INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Futaba

6EXHP digital proportional R/C helicopter system. If this is your first “computer” radio,

rest assured that it is designed to make initial setup and field-tuning of your helicopter easier and more accurate than would be

if using a “non-computer” radio. Although this is a

beginner or sport system with the requirements of those flyers in mind, in

order to make the best use of your Futaba 6EXHP and to operate it safely,

you must carefully read all of the instructions.

Suggestion: If, while reading the instructions, you are unclear of some of the procedures or functions and become “stuck,”

continue to read on anyway. Often, the function or procedure will be explained again later in a different way providing another

perspective from which to understand it. Another suggestion is to connect the battery, switch and servos to the receiver and

actually operate the radio on your workbench as you make programming changes. Then, you’ll be able to see the effects of

your programming inputs.
