Default Airtronics RD 6000 ......help!

Hiya,
I flew heli's and airplanes with my RD6000 for several years so here are a few things I came accross.

The throttle high and Idle up alarms are really helpful if you fly heli's. The screen should display which condition (or both) is faulted. The switches can be reversed in the etc. menu so normal flight mode can be top switches towards you or away from you.

I would suggest you read the manual section on resetting everything to default settings.

This radio only has dual rates and expo on elev and ail when in the airplane mode. So on my Magic fun fly, I used a heli mode to fly the plane. I had to give up flaperon and coupled elev/flaperon mixing. BUT I gained three flight modes with triple rates and expo on elev/ail/and rudder!
I used another model number to fly the plane in airplane mode.
This radio is pretty good for the most part.

Hope this helps.
