FLYING SAFETY
WARNING
To ensure the safety of yourself and others, please observe the following precautions:
Have regular maintenance performed. Although your 10CG protects the model memories with non-volatile
EEPROM memory (which does not require periodic replacement) and not a battery, the transmitter still should
have regular checkups for wear and tear. We recommend sending your system to the Futaba Service Center

Also, damage to your transmitter may occur.
In order to maintain complete control of your aircraft it is important that it remains visible at all times. Flying
behind large objects such as buildings, grain bins, etc. is not suggested. Doing so may result in the reduction of the
quality of the radio frequency link to the model.

SWITCH ASSIGNMENT TABLE
• The factory default functions activated by the switches and knobs for a 10CAG Mode 2 transmitter are shown below.
• Most 10CG functions may be reassigned to non-default positions quickly and easily.
• Basic control assignments of channels 5-10 are quickly adjustable in
AUX-CH
(see p. 46). For example, the channel 5
servo, which defaults to SWITCH E for retract use, can easily be unassigned (NULL) to allow for easy use as a second
rudder servo in a mix, or to a slider or dial for bomb door or other control.
• Note that most functions need to be activated in the programming to operate.
• 10CAG Mode 1, 10CHG, and 10CG transmitter functions are similar but reverse certain switch commands. Always
check that you have the desired switch assignment for each function during set up.

RADIO INSTALLATION
Follow these guidelines to properly mount the servos, receiver and battery.
• Make certain the alignment tab on the battery, switch and servo connectors is oriented correctly and “keys” into the
corresponding notch in the receiver or connectors before plugging them in. When unplugging connectors, never pull on
the wires. Always pull on the plastic connector instead.
• If your aileron servo (or others) are too far away to plug into the receiver, use an aileron extension cord to extend the
length of the servo lead. Additional Futaba extension cords of varying lengths are available from your hobby dealer.
Always use an extension of the proper length. Avoid plugging multiple extensions together to attain your desired length.
If distance is greater than 18” or multiple or high current draw servos are being used, use Futaba Heavy-Duty servo
extensions.

failure.
• Note the small numbers (1, 2, 3, 4) molded into each arm on the Futaba 4-arm servo arms. The numbers
indicate how many degrees each arm is “off” from 90 degrees to correct for minute manufacturing
deviations from servo to servo.
To center the servos, connect them to the receiver and turn on the transmitter
and receiver. Center the trims on the transmitter, then find the arm that will be
perpendicular to the pushrod when placed on the servo.
After the servos are installed, operate each servo over its full travel and check that the pushrods and servo arms do not
bind or contact each other. Also make sure the controls do not require excess force to operate. If there is an objectionable
buzzing sound coming from a servo, there is probably too much resistance in the control. Find and correct the problem.
Even if there is no servo damage, excess battery drain will result.
• Use the mounting plateIURPWKHUHFHLYHURQRIIVZLWFKDVDWHPSODWHIRUWKHFXWRXWDQGVFUHZKROHV0RXQWWKHVZLWFK
on the side of the fuselage opposite the engine exhaust, and where it won’t be inadvertently turned on or off during
handling or storage. Be certain the switch moves without restriction and “snaps” from ON to OFF, and that the cutout
allows full motion of the switch in both directions.
• When you install the switch harness to the helicopter, please use the switch cover. Generally sandwich the frame between
the switch and switch cover and securely tighten the screws. Different models might require different installations. If so,
please follow the model's instruction manual.
Fasten about 5-10cm
from the servo outlet
so that the lead wire
is neat.
Slack in the lead wire.
• To prevent the servo lead wires from being broken by vibration during

slightly and fasten it at suitable points. In addition, periodically check the
wire during daily maintenance.

from the standard Futaba receiver. These receivers incorporate
two separate antennas into their design which enables them
to receive the radio frequency transmission at two different
locations.
Futaba's dual antenna diversity then seamlessly selects the best
signal reception between these antennas to ensure that there is no loss of signal.
• To obtain the best results of the diversity function, please refer to the following instructions:
1. The two antennas must be kept as straight as possible. Otherwise it will reduce
the effective range.
2. The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other.

and temperature extremes. For protection, wrap the receiver in foam rubber or other vibration-absorbing materials.
It is also a good idea to waterproof the receiver by placing it in a plastic bag and securing the open end of the bag with
a rubber band before wrapping it with foam rubber. If you accidentally get moisture or fuel inside the receiver, you may
experience intermittent operation or a crash. If in doubt, return the receiver to our service center for service.

WARNING
After the linking is done, please cycle receiver power and check if the receiver to be linked is really under the
control by the transmitter to be linked.
Do not perform the linking procedure with motor's main wire connected or with the engine operating as it may
result in serious injury.
Link Procedure (T10CG transmitter/R6008HS or R6014HS receiver):
Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start operation, the receiver must be linked with
the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link is made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and
no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used with another transmitter. When you purchase additional

WARNING & ERROR DISPLAYS
An alarm or error indication may appear on the display of your transmitter for a number of reasons, including when the
transmitter power switch is turned on, when the battery voltage is low, and several others. Each display has a unique sound
associated with it, as described below.
MODEL SELECTION ERROR:
Warning sound: 5 beeps (repeated 3 times)
The
MODEL SELECTION
warning is displayed when the transmitter attempts to load a model memory from a memory
module (optional CAMPac) that is not currently plugged into the transmitter. When this occurs, model No. 01 is
automatically loaded.
'RQRW À\ XQWLO WKHSURSHU PRGHOLVORDGHGLQWR PHPRU\ Reinsert the memory module,
and recall the desired setup using the model select function.
LOW BATTERY ERROR:
Warning sound: Continuous beep until transmitter is powered off.
The
LOW BATTERY
warning is displayed when the transmitter battery voltage drops below 8.5V.
Land your model as soon as possible before loss of control due to a dead battery.
MIXER ALERT WARNING:
Warning sound: 5 Beeps (repeated until problem resolved or overridden)
The
MIXER ALERT
warning is displayed to alert you whenever you turn on the transmitter with
any of the mixing switches active. This warning will disappear when the offending switch or
control is deactivated. Switches for which warnings will be issued at power-up are listed
below:
ACRO
:Throttle cut, idle-down, snap roll, airbrake
GLID
%XWWHUÀ\FRQGLWLRQV
HELI
:Throttle cut, throttle hold, idle-up
If turning a switch OFF does not stop the mixing warning: When the warning does not stop even when the mixing switch
indicated by the warning display on the screen is turned off, the functions described previously probably use the same
switch and the OFF direction setting is reversed. In short, one of the mixings described above is not in the OFF state.
In this case, reset the warning display by pressing CURSOR LEVER. Next, change one of the switch settings of the
duplicated mixings.
BACKUP ERROR:
Warning sound: 4 beeps (repeated continuously)
The
BACKUP ERROR
warning occurs when the transmitter memory is lost for any reason. If this occurs, all of the data will
be reset when the power is turned on again.
[Note] At this warning display, the transmitter transmits in
2.4G-10CH
mode even if the set-up mode is
2.4G-7CH
mode.
Do not fly when this message is displayed: all programming has been erased and is not
available. Return your transmitter to Futaba for service.
MEMORY MODULE INITIALIZE DISPLAY
This warning appears when an (optional) CAMPacPHPRU\PRGXOHLVXVHGLQWKHWUDQVPLWWHUIRUWKH¿UVWWLPH:KHQWKH
MODE BUTTON is pressed, initialization of the module begins, after which the memory module can be used. Once the
module is initialized, the display will not appear again.
The 10C CANNOT convert data from other radio types (i.e. 8U, 9Z). Installation of a CAMPac with data from another
radio type will result in reinitialization of the CAMPac and loss of all data.
RF ERROR:
Warning sound: A single long beep.
ÀDVKLQJ
The single beep lets you know that the RF output has stopped for any reason. The blue RF
light also goes out. Return your transmitter to Futaba for service.

A QUICK GUIDE: GETTING STARTED WITH A
BASIC
4-CHANNEL AIRCRAFT
This guide is intended to help you get acquainted with the radio, to give you a jump start on using your new radio, and to
give you some ideas and direction on how to do even more than you may have already considered. It follows our basic
format of all programming pages: a big picture overview of what we accomplish; a “by name” description of what we're
doing to help acquaint you with the radio; then a step-by-step instruction to leave out the mystery when setting up your
model.
For additional details on each function, see that function's section in this manual. The page numbers are indicated in the
goals column as a convenience to you.
See p.26 for a legend of symbols used.

Notes:
Any data in the model copied to will be written over and lost, including name,

To copy from one T10CG to another, use an optional
CAMPac. (Note: The
model may be flown directly off the CAMPac's memory, not requiring re-
copying into the 2nd transmitter. For more information on
CAMPacs, please
see p. 10.)

Data cannot be converted from 8U or 9Z memory types. If a CAMPac is installed into the T10CG that has data on it
from another radio type, it will have to be re-initialized which deletes all data.
Examples:
Create a new model that is similar to one you have already programmed.
Copy the current model data into another model memory as a backup or before experimenting with new settings.

Servo reversing (

REVERSE
is in the

For CCPM helicopters, be sure to read the section on

With the exception of CCPM helicopters, always complete your servo reversing prior to any other programming.
When using
ACRO
GLID
functions that control multiple servos, such as
FLAPERON
or

, it may be confusing to determine whether the servo needs
to be reversed or a setting in the function needs to be reversed. Refer to the

End Point of servo travel adjustment (
END POINT
, also called EPA): the most flexible version of travel adjustment
available. It independently adjusts each end of each individual servo’s travel, rather than one setting for the servo that
affects both directions. Again, for CCPM helicopters, be sure to see
SWASH AFR
(see p. 95) prior to adjusting end points.
Adjustability:
Can set each direction independently.
Ranges from 0% (no servo movement at all) to 140%. At a 100% setting, the
throw of the servo is approximately 40° for channels 1-4 and approximately
55° for channels 5-8.
Reducing the percentage settings reduces the total servo throw in that direction.
Examples:
Adjust the throttle high end to avoid binding at the carburetor, and low end to allow for proper carburetor closure.

Adjust the linkage or the
END POINT
? It is nearly always best to adjust your linkages to get as close as possible prior to
utilizing
END POINT
. The higher the
END POINT
setting, the better position accuracy and the more servo power available
at nearly any position (except if using digital servos). Higher
END POINT
values also mean longer travel time to reach the
desired position, as you are utilizing more of the servo's total travel. (For example, using 50%
END POINT
would give you
only half the steps of servo travel, meaning every click of trim has twice the effect and the servo gets there in half the
time).
end point (and moving the linkage) = torque, accuracy, but transit time to get there.
end point (instead of adjusting linkages) = travel time, but torque, accuracy.

Inversely proportional to THROTTLE STICK: provides a proportional increase in amount of airbrake action as
THROTTLE STICK is lowered (when SWITCH A (assignable) is in the down position). Includes selectable stick
position where airbrake begins. If you would like to have the airbrake be directly proportional to throttle stick, you will
need to reverse the THR-REV function. Note that this changes the throttle stick direction for all models. See page 38 for
instructions.

If

is active, then CH1 and CH7 may be independently adjusted.
Normally both ailerons are raised equally in
BUTTERFLY
, and the elevator motion is set to maintain trim when the ailerons
rise. Different amounts may be set for each aileron to correct for torque reactions and other unique characteristics of the
model.
Be sure you understand what dropping ailerons will do when in
BUTTERFLY
. Along with creating an enormous amount
of drag (desireble for spot landings), this also creates "wash-in", a higher angle of attack where the ailerons are, and
encourages tip stalling. If you are using this for aerobatic performance and not "sudden stops", consider raising the
