Futaba 6EXAP_c9 6-Channel 72MHz PCM Flight Transmitter for Airplanes and Helicopters  [6EXAP_c9]

Overview of Futaba 6EXAP_c9

The Futaba 6EXAP_c9 is an RC-scale 6-channel PCM transmitter designed for pilots of fixed-wing and rotary models using 72MHz bands. The system prioritizes simple control mapping and direct-access switches and dials for frequent field changes, including dual rates, flap travel, retractable gear and trainer linking. The hardware layout provides a dedicated flap dial for channel 6, a retractable-gear switch assigned to channel 5, independent trim levers for each axis, a throttle-cut button, and a DATA INPUT lever paired with an LCD for quick menu navigation.

Typical installation follows straightforward steps: bind the included R136HP receiver to the Futaba 6EXAP_c9, plug servos into the receiver channels as labelled (the kit lists four S3003 servos), and confirm travel and direction with the transmitter trims and dual-rate switch. Always extend the transmitter antenna fully while operating on 72MHz to preserve signal integrity. Trainer use requires a trainer cord connection to a second transmitter as described in the controls section.

Compatibility

• Intended for RC airplanes and helicopters that use 72MHz PCM receivers.

As a transmitter package, the Futaba 6EXAP_c9 offers a field-friendly layout that reduces menu diving during preflight checks, making it useful for pilots who need to tweak dual-rate settings, flap travel and trainer arrangements at the flying site.
