4.1 Instal·lació de la bateria

1. Localitzeu el compartiment de la bateria a la part posterior del transmissor.
2. Obriu la tapa del compartiment de la bateria.
3. Introduïu 6 piles AA d'1.5 V, assegurant-vos de la polaritat correcta (+/-).
4. Tanqueu bé la tapa del compartiment de la bateria.

4.2 Binding with RC Model

The XK X6 Transmitter uses the 2.4GHz FUTABA S-FHSS communication protocol. To operate your RC model, you must first bind the transmitter to the receiver in your model. Refer to your specific RC helicopter or airplane model's manual for detailed binding instructions, as the process may vary slightly between models. Generally, the steps involve:

1. Ensure both the transmitter and the RC model's receiver are powered off.
2. Place the RC model in binding mode (usually by pressing a bind button on the receiver while powering it on).
3. Power on the XK X6 Transmitter while holding a specific button (refer to your model's manual for the exact button, if any, or simply power on).
4. Wait for the binding process to complete, indicated by a solid light on the receiver.
5. Once bound, power cycle both the transmitter and the model to confirm the connection.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

Before operating your RC model, ensure the transmitter is fully charged (if using rechargeable AAs) or has fresh batteries, and that it is properly bound to your model.

5.1 Engegada/apagada

• To power on: Slide the Power Switch to the 'ON' position. The LED screen will illuminate.
• To power off: Slide the Power Switch to the 'OFF' position.

5.2 modes de control

The XK X6 Transmitter supports different control modes, primarily Mode 1 (Right Throttle) and Mode 2 (Left Throttle). The default mode is typically Mode 2. Ensure your transmitter's mode matches your flying preference and model configuration.

• Mode 2 (Left Throttle):
  • Left Stick: Throttle (up/down), Rudder (left/right)
  • Right Stick: Elevator (up/down), Aileron (left/right)
• Mode 1 (Right Throttle):
  • Left Stick: Elevator (up/down), Aileron (left/right)
  • Right Stick: Throttle (up/down), Rudder (left/right)

5.3 Using Switches and Trims

• 6CH/IDLE Switch: Use for channel 6 functions or to engage idle-up mode for advanced maneuvers (helicopters).
• 6G/3D Switch: Select 6G mode for stable flight (gyro-assisted) or 3D mode for acrobatic flight without gyro assistance.
• TH. HOLD Switch: Activates Throttle Hold, cutting power to the motor/engine, useful for safety or auto-rotation landings.
• High/Low Rudder: Adjusts the sensitivity (dual rates) of the rudder control.
• Trim Levers: Use the Throttle, Rudder, Elevator, and Aileron trim levers to fine-tune the neutral position of your controls, correcting for any drift during flight.

5.4 Navegació de menús

Use the Menu, Back, and Navigation/Confirm (PUSH) buttons to access and adjust settings on the LED screen. Refer to your model's specific manual for detailed menu options and programming.

6. Manteniment

• Neteja: Wipe the transmitter with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the transmitter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries if storing for extended periods to prevent leakage.
• Cura de la bateria: Replace AA batteries when low. If using rechargeable batteries, follow the manufacturer's charging guidelines.
• Inspecció: Periodically check all switches, sticks, and the antenna for any signs of damage or wear.

7. Solució De Problemes

• Sense energia:
  • Check if batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient charge.
  • Ensure the power switch is fully in the 'ON' position.
• No Connection to Model (Not Binding):
  • Ensure both transmitter and receiver are in binding mode as per your model's manual.
  • Verify that the transmitter is compatible with your model's receiver (FUTABA S-FHSS protocol).
  • Move closer to the model during the binding process.
• Control erràtic:
  • Comproveu si hi ha interferències d'altres dispositius de 2.4 GHz.
  • Ensure the antenna is fully extended and undamaged.
  • Verify battery levels in both transmitter and model.
• Problemes de compatibilitat:
  • The XK X6 Transmitter uses the FUTABA S-FHSS protocol. It is not compatible with other protocols like Flysky. Always ensure your RC model's receiver supports FUTABA S-FHSS.

8. Consells d'usuari

• Protocol Awareness: Always confirm that your RC model's receiver is compatible with the FUTABA S-FHSS protocol used by the XK X6 transmitter. Attempting to bind with incompatible systems (e.g., Flysky) will not work.
• Gestió de la bateria: Keep a spare set of AA batteries handy, especially for longer flying sessions, as the transmitter relies on them for power.
• Practice with Trims: Spend time understanding and using the trim levers to achieve stable flight, especially after initial setup or repairs.

9. Informació de seguretat

⚠ ADVERTIMENT:
