ANTENNA:

  The strongest signals are emitted at a 45 degree angle from the sides of the antenna.  Rotate and 

fold the antenna so that it's not pointing directly towards the model during flight.  Do not grab the antenna 
during operation as it may affect radio signal quality. 
 

HOME SCREEN 

The factory default screen and menus will be for airplanes.  See the next section for navigating and changing 
menus for model type and other functions. 
 

MENUS 

The TTX650 has three types of menus.   
 
The SYSTEM SETUP menu allows for setting basic operational functions for the radio itself.   
 
Selecting and managing the model memories, configuring the radio for the structure of the airplane or helicopter, 
etc. is done in the MODEL SETUP menu.  Most functions apply for both airplanes and helicopters.  Select functions 
are available for airplanes only or helicopters only. 
 
Setting various radio functions to control the model is done in the SETTINGS menu.  Some settings apply for both 
airplanes and helicopters.  Select settings are available for airplanes only or helicopters only. 
 

LCD, PROGRAMMING CONTROLS, MENU NAVIGATION 

The LCD contrast is adjustable for optimum viewing.  Six pushbuttons navigate the menus and settings.  Single 
button pushes will result in a single incremental adjustment on-screen.  Holding a button for a short time will 
result in slow scrolling of adjustments;  continued holding will result in fast adjustments. 
 
Left side buttons:   

SERVO 

Press any time to see the servo position screen shown below.  Indicators for certain channels will 

change depending on model type, wing type, etc.  Moving any Tx control will graphically be shown on this screen.  
When setting / adjusting mixes to determine if the mix is as desired, set the mix and then view this screen.  Move 
all controls to determine if the mix moves each respective channel as needed. 

CLEAR

 

Quickly resets certain values and settings back to factory defaults. 

ESC

 

Jumps back to the previous screen, and removes certain pop-up messages from the screen.
