10. serVO directiOn (reVerse)

This function can be used to reverse the direction of rotation of
the servo output shaft; it is available for each servo separate-
ly. This means that it is not necessary to consider the servos'
direction of rotation when installing them in the model. You can
simply fit them in the most convenient way, in order to obtain
a straight pushrod linkage, for example, and then select the
appropriate direction of rotation electronically.
On the lower part of the
transmitter's front panel you will
find four slide-switches which can
be used to reverse the direction
of rotation of any or all of the ser-
vos. The picture alongside shows
all the switches set to the normal direction of servo rotation
(NOR). Moving any slide-switch to the opposite end-point (REV)
reverses the direction of rotation of the corresponding servo.
Move the switches very carefully, using a small screwdriver.

11. trainer mOde

Trainer mode is very useful when a beginner to modelling is
learning the art of controlling a model by radio. In this mode the
teacher, or tutor, has control of the model during the difficult
take-off / launch and landing phases, but is able to transfer con-
trol to the pupil, or trainee, during the flight, when the model is
in a safe position. He does this by operating the Trainer button
on his transmitter.
If during the flight the model gets into a dangerous situation
or critical attitude, the teacher lets go of the Trainer button or
switch, and thereby regains control of the model. This method
is ideal for learning the skills of controlling a model, as the pupil
can concentrate on just one aspect of flying without having to
fear damage to the model, or even its total loss.
The T4YF transmitter is fitted with a Trainer socket as standard;
it is located on the back panel.
note:
The T4YF is purely a pupil transmitter. It cannot be operated
in Trainer mode in conjunction with another T4YF transmitter.
11.1 pupil mOde With Other rOBBe-futaBa trans-
mitters
The T4YF transmitter can only be used as a pupil unit in com-
bination with another transmitter from the robbe-Futaba range.
The following points have to be taken into consideration:
T4YF as pupil transmitter
In its guise as pupil transmitter the T4YF can be very versatile
in use; the following special features are available depending on
the type of teacher transmitter and the version of the software
it contains:
• Teacher transmitter: FF-6, FF-7, F-14, FX-14, FC-16, FX-18,
FC-18 Junior, FC-18 V1 & 2, FC-28 V1 & 2, FC-18 V3 and V3
Plus (Version 3.0), FC-28 V3 (Version 3.0).
In this combination the T4YF can only be used as the pupil
transmitter if the model does not require any mixer functions
other than those provided by the T4YF (i.e. no mixers set up
at the teacher transmitter). If the teacher transmitter is a FC-18
or FC-28 it is possible to transfer control of individual channels,
whereas the other transmitters transfer all the channels simul-
taneously.
• Teacher transmitter: FF-8 Super, FF-9, FF-10, FC-18 V3 and
V3 Plus (Version 3.1 / 3.2), FC-28 V3 (Version 3.1 / 3.2).

These transmitter types do not require an "intelligent" pupil
transmitter with its own mixer functions.
When the pupil has control of the model, the mixer functions set
on the teacher transmitter are used.
In this case the T4YF can even be used as the pupil transmitter
in order to practise flying a model such as a helicopter. The
control functions can be transferred either individually or all
together.
If a FC-18, FC-28, T8-FG, T-10CP, T12Z, T-12FG, FX-30,
T14MZ or FX-40 transmitter is used, it is even possible to set up
combined operation, i.e. both transmitters have simultaneous
access to the model.

11.2 use With a flight simulatOr

To use the T4YF system to control a flight simulator you need
the adapter lead, No. 8239, which is available as an accessory.
This converts the Trainer socket to a 3.5 mm barrel socket,
which is generally used by flight simulators.
