• Response direction: • Normal or reversed for all dials/trimmers, and switch 3. • Normal or alternate for switches 1 and 2. INTERACTION: • If multiples switches/dials/trims are assigned to do the same job, their settings are combined up to the limits of the function. For example, assigning steering trim to both DT1 and DL1 means moving either adjusts the trim from the current position up to the maximum available trim. (Total trim available is still the same, not doubled.) • Digital: Since the dials and trims are digital, their physical position does not matter to the model memory. If a dial or trim is bumped when both switches are off, no change is made to the position remembered in the memory. For example, turn on the display. Note the steering trim position shown on screen. Turn the display off. With the display off, press the digital trims. Now turn the display back on. Note that the trim has not changed. The same is true for the digital dials, meaning no more need to try to “store” or “set” the dial positions before changing model memories to avoid unintentional changes in your other models! DESIRED END RESULT:Create driver-specific setups for each car for easy adjustment of features on-the-fly. CAUTION: Be sure you know what each switch/dial/trim is doing prior to every operation. 35 GOAL: Assign idle-up to the push button switch on the radio’s handle (SW2 aka PS2), while using LV2menus. (If using LV3, select FUNC-SWfrom menu 2.) (If using LV1, first change level selection to LV2, p. 12.) Assign throttle acceleration forward side to grip dial 1 and brake side to grip dial 2. Adjust steps to 1% for very fine adjustments. Where Next: STEPS: Open and select menu 2. Select FUNC-SW. Select switch #2 (SW2 aka PS.2). Set function to idle-up. Reverse switch direction to have idle-up on unless button is held. Close function and menu. Open and select menu 2. Select FUNC-DIAL. For dial 1, select acceleration forward. Set step to 1%. Select dial 2, acceleration braking. Set step to 1%. Reverse dial direction so turning dial 2 backward increases braking side of acceleration, turning dial 1 forward increases throttle side acceleration. Close function and menu. INPUTS: to SW2. to IDLE-UP. to ALT. 9 times to ACC-F. to 1. 9 times to ACC-B. to 1. Use servo screen to see effectiveness of dial/switch changes (SERVO) (LV3): See p. 39. Set up throttle acceleration (TH-ACCEL): See p. 26. Set up ABS (ABS): See p. 24. Set up servo speed (ST-SPEED, TH-SPEED): See p. 23. Set up tilt mixing (BOAT-MODE) (LV3): See p. 43. Set up brake mixing (BRAKE-MIX) (LV3): See p. 42. Let’s do a dial setup now. 36 Direct Selection Menu Options DIRC-CALLLevelsLV2, LV3 Only DEFINITION: Customize what functions are available at the push of 2 buttons (Direct menu and one more) by adjusting the Direct Selection menu. Note that direct menu selection/exit is always the DIR button. AVAILABLE FOR: N/A. ADJUSTABILITY: All functions are assignable to the 6 available buttons. INTERACTION: None. DESIRED END RESULT:2-button access to the 6 most frequently used functions, such as model selection, timer, auto-start (to reset for next use) or other functions you are currently fine-tuning for your model. CAUTION: The direct button opens the direct selection menu and closes it again, regardless of where you are in the programming. That function can not be assigned elsewhere, and nothing else can be assigned to that key. GOAL: Customize direct select menu so button 1 opens auto-start and button 6 goes to timer, while using LV2. (If using LV3, select DIRC-CALLfrom menu 3.) (If using LV1, first change level selection to LV2, p. 12.) Where Next: STEPS: Open and Select menu 2. Select DIRC-CALL. Edit button 1 to auto-start. Select button 6. Edit button 6 to timer. Close function and menu. Press direct key to open direct menu. Select Auto-start. Return to direct menu. Close menu. INPUTS: to AT-START. 11 times to TIMER. Change switch assignments (FUNC-SW): See p. 34-35. Change dial assignments (FUNC-DIAL): See p. 34-35. LV3FUNCTIONS for the Expert Driver, Boats or Complex Models LevelLV3 OnlyProgramming Adjustment of Throttle ATL ATL DEFINITIONS: • ATL, electronic: (Adjustable throttle limiter) Adjusts total travel available to the braking side of the throttle servo, similar to adjusting EPA, but allows adjustment “on the fly” when ATL is assigned to a dial. When brake mixing is used in the unmixed mode, this adjusts the rear brake servo without changing amount of braking to front brake servo. • ATL, mechanical: Decreases the physical distance the brake trigger can move. See p. 51. AVAILABLE FOR: Braking only. ADJUSTABILITY: • RATE: 0 (no braking at all) to 100% (same as EPA). Default: 100%. • Rate adjustment: May be easily adjusted while driving (if assigned to a dial/trim, see FUNC-DIAL, pp. 34-35). Default assignment is to gripper dial 2. INTERACTION:EPA affects total travel available to the servo. ATL is directly proportional to EPA. DESIRED END RESULT:Quickly adjust overall braking sensitivity, including with a dial while driving on the track. CAUTION: Dial 2 is assigned for ATL adjustment as a default, even if user does not realize it. 37 GOAL: While using LV3: • Reassign the ATL adjustment to digital trim 1; • Adjust the ATL setting from 100% to 20% (with the digital trim centered). (If using LV1or LV2, first change level selection, see p. 12.) Where Next: STEPS: Use FUNC-DIALto assign ATL to digital trim 1. While viewing home screen, adjust digital trim 1 until ATL reads 0. Select ATL. Adjust ATL to 20%. Close function and menu. INPUTS: 9 steps to DT1. to ATL. Move trim 1, if necessary, until display reads 0for ATL. to 20%. Adjust the throttle servo’s EPA (EPA):See p. 18. Set up channel 3 control (CH3-POSI):See p. 40. Set up brake mixing for separate front/rear brakes (BRAKE-MIX):See p. 42.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 September 22, 2002 RE: FUTABA Corporation of American FCC ID: AZPFP-PK-FM-75 After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. 1) Although the label information shows the label attached to the product, it is not obvious what part of the device the label is placed upon. Please provide additional photographs or drawing to help show where the label is placed. 2) Please provide information regarding DC voltages/currents applied into the several elements of the final radio frequency amplifying device for normal operation over the power range? 3) Please provide front and back photograph of the daughter board attached to the TX board. 4) From the Internal photographs, it is not certain where the TX board was located inside the device. Please provide further information 5) One page of the schematics is not easily readable. Are these part of the TX circuitry? If so, please provide a better copy. 6) The crystal appears to be accessible from the outside of the device from the external photographs. This is not allowed. Please see 95.645. Please explain. 7) The users manual page 15 & 20 shows the crystal location to the user as accessible. However, part 95.645(b) does not allow this. Please explain. 8) Page 20 & 100 mentions that the crystal may be changed without removal of the module. This is not allowed according to 95.645(b). 9) Currently, the application only appears to be submitted for 75.590 MHz. Information regarding additional modules, test data, or any other necessary information does not appear to be provided. This information must be provided with this application (see 95.645(b)) or this application will only cover a single frequency. If this application will nly cover a single application, then the users manual should be modified to cover this. Please comment and provide any necessary information. Note Users Manual, page 99. 10) Please provide an explanation for the large difference between radiated and conducted power measurements. Timothy R. Johnson Examining Engineer Direct Phone: 404-414-8071 mailto: [email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application.

Johnson American TCB 2002-11-04 In reference to FCC ID AZPFP-PK-FM-75 1. The position of the label has been modified. It is now on top of the RF module and visible from outside. 2. DC Voltage/Current supplied to the final RF amplifier is 9.6 V DC / 66.3 mA. 3. The internal photographs have been amended accordingly and will be uploaded. 4. The position of the TX module is further illustrated by additional external and internal photos. 5. Only the first page shows the RF circuitry. 6. We had a preproduction sample for testing on which the crystal was accessible. This has been changed for production. 7. The user manual has been corrected accordingly. The corrected version will be uploaded. 8. Same as 7. 9. This application covers only 75.590 MHz as single frequency. No other information was received from the client and the users manual has been modified accordingly. 10. Since radiated emission tests have been with the unit standing on a wooden table, there is no counterweight for the antenna. This reduces dramatically the ERP of the transmitter and explains this significant difference between conducted and radiated data. Johann Roidt Senton GmbH
