TM-FH RF Module

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 flying experience. 

Futaba S-FHSS system and FASST system are not compatible each other.

• 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

Repair Service (in U.S.A.)

If any difficulties are encountered while setting up or operating 

your TM-FH transmitter module and R2006GS receiver, please 

consult this instruction manual first.  For further assistance 

you may also refer to your hobby dealer, or contact the Futaba 

Service Center at the web site, fax or telephone number below:

Fax (217) 398-7721, Tel (217) 398-8970 (option 2) 

If you are unable to resolve the issue, pack the system in its 

original container with a note enclosed and a thorough, accurate 

description of the difficulty.  Include the following in your note:

• Symptoms (Including when the problem occurred)

• System (transmitter, Receiver, Servos and model 

numbers)

• Model (Model name)

• Model numbers and quantity

• Your Name, Address and Telephone number

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.

* Please note: It is suggested that you utilize a 4-cell NiCD or NiMH

receiver battery pack as it allows the effective use of the battery F/S

function. Additionally, we do not suggest using dry cell batteries for

the receiver pack as they may cause difficulties.

Range Check the Radio

It is extremely important to range check your models prior to 

each flying 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.

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

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.

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.
