Important: The 2.4GHz band offers different characteristics than
that of the conventional 50MHz and 72MHz. As such, we strongly
encourage you to read this manual carefully prior to utilizing the TM-
FH and R2006GS S-FHSS system.

and
R2006GS Receiver
Thank you for purchasing the TM-FH 2.4GHz transmitter module and
R2006GS receiver. This system is designed for use only with the Futaba
transmitters indicated elsewhere in this manual. In order to use the TM-
FH transmitter module, you will need to carefully remove the existing
transmitter module and replace it with the TM-FH transmitter module.
The receiver R2006GS, as the model number indicates, is capable of
controlling models up to six channels. Please note: The installation of
the R2006GS differs slightly from that of a typical receiver. Please pay
special attention to the information contained within this manual in order
to have a pleasant ying experience.
Note:
Futaba S-FHSS system and FASST system are not compatible each other.
Features:
2.4GHz Spread Spectrum radio communication system.
Exclusive ID code to avoid interference from other S-FHSS systems.
Fail Safe (F/S) function (for throttle channel)-F/S, Battery F/S
Dual antenna diversity (R2006GS)
Applicable systems:
T9C, T9Zwc2, T10C
R2006GS Receiver
Mini screwdriver

Mark Meaning
Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition and cause
death or serious injury to the user if not carried out properly.
Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition or cause death
or serious injury to the user if not carried out properly, or procedures
where the probability of superficial injury or physical damage is high.
Procedures where the possibility of serious injury to the user is
small, but there is a danger of injury, or physical damage, if not
carried out properly.
Please refer to the table below for the LED status of the
receiver's condition.

Alternate blink Unrecoverable failure (EEPROM, etc.)
Battery F/S function
The TM-FH transmitter module and R2006GS receiver also
provides you with a second safety system, the Battery F/S
(failsafe). When the airborne voltage drops below 3.8V, the
battery failsafe function moves the throttle to a pre-determined
F/S position. If this happens, you should land immediately!
If you need to increase the throttle for your landing approach,
you may temporarily reset the failsafe function by moving the
throttle stick to the predetermined position, after which you'll
have about 30 seconds of throttle control before the battery
function reactivates.

Range Check the Radio
It is extremely important to range check your models prior to
each ying session. This enables you to ensure that everything
is functioning as it should and to obtain maximum enjoyment
from your time flying. The TM-FH transmitter module
incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows
you to perform such a range check.
1
Turn on the transmitter.
2
After the radio frequency link has been established
, press and hold the "F/S, Range" switch located on
the rear of the TM-FH transmitter module. The RF output
display of the transmitter disappears, and the buzzer of
the transmitter rings. the radio frequency power has been
reduced to allow for the range check.
*Note:Donotpressandholdthe"F/S,Range"switchpriortoturning
onthetransmitter.Thiswillalter thestatusoftheF/Ssettings as
notedpreviously.Inorderto avoid thissituation,pleasewaitfora
shorttimeafterturningonthetransmittertoactivatethelowpower
settingonforrangechecking.
3
Walk away from the model while simultaneously
operating the controls. Have an assistant stand by
the model to confirm that all controls are completely
and correctly operational. You should be able to walk
approximately 30-50 paces from the model without losing
control.
4
If the servos jitter or move inadvertently, there may
be a problem. We would strongly suggest you do not
fly until the source of the difficulty has been determined.
Look for loose servo connections or binding pushrods.
Also, be certain that the battery has been fully charged.
󾛽
WARNING
󾛹
Please make sure that you do not push and hold the F/
S, Range switch when flying as this reduces the power
output of the transmitter and reduces the overall range of your
transmitter.
Other precautions
1
When utilizing the trainer function of the transmitter
as an instructor, please do not switch to the student's
control unit until the RF is active after turning the
transmitter on. Failure to adhere to this procedure may
result in a malfunction.
2
The outside of the host device into which the module
is installed must also display a label referring to the
enclosed module, This exterior label can use wording
such as the following: "Contains Transmitter Module FCC
ID: AZPTMFH-24G" or "Contains FCC ID: AZPTMFH-
24G".
3
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, a separation distance of at least 20cm
must be maintained between the antenna of this device
and all persons.
4
This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Usage Precautions:
1) Prior to utilizing any radio control system, it is strongly recommended
that you read and abide by the Safety Code created by the Academy of
Model Aeronautics as well as any site specific rules and regulations that
might exist. Doing so will greatly increase your enjoyment of the hobby.
2) In order to maintain complete control of your aircraft it is important that
it remains visible at all times. Flying behind large objects such as build-
ings, grain bins, etc. is not suggested. Doing so may result in the reduc-
tion of the quality of the radio frequency link to the model.
3) Please do not grasp the transmitter module's antenna during flight. Do-
ing so may degrade the quality of the radio frequency transmission.
