INTRODUCTION TO THE T7F-2.4GHz SYSTEM IMPORTANT!: Always turn on the transmitter first, then the receiver. When turning off the system, always turn off the receiver first. The object is never to have the receiver on by itself. Otherwise, the servos or control surfaces could be damaged, or in the case of electric-powered models, the motor may unexpectedly turn on causing severe injury. Transmitter ACRO mode: External switches operate dual rates (D/R), landing gear, and trainer cord or buddy-box capabilities. Programming features include servo reversing and E.P.A on all channels, dual rates, exponentials and programmable mixing. Additionally, any one of four, factory-set, preprogrammed wing-type mixers including flaperon, and V-tail, elevon mixing may be selected. HELI mode: Dual rate (D/R), Idle up, Throttle hold, and Gyro sense can be operated by switch. Two different gyro senses can be set with RadioLink GY100 Gyro on gyro function of this transmitter. Programming features include servo reversing and E.P.A on all channels, dual rates, exponentials, throttle curve, pitch curve, throttle hold, and pit to rudder mixing(revo). Additionally, any one of two, factory-set, preprogrammed swashplate type mixers, including three servo type 3-S, may be selected. Transmitter controls The diagram and explanations briefly describe the functions of the RadioLink T7F-2.4GHz transmitter. Full instructions on how to operate the controls are provided beginning on page 11. Mode 1:Throttle on the right. Mode 2:Throttle on the left. (More on flight modes on page 28) CH.7Auxiliary channel Antenna Liquid-crystal display screen(lcd) Carrying handle A:Gear switch(ch.5) H:Gyro switch(ch.5) Aileron Elevator&Rudder dual rate switch A:Flap switch(ch.6) H:Throttle hold switch Traner switch Power indicator LED Idle-up switch Elevator trim lever (Mode 2) Throttle trim lever (Mode 1) Throttle trim lever(mode 2) Elevator trim switc(mode 1) Throttle/rudder control stick(mode 2) Elevator/rudder control stick(mode 1) Elevator/aileron control stick(mode 2 ) Throttle/aileron control stick(mode 1) Neck strap hook Aileron trim lever SELECT key POWER switch MODE key DATA - key Rudder trim lever MODE key DATA + key DESCRIPTIONS: Aileron, Elevator and Rudder dual rate switch Use this switch to flip between two aileron, elevator and rudder control throw settings. The throws can be set up however you prefer, but generally, when the switch is up the throws are greater ( high rate ) and when the switch is down the throws are less ( low rate ). This switch also flips between exponential rates (if used). A:Flap switch/channel 6 - This switch operates the servo connected to channel 6 in the receiver. If your model has flaps, this is the control used to operate them. 4

H:Throttle - hold switch - This switch operates to hold the engine in the idling position and disengage it from the Throttle Stick. It is commonly use to practice auto-rotation. Neck strap hook - Mounting point for optional neck strap. Aileron/elevator control stick - Operates the servos connected to channel 1 (aileron) and channel 2 (elevator) in the receiver. Trim levers (all) - Used to shift the neutral or center position of each servo as labeled in the diagram. Once either trim lever is operated, the trim position is displayed on the LCD screen. Also once either edit key is operated, all trim positions are displayed sequentially on the LCD screen. NOTE: The throttle trim lever is intended for fine tuning the throttle servo when the engine is at idle. Throttle trim does not affect the throttle servo when the throttle control stick is all the way up (so idle r.p.m. can be adjusted without affecting throttle settings through the rest of the stick movement). Charging jack - Port for charging the transmitter batteries. POWER switch-power on/power off DATA + or - key - Used to change the values of the various functions displayed on the LCD screen Liquid - crystal display screen (LCD) - Displays programming modes and values entered. MODE or key - Used to scroll through and display the different functions. Press MODE key to scroll to previous function menu. Press MODE key to scroll to next function menu SELECT key - Used to scroll the sub-menu for the current function. Throttle/rudder control stick - Operates the servos connected to channel 3 (throttle) and channel 4 (rudder) in the receiver. Trainer switch - Operates the trainer functions. To operate as a trainer switch the transmitter must be connected to another transmitter via. a trainer cord (available separately). Idle - up switch - This switch operates to change the fight condition which sets the throttle curve and pitch curve of mid air maneuvers (rolls, loops, stall turns) and 3D flight. A:Retractable landing gear switch/channel 5 - Switch operates the servo connected to channel 5 in the receiver. If your model has retractable landing gear, this is the control used to extend and retract the gear. H:Gyro switch/channel 5 - You can connect the sense adjust connector to channel 5 of the receiver to operate the gyro, which has two different senses. Also if you use the RadioLink GY100 Gyro, two different gyro sense settings on the gyro function in this transmitter can be called by this switch. Antenna - Radiates signals to the receiver. NEVER point at the model when flying! 5

PROGRAMMING THE T7F-2.4GHz RADIO Anytime you wish to view or change any of the current settings in the transmitter, the programming mode must first be entered by, of course, turning on the power, then by pressing the MODE and keys simultaneously and holding them down for one second. Once in the program the MODE or key will be used to scroll through each of the functions (Model type ACRO: model select/ data reset/ model type select/ model name, reversing, dual rates/ exponentials, end point adjustments, trim, normal throttle curve,programmable mix 1,programmable mix 2, flaperon mixing, flap trim, v-tail mixing, elevon mixing and auxiliary function. Model type HELI: model select/ data reset/ model type select/ model name, reversing, dual rates/ exponentials, end point adjustments, trim, normal throttle curve, normal pitch curve, idle-up throttle curve, idle-up pitch curve, throttle hold, revolution mixing, gyro sensitivity, swash-throttle mixing/ swashplate types and auxiliary function.) and the SELECT key will be used to scroll the sub-menu for the current function. When a data change is actually required the DATA + and - key will be used to increase or decrease the value of the item displayed, thus making the change. You can return to the home screen (where the model name and battery voltage is displayed) by pressing the MODE and keys simultaneously and holding them down for one second. Note: The functions are listed and described in the order that they appear in the transmitter. Read all the way through the programming instructions before setting up your model (if you won't be using any of the mixing functions for a while you can read those instructions when ready). Refer to the FLOW CHART on page 25(ACRO) or page 26(HELI) as well. Model Select / Data Reset / Model Type Select / Model Name MODL Model select function To select model memory: 1.Access the Model Select function in the programming mode (by pressing the MODE and keys simultaneously and holding them down for one second). The number for the current, active model will be blinking. 2.To activate a different model memory press the DATA + or - key until the desired model number appears. 3.Now the model has been selected. All programming inputs from this point forward will affect only the model number on the screen (until another model number is selected). REST Data reset function All the data for any model memory can be reset to the original factory defaults. Often this function is done to get a fresh start and clear the memory before inputting new model settings. To reset data: 1.Access the Model Select function in the programming mode (by pressing the MODE and keys simultaneously and holding them down for one second). To select the model memory you wish to reset press the DATA + or - key until the desired model number appears. 2.Once the desired model number is displayed on the screen, press the SELECT key twice. A REST will appear on the screen. 3.Press DATA + or - key for about 2 seconds to clear and reset the memory. CLR blinks first, and then it stops blinking with a sound. Now the model data is reset to the initial setting that is the default value set at the factory. The existing modulation and swashplate type settings are not reset. If the power switch is turned off while reset is underway, the data may not be reset. CAUTION: Resetting the current model memory will permanently erase ALL programming information for that model. The data cannot be recovered (unless you recorded it on a Model Data Recording Sheet in the back of this manual). Do not reset the model unless you are certain you want to clear-out that memory and start from scratch. When actually setting up a model you should have the model in front of you with the power on so you can actually see the effects of your programming inputs and measure the control throws. 11

ACRO/HELI Model type select function The Model type select function is used to select the ACRO or HELI mode of model type. ACRO: Powered aircraft memory type (with multiple wing and tail configurations. See Wing mixing type selection for further information,p16) HELI: Helicopter memory type (with two helicopter swashplate type. See Swashplate types selection for further information,p23) CAUTION: Before doing anything else to set up your aircraft, first you must decide Model type (include wing mixing type or swashplate type) best fits this particular aircraft. To select model type: 1.Access the Model Select function in the programming mode (by pressing the MODE and keys simultaneously and holding them down for one second). To select the model memory, select model type, press the DATA + or - key until the desired model number appears. 2.Press SELECT key after seeing on the screen the model memory where you want to select model type. Then you will see ACRO and HL or HELI and AC on the screen. 3.To change model type, press the DATA + or - key and hold it down for about two seconds. HL and AC blinks first, and then it stops blinking with a sound. The current model type ACRO or HELI is displayed. Model name function Assign a name to the model memory. By giving each model a name that is immediately recognizable, you can quickly select the correct model, and minimize the chance of flying wrong model memory that could lead to a crash. To assign a name 1.Access the Model Select function in the programming mode (by pressing the MODE and keys simultaneously and holding them down for one second). To select the model number you wish to change, press the DATA + or - key until the desired model number appears.. 2.Press SELECT key three times after seeing on the screen the model memory where you want to set the model name. Then you will see the model name on the screen. 3.Choose a character for the first digit by using DATA + or - key. Then move to the next digit by pressing the SELECT key and choose a character in the same way. Continue choosing characters for the third and fourth digits. You can use up to four characters for the name. REVR Servo Reversing The servo reversing function is used to change the direction that a servo responds to a control input from the transmitter (stick or switch). After using the reversing function, check all the controls on the model to be certain they are operating in the correct direction and that you did not inadvertently reverse a servo other than the one intended. Reversing the wrong servo (and not checking the response of the controls before each flight) may be the most common cause of a crash! To reverse a servo: 1.Enter the programming mode and use the MODE or key to access the REVR function. 2.Use the SELECT key to select the channel you wish to reverse. 3.Press the DATA - key to reverse the servo (REV), or press the DATA + key to make the servo operate normally (NOR). The arrow will indicate the condition of the servo (normal or reversed). 4.Use the SELECT key to display other channels to be reversed 12

N-TH Normal throttle curve function(acro) Used to set throttle curve for normal flight. 5-point throttle curve can be adjusted from 0-100 each point. This function is used to coordinate 1,2.4 channel to achieve some aerobatics, or to adjust the relative angular position between the amount of throttle and the throttle control stick. The starting point of different kinds of the motor and ESC can also be adjusted by N-TH curve function. To set the normal throttle curve: 1. Enter the programming mode and use the MODE or key to access the N-TH function. Throttle stick position number will appear on left side of display and symbol will be flashing. 2. Use SELECT key to select the desire curve point. Point 1 is shown initially which is throttle stick all the way downward (slow) position. Point 5 is throttle stick all the way upward (hi) position. 3. Press DATA + or - key to set the servo position. 4. Use SELECT key to set other points in same manner. PMIX1/2 Programmable Mixer 1/2 (ACRO only) Unlike the wing mixing function (explained later) where the channels to be mixed are factory-set, the T7F-2.4GHz also contains two programmable mix where you, the pilot determine the channels to be mixed. This could be used to correct unwanted flight tendencies (by mixing rudder to aileron, or aileron to rudder for example). To set up a programmable mix: 1. Enter the programming mode. Access the PMIX screen with the MODE or key. 2.Press the DATA + key. This will cause the flashing INH display to change to a flashing ON display. 3.Press SELECT key twice to call the screen for selecting channels to control MAS (Master) mixing. Then select the channel by pushing DATA + or - key. Channel 1 (aileron) in this figure is assigned to the master. 4.Press SELECT key three times to call the screen for selecting channels to control SLV (Slave) mixing. Then select the channel by pushing DATA + or - key. Channel 4 (rudder) in this figure is assigned to the slave. 15

2. Enter the programming mode. Access the ELVN screen with the MODE or key. You cannot set Elevon mixing when Flaperon or V-TL mixing has already been set. In order to enable Elevon mixing, you first need to cancel both Flaperon and V-tail mixing. 3. Press the DATA + key. This will cause the flashing INH display to change to a flashing ON display. Now the mixing is on. 4. Next you set the left wing to channel 1 (aileron) setting. Press the SELECT key to display the CH1 and flashing sign. Use the DATA + key to set the percentage of elevator travel rate from -100 to +100 5. Next you set the right wing to channel 2 (elevator) setting. Press the SELECT key to display the CH2 and flashing sign. Use the DATA + key to set the percentage of rudder travel rate from -100 to +100 6. Once this mix has been activated, move the servos to their full extremes to make certain they are not overdriving the controls. If necessary, adjust the linkages to achieve the correct control throws. AUX 7-channel(CH7) auxiliary function The 7-channel(CH7) is a switch used for auxiliary function,such as open or close a dropping cabin,switch on or switch off the control panel of smoke releasing etc. To set up AUX: Enter the programming mode. Access the AUX screen with the MODE or key. Press MODE key can access directly. 1.The 7-channel(CH7) switch push up. The percentage value can be set from+100 to -100 by pressing DATA - key,and the arm of servo moves from 0º to 60º proportionally. 2.The 7-channel(CH7) switch push down. The percentage value can be set from-100 to +100 by pressing DATA + key,and the arm of servo moves from 60º to 0º proportionally. 3.Push up the 7-channel(CH7) switch and set the percentage value to be -100,then push down the 7-channel(CH7) switch and set the percentage value to be +100, the direction that a servo responds to a control input from the transmitter (stick or switch)would be reversed. 19

REVO Pitch-rudder mixing function (HELI only) This mix adds rudder in conjunction with pitch. This helps compensate for rotation of the helicopter caused by the increased engine torque. (Never use revo. mixing with a heading-hold/avcs gyro which is in heading hold/avcs mode. However, revo. mixing is still used when a heading-hold/avcs gyro is in normal mode.) To set the REVO mixing: 1. Enter the programming mode and use the MODE or key to access the REVO function. 2. Press the DATA + key. This will cause the flashing INH display to change to a flashing ON display. Now the REVO function is on. 3. Press the SELECT key once. This will cause the flashing symbol on the display. It can set mixing amount on throttle stick hi side and low side separately. When you move the throttle stick to the low side from neutral, the arrow indicates down direction. Then press DATA + or - key to set the mixing amount of the low side. When you move the throttle stick to the high side from neutral, the arrow indicates up direction. Then press DATA + or - key to set the mixing amount of the hi side. GYRO Gyro mixing function (HELI only) GYROS : Using electronics to take some of the complexity out of setups and flight. What is a gyro? A gyroscope is an electronic unit that senses rotational movement and corrects for it. For example, if the wind blows your helicopter's tail to the left, a gyro will sense that motion (and confirm that no input was given) and will correct for it. How does it help in helicopter setup? A good gyro will totally eliminate the need for revo. mixing. The gyro will sense and correct the unwanted motion for you, so you don' t have to spend time to get a complex curve operating properly. 5SED WITH RUDDER YAW AXIS Gyro sensor kinds: There are many different kinds of gyros. Early gyros were mechanical, with a spinning drum similar to a child's gyroscope toy. The next generation utilized a special type of crystal, called piezoelectric, which sensed the motion and provided an electrical pulse. The finest gyros at the time of this writing are SMM technology. These silicone micro machines, or computer chips, sense the motion. SMM is far more accurate and less susceptible to inaccuracies caused by temperature changes, etc. Choosing the right gyro for your skills, your helicopter, and your budget: Mechanical: some are still available. They are very challenging to set up and not as reliable as piezo or SMM. Non-Heading-Hold Piezo: these are now inexpensive gyros that are reliable and easy to set up. Some have dual rates and remote gain control to adjust sensitivity in flight. Lack heading-hold capabilities for precision flying. Heading-Hold Piezo: Until recently, the cream of the crop. Expensive, and more complex to set up. Adds GPS-like heading recognition. Exhibits minor difficulties with temperature drift (position setting varying with unit's temperature). Heading-Hold SMM: 21st Century gyro technology. Computer chip technology. Expensive, easier set up, higher durability. Significant decrease in temperature sensitivity. Many include frame rate settings to allow faster response when using specialized digital servos. Examples: RadioLink GY-100: Simpler set up. Ideal for learning aerobatics through 3D 22

To select the swashplate types: 1. Enter the programming mode and use the MODE or key to access the SWSH function. 2. To select swashplate type press the DATA + or - key for about two seconds. When you are changing swashplate type to 1-S or 3-S, the 1-S or 3-S on the display flashes slow, becomes rapid, and then returns slow flashing with confirmation sound. 3. Now set the swashplate type. To set the swash AFR: This function can be used only when you select the 3-S swashplate type. There is no swash AFR setting with 1-S type. This swash AFR function is for changing the direction and amount of servo movement on aileron, elevator, and pitch. At first, set the linkage and servo horn length on aileron, elevator, and pitch servos by following the instruction manual that comes with the model. Basically EPA (see page 13) is set near 100 with these three servos. Set the servo reverse function (see page 12) so that the swashplate keeps horizontal and moves in the correct direction up and down when you operate pitch control (up and down throttle stick). 1.Enter the programming mode and use the MODE or key to access the SWSH function. 2. Swashplate types, Confirm 3-S type is selected. If 3-S type is not selected, please see To select the swashplate types and set. 3. Use SELECT key to select the channel you wanted to set. Aileron channel CHA is displayed at first and is flashing. Move the aileron stick left and right to set the direction and amount of movement on the aileron servo by pressing DATA + or - key. Aileron movement can be adjusted from -100 to +100. 4. Select other channels (elevator and pitch) by SELECT key to set the direction and amount of servo movement in same manner as aileron channel setting. CHE is elevator and CHP is pitch channel on the Display. AUX 7-channel(CH7) auxiliary function The 7-channel(CH7) is a switch used for auxiliary function,such as open or close a dropping cabin,switch on or switch off the control panel of smoke releasing etc. To set up AUX: Enter the programming mode. Access the AUX screen with the MODE or key. Press MODE key can access directly. 1.The 7-channel(CH7) switch push up. The percentage value can be set from+100 to -100 by pressing DATA - key,and the arm of servo moves from 0º to 60º proportionally. 2.The 7-channel(CH7) switch push down. The percentage value can be set from-100 to +100 by pressing DATA + key,and the arm of servo moves from 60º to 0º proportionally. 3.Push up the 7-channel(CH7) switch and set the percentage value to be -100,then push down the 7-channel(CH7) switch and set the percentage value to be +100, the direction that a servo responds to a control input from the transmitter (stick or switch)would be reversed. 24

Adjustable-height control sticks The control stick height is adjustable to make the transmitter more comfortable to hold and operate. To adjust the height,firstly use the 3mm inner hexangular wrench (C) to unlock screw (A) counterclockwise. Having got desired control stick height through turn the piece (B) counterclockwise or clockwise, then lock screw (A) clockwise. C A B Changing the T7F-2.4GHz stick mode The transmitter may be operated in four different stick modes (1, 2, 3 & 4). The modes determine the functions that will be operated by control sticks. Currently, the transmitter is in mode 2 and should be left in mode 2 unless you are an experienced flyer and have learned to fly in a different mode. In mode 2, the right control stick operates the aileron and elevator and the left stick operates the rudder and throttle. This is how 99 of Americans fly their models. To change the mode, simultaneously depress the MODE and keys, then turn on the power. The current mode will appear on the LCD screen. Press the DATA + or - key to change the mode. If a mode is selected that moves the throttle control to the right stick, the throttle detent mechanism will have to be moved as well. Please visit our website (http://www. radiolink.com.cn/doce/download-default.html) and download the file of Manual for changing Mode for 6CH radio for operation details. FLIGHT PREPARATION Flight preparation is to be done at the flying field. If you are an inexperienced pilot, be certain your flight instructor performs these following checks with you. Check the controls 1. Mount the wing to the fuselage. Turn on the transmitter, then the receiver (remember to do this in reverse order when turning off the system). Be certain the correct model memory matching the model you will be flying is the one on the LCD screen. 2. Operate and observe the controls. Look for inadvertent movement and listen for abnormal servo sounds. If problems are noted, correct them before flying. Look for binding pushrods or servo arms or pushrods that interfere with each other. 3. One at a time, operate each control on the airplane using the sticks on the transmitter to make certain each control is responding correctly. This must be done before every flight. (There are several types of malfunctions that can be discovered by performing this elementary task, thus saving your model!) Do not fly in the rain! Moisture may enter the transmitter through the antenna or stick openings and cause erratic operation or loss of control. If you must fly in wet weather during a contest, be sure to cover the transmitter with a plastic bag or other waterproof cover. MODEL DATA RECORDING SHEET After finalizing the programming for each model, fill out the values and settings in the Model Data Recording Sheets in the back of the manual. The data sheets will serve as a backup in case a program is ever lost or inadvertently reset, or in case you have to intentionally reset a program to make room for another model. Make additional copies before filling out the sheets. 28
