle to 1/3 closed or fully closed, the warning will stop and will become a “Transmit ?” screen.
If you push the button “NO”, then the transmitter will not emit radio waves.
If you push the button “Yes”, then the transmitter will emit radio waves.
*If a battery is removed and it re-connects, please switch on a power supply, after 3 seconds or more pass.
Start-up time; The time required to initialize the internal circuit of the
transmitter varies between the previous time you turned the power off and then
restarted the transmitter. There are two “start up” modes for your
transmitter, see below: Cold start; If you turn on the transmitter more than
four hours after you last turned it off, the mode is “Cold start”. “Cold
start” is normal for the first initial power up of the day. It will take about
30 seconds to be ready for use, as it takes time to initialize the internal
circuit of the transmitter.
Hot start; If you turn on the transmitter less than four hours after you last
turned it off, the mode is “Hot start”. Since initialization has been partly
completed, the transmitter will be ready to use in several seconds. Since
initialization has been partly completed, the transmitter will be ready to use
in several seconds. “Hot start” takes place usually at a second flight or
later flight in the day.
Howtostopthetransmitter Turn off the power switch of the transmitter. The
internal circuit of the transmitter starts the shut down process including
saving the set-up data.
Push and hold the center switch.
Once you turn off the power, never operate the power switch until the power
shutdown process is fully completed. If
youturnonthepowerswitchagainwhilethetransmitterisstill
intheprocessofpowershutdown,thedatacouldbedamaged.
Howtoresetsoftware If the screen freezes for some reason and you cannot edit,
the transmitter power supply is not fully off even if you turn OFF the power
switch. You will need to remove the battery and reinsert it again. In this
case, the power restarts in “Cold mode”. Even though the screen freezes, all
the other functions for radio control operation remain operative.
Quick start
This “screen off” can quick start next startup. This is convenient when
turning on and off frequently. No RF output at “screen off”. Also, there is no
screen display. However, the battery is consumed because the internal circuit
is activated.
Be sure to turn off the receiver first.
HOME/EXIT
While holding down the HOME / EXIT button, turn off the power switch.
Screen OFF
No RF output Screen off mode.

Link procedure (T32MZ-WC R7208SB)
Each transmitter and each model data has an individually assigned, unique ID
code. In order to start operation, the receiver must be linked with the ID
code of the transmitter to which it is being paired. Once the link is made,
the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary
unless the receiver is to be used with another transmitter. When you purchase
additional R7208SB receivers, and when adding new model data, this procedure
is necessary; otherwise the receiver will not work.
Linkingmethod(T32MZ-WC R7208SB) 1. Bring the receiver to be linked to within
50 cm of
the transmitter.
Within 50 cm
2. Transmitter in link mode.
HOMEScreen
Link mode
Rx ON
5. If linking is successful, the receiver LED changes from red to green, the
link mode ends, and the receiver ID code is displayed.
6. If linking fails, an error message is displayed. Bring the transmitter
closer to the receiver and repeat the procedure above from step 2.
- Do not perform the linking operation when the drive motor is connected or the engine is running.
- When you use two receivers, please be sure to setup a “primary” and “secondary” in the “dual” mode.
- Since two sets of receivers cannot be individually recognized without using a “primary” and “secondary” setup, it is impossible to receive telemetry data correctly.
- You must link one receiver at a time. If both power supplies to the receivers are switched on simultaneously, data is received incorrectly by the transmitter.
- A telemetry function cannot be used for the 2nd receiver.
*Only FASSTest26CH can be linked with 3 receivers. In that case, select “Triple”. - Link is required when a system type is changed.
- Link is required when a new model is made from a model selection.
3. The transmitter emits a chime sound and enters the link mode.
4. The receiver power is immediately turned on. About 2 seconds after the
power is turned on the receiver enters the linking state. (Receiver linking
time is about 1 second).

WARNING
Donotperformthelinkingoperationwhenthedrivemotor

acceleration of the engine is
extremely dangerous. Oncethelinkoperationiscomplete,pleasecheckthatyour

Checkoperationsufficientlybeforeflyingafterlinking.
If the same receiver is sending in the vicinity, there is the danger that the
transmitter may be linked with that receiver.

In the system types (FASSTest, T-FHSS) compatible with the model ID function, a unique ID number (model ID) is set to each model data. Linking with a receiver stores the model ID of the model data in that receiver. The receiver operates only when it receives radio waves transmitted using model data that matches the stored model ID. As a result, the receiver does not operate even if model data of an unintended setting is used by mistake, so it is possible to prevent a malfunction due to a model selection mistake.
If you want to use different model data from the model data that you have been
using, link again.
Model ID feature is enabled only if the system type is FASSTest or T-FHSS.
Please note that model ID function can not be used on other systems.
For safety reasons, model ID function can not be disabled.
Model data that can be stored in internal memory is up to 250 models.
Model ID is automatically set when copying or adding model data.
WhenusingR3004SB
When using the R3004SB, set “Receiver” in the system type screen T-FHSS mode
setting to [R3004SB]. When using other T-FHSS compatible receivers, set
“Receiver” to [Normal].
R3004SB receiver does not support model ID function.
