The new 6EXP has been selected as Futaba’s first 2.4GHz aircraft/helicopter/boat & yacht system, and utilises the highly advanced FASST (Futaba Advanced Spread Spectrum Technology) system to give the ultimate in performance and control. Allowing switch on and go operation, and with amazing interference rejection, this set will become the standard by which all others are measured.
With this set there will be no more waiting for a frequency to become clear, and fellow fliers cannot accidentally shoot you down by mistakenly switching their set on when it is on the same frequency, significantly increasing safety and allowing more flying time at popular flying sites.
With the operating frequency changing every two milliseconds, the 2.4GHz FASST system is virtually invulnerable to interference. Dual antenna diversity selects the best signal from the two receiver aerials, so there is a solid RF link, no matter what the attitude of the model.
The tiny R606FS receiver weighs only 9.8g (7g without the case), but is a full range receiver that will operate in any installation from small to giant, allowing simple swaps between models.
Other features include Pre-Vision Packet Screening Technology that scans the incoming data, and applies sophisticated error correction techniques as well as Easy Link system which incorporates a unique IC code in the transmitter, which when linked with the R606FS receiver, ensures that only this particular receiver will accept commands from its paired transmitter
Standard Programming Functions :
Model Select — six model memory.
Model Type — select airplane or heli programming in one transmitter.
Servo Reversing — on all six channels.
Dual Rate/Exponential — for ailerons, elevator and rudder.
End Point Adjustment — fine-tunes servo throws on all six channels.
Digital Trim — stores trim settings for each model for aileron, elevator, rudder and throttle.
Fail Safe — a safety throttle setting in case of loss of transmitter signal.
Battery Fail Safe — moves the throttle to a preset position when the airborne pack reaches 3.8V.
Stick Mode — choose from Mode 1 through 4.
Range Checking — Power Down reduces transmitter output power for up to one minute, allowing range checking from 50 paces away.
Changeable Throttle Stick — select ratchet for airplanes or smooth for helis.
Adjustable Stick Length — choose the length that suits your flying style.
Can be used to buddy with other Futaba transmitters that have the square style trainer jack. Please note that connection to the round ‘DIN’ style trainer jack will cause malfunction.
Airplane-Specific Programming Functions:
Wing Mixing — for flaperon, flap trim, V-tail and elevon.
Trainer System — with the transmitter as either the master or student system. Compatible with other Futaba systems.
Throttle Cut — pre-programmed for safely shutting off the engine.
Programmable Mixing (1 & 2) — two different mixes allow any two channels to be combined.
Helicopter-Specific Programming Functions:
5-Point Normal and Idle Up Throttle/Pitch Curves.
Throttle Hold — for autorotation.
Revo (Revolution Mixing) — mixes rudder and pitch together.
Gyro Mixing — two gyro gain settings can be programmed and selected during flight.
Swash to Throttle Mixing — corrects slowing of the engine's speed caused by the swashplate.
Swashplate Types — choose from 1S (independent aileron, pitch and elevator servos linked to the swashplate), 3S (120° CCPM), or 3E (90° CCPM).
Swash AFR — Adjustable Function Rate, for use with 1S, 3S or 3E swash types.
