## Futaba 7CAP/7CHP Instruction Manual Addendum **Following are corrections to the Futaba instruction manual. Replace the instructions, notes and charts in the Futaba manual as indicated below. The best way would be to photocopy both sides of this addendum, then cut and paste the**  **notes and charts directly into the instruction manual. Page 13**  Replace the note under the chart on the bottom of the page with the following note: On the 7CA transmitters, the Top Left Switches are spring-loaded switch and 2-position switch. On the 7CH transmitters, the Top Left Switch is a 3-position with the spring loaded switch on the top right. **Page 21** The following note refers to the **Basic Menu 2** screen:

**Page 23** Replace the two "INPUTS for EXAMPLE" in the top of the chart on page 23 with the inputs below: for 1 second. (If ADVANCE , again.) to THR-CUT. to choose THR-CUT. **Page 31** 1. Cross out the statement next to the diagram of the computer screen near the top of the page that reads: (Ex: utilizing 2 channels for 2 rudder servos. See mixes, p. 53.) 2. Insert the following chart.

**Page 35** 1. Disregard the entire “Special note for helicopters:” 2. Replace the chart in the manual with this chart and the first one on the other side of this page. **Note: FAIL SAFE only shows if the transmitter**  **is set to transmit in PCM.**

Change channel 5 to switch D. Open the BASIC menu then PARAMETER submenu. Go to channel 5 switch assignment. Change to D. Close menu. to PARAMETER

Set up dial rates and exponential in ACRO mode. Open D/R, EXP
. Choose channel and switch position. Set rate (Ex: high rate = 95%) Set expo (Ex: expo = -15%). Go to 2nd switch position and set rate (Ex: low rate = 70%). Set 2nd exp (Ex: expo = -3%) Optional: If using a 3-position switch, set 3 rd rate. Close. for 1 second. (IfADVANCE, again.) to D/R, EXP
. to desired channel.

. GOAL of EXAMPLE STEPS INPUTS**Page 41** The graphic “ to F/S” should also appear next to the text “OFF position” in the chart. **Page 44** Replace the chart on page 44 with the chart below: FLAP-TRIM allows the flap action to be set in a way that it can be adjusted with the VR dial. Airbrake will also move the flaps to a specified position via movement of a switch. The flaps can also be moved with switch using a programmable mix. See offset as master, p. 53.

**Page 53** Cross out the following note from the Futaba instruction manual: •To operate 2 or more servos for a single axis (such as two rudder servos). **Page 68** 1. Add the diagram of the computer screen below to the "TH-CRV" diagram in the manual:

2. Add the diagram of the computer screen below to the "PI-CRV" diagram in the manual: Set up dual rates and exponential in HELI mode. Note: In HELI mode the switch does not change the rate being adjusted. Change switch channel and switch position with mode button. Open D/R, EXP
. Choose channel and switch position. Set rate (Ex: high rate = 95%) Set expo (Ex: expo = -15%). for 1 second. (IfADVANCE, again.) to D/R, EXP
. to desired channel and switch position.

Add FLAP-TRIM to allow the model's ailerons to drop 30% together as flaps from the VR dial. The FLAPERON function must be active with the second servo set to CH6. Open FLAP-TRIM
.
Set the dial to desired zero flap side. Set the OFS so that the flap will work for the full range of the dial. Set the dial to desired full flap side. Set flap throw (Ex: 30%). Close. for 1 second. (If BASIC again.) to FLAP-TRIM

**VR** to 30% GOAL of EXAMPLE STEPS INPUTS
The function is automatically activated with the FLAPERON.
