Futaba 6EXAP_c7 6-Channel Flight Transmitter 35MHz PCM for Airplane and Helicopter  [6EXAP_c7]

Overview and purpose of the Futaba 6EXAP

The Futaba 6EXAP is supplied as a six-channel RC flight transmitter package intended for use with both fixed-wing and rotary models. It offers a tactile control layout with direct access to main flight surfaces, throttle management and dedicated channels for flaps and retractable gear to streamline setup and flying.

Channel mapping on the transmitter follows this scheme: channels 1, 2 and 4 control the primary flight surfaces; channel 3 is assigned to throttle; channel 5 operates retractable landing gear; and channel 6 is reserved for flap operation when a flap servo is installed. Built-in switches and dials let users alter dual rates, set exponential and activate a throttle-cut for ground safety.

• Controls: Dual-rate switch for aileron, elevator and rudder; flap control dial assigned to channel 6; trim levers for each stick axis; throttle-cut switch; trainer switch and a gear switch connected to channel 5.
• Interface: LCD screen with MODE and SELECT keys, DATA INPUT lever for parameter edits, dedicated charging jack and main power switch.
• Included electronics indicated in model name: The package designation references an R136HP receiver and four S3003 servos.
• Antenna practice: Make sure the antenna is fully extended before flight to maintain signal range and minimise interference risks.

For flyers fitting a conventional six-channel model, the 6EXAP provides a compact, obvious control layout with physical switches for rate, flap and gear control, helping keep radio setup simple during field checks.
