Futaba 10C Radio Setup Videos

[CC RIDER]

Bob,
is there a possibility of doing a condensed version of pitch and throtle curve 101 with the 7 point curve of the 10c. Maybe just some basic starting point numbers for normal and Idle 1??

Sure but it will come later when I do a setup on the Knight 3D.

Dear all,

I wanted to purchase PCM/FM Transmitter, since 2.4Ghz receiver are bloody expensive.

10C Is one of my option. Can I use sensitize PCM module like my friends use on his 9c, combine with 6ch (single conversion).


Thank's

if i understand what you are you are asking, you can use the following 72mhz module with the 10c. it should be the same as the one in the 9c. and yes you can use any of futaba's 72mhz fm or pcm receivers with it.

Hi Bob,
Thank you for doing this Video Series. I just received my Futaba 10C and it is one of my first. Hope to see more Videos from you.
BTW Thanks to J Anderson, Davor, Gutaaaooo, CC RIDER and GrandRC.com for making this happen.

I have gotten a little behind... real job and all.... I have basic menu done just gotta get it compressed and uploaded. Plan to shoot advanced stuff tonight or tomorrow night. Either way stuff will be showing up this week!

Cant wait to see more of the Vid's Bob's vid's are always easy to follow.

[Finless]

Wooo hooo! Compressing video now. Basic menus (with a few exceptions) will be posted tonight. 3 vids will be posted in a few hours. Basic page 1, and basic page 2 parts 1 and 2.

I have to say this has been very challenging for me to do! Seriously you all... if you see something I missed or whatever... Let me know and I will cover it in a follow up videos.

Needless to say there is LOTS to cover let alone setting up a REAL model with the radio (which I am looking forward too!)

Well I don't suppose anyone else would - got to it as the batteries were smoking and before the garage caught fire.

Thanks Bob for anticipating my requirements with your excellent videos, again.

My question now is can I buy a Futaba 10C in Singapore and operate it in UK, with a UK bought TM7 2.4 module?

I happen to be going to Singapore in the next week, and the melted Transmitter I have looks very sad. I guess for any RX bought in Singapore the recharger will not work in UK, different mains plugs probably, but any other problem, frequency compatibility that I should be particularly worried about?

Anyone know a good dealer in Singapore?

Hope this is the right forum for this question, apologies if not?

Regards, Phil

I cant answer that question as I just don't know! I would post this question in the main forum about RF and power compatibility between Asia and UK.

Hmmm setting the timer on the throttle hold switch .... love that feature.... not that i EVER forget to turn my timer on

[Finless]

Only thing is if you practice a lot of autos your will be starting and stopping the timer. Not that big a deal I guess because for electric, the motor is off when autoing anyway. Nitro it is idling but also not a big deal.

But I prefer the throttle stick for nitros for sure but also electric. When you see my video on Logic Switch you will see how to make it come on with idle up and keeping it from shutting off at low stick or hold.

in any case the timer can be setup to start in many different ways using the logic switch function!

Bob any chance you will be covering the futaba rx ?

[r1driver]

Great video's, the common denominator of all the stuff I purchased over the last weeks is the fact that Bob made a video about it. ;-)
Judging from all the feedback, more people seem to do that.

By the time I heard he was gonna do a video on the 10C I bought one. The only things missing are a battery , 2 or so balancer cables for TP210, the solder station (back order), a training gear and a lot of practise......

Paul.

I have also started to look for a place to fly without being disturbed OR being ridiculed for hovering 40 cm off the ground for 5 minutes.... lol
....that is if my first flight lasts 5 minutes ...

Great video's Bob....
Thx, I have the 10c for 2 months now and I find it great.
I have my throttle hold on switch "G" and that switch also activate my timers.
I set 1 timer on 7min and the 2nd timer on 8min. (maybe a tip)

Hey Bob, great job so far on the videos.

I have had this radio since this past summer, and i noticed a few tricks you may not have figured out yet. when you are in the sub trim/end point/DR/EXP menus, when you are adjusting the values, if you push and hold the dial, it will reset the value to default. pretty nice if you want to quickly remove a value. also, on the main screen you can use the cursor button to scroll up through your timers and again push the dial to reset the timer.

Keep up the good work!
