Default Battery charge jack

If I want to use the transmitter charging jack on the Ex-10, what type of plug will I need? Can I use the Futaba one? Thanks!

KO, Futaba and Sanwa (Airtronics) are all the same plug. JR has the polarity reversed.

Hi, I have a question about my Helios.
I tried to read the whole manual, but I couldn't find the solution.
At the moment, I use CH1 and 2 for steering and throttle.
And I want to use CH3 for rear steering as my TLT-1 is 4WS.
But what I got the result is when I put CH3 to ET4 or 5. however I pust left and right, the servo only turn from extremely left to right or reverse.
Is that normal? Or if I can do something like attach the CH3 to CH1. When I turn left. one servo go left another one go right??

Thanks in advance!

amazon- There is no channel mixing feature in the Helios, sorry. The 3CH can only be used as an on/off switch, mainly for putting gas trucks into reverse.

What is the cheapest way to connect the Helios to your computer? Is the $60 kit the only option?

If you already have the PC interface, then all you need is the adapter for the Helios #61003.

If you don't have that, then you'll need the Value set #61001. This includes the PC interface and Helios adpater.

Actually, we did have one in the past. It was not an aluminum case but a hard ABS plastic case. Very light and very limited in production. This item was still being offered when the Helios was released (2 years ago). After the release of the Helios they sold very quickly, out-of-stock and discontiued.

You may see something later this year.

Yes I have that, but not fit the Helios with extension module. Atsushi Hara device alum case is very nice, I wonder if they sell the case only then it would be awesome.

Later this year you mean new radio?

I have the Speedmind bag and I put a JR Z-1 with an extension in there and it fits no problem. Maybe you have a different angle on the extension.

FYI, Japanese market sells Hara's Device case separately.

Go here and click products:
