I have one of these critters, and on the bench, with the hand held controllers, she starts, runs, and works 100% perfect.
Trying to hook it up in the plane, I hook EVERYTHING as per the book.
RX ( Throttle Channel ) to RX slot on the ECU. Everything else is self explanatory as far as hook up. I also was told to reverse my throttle channel on the TX, which I did. I cannot get a green light, nor get the sucker to work .....HELP !!!!

Terry are some dumb, but basic questions, that you might have or might have not checked.

1. A.T.V. did you make sure you have enough travel?

2. You reversed the Throtle, Why? did it not work before then you reversed it.

3. When you plug in the data Terminal and move the control stick (looking that the screen where you set the throtle) do you see the values changing and do they change in the right direction (will tell you if you need to set the throtle back from reverse.)

Terry,
The ECU must be programmed to the transmitter throttle stick pulsewidth.
There is a set-up procedure for doing this. See page 25, paqragraph "e" of the manual.

Within the Setup Menu, pressing the TCH (teach) control button will give access to the TEACH MENU. This menu is used to program the ECU to the throttle stick pulse widths at three positions: Hi throttle, low throttle, and engine cut.
In order to run the engine in the receiver control mode, (without the SDT) you must follow this procedure.

Here's the brief:

Enter the teach menu. then, set the transmitter's throttle travel adjustment (Code 12 on a JR 10X), to 100% for both high and low throttle positions.

Turn on the transmitter and receiver. The start-data display should should read THROTTLE HI and display a checksum number.

Move the throttle stick to full throttle, then press the SAV button. THROTTLE LO should be displayed. Throttle trim should be in the center.

Move the stick to low throttle, and press the SAV button. THROTTLE CUT should be displayed.

Move the throttle trim to low, and press the SAV button again.
The process is now completed. Your engine will now run with the radio control system. The memorizatrion process is required any time you change transmitters or model memory positions.

Have fun....

Futaba 8UAPS, does this make a ton of difference.

The radio of choice really doesn't mean that much to the ECU, as the ECU STILL needs to memorize the same three points. HI, LO and CUT.
The ECU doesn't know the difference between JR and Futaba outputs.
Set up 100% throw, and have at it!
