Radio Manuals – PDF Downloads or Online Websites…??

If you use any of our transmitter manuals for radio sailors, you’ll know that we did all our basic manuals (and one of our advanced manuals) as pdf downloads. Very popular they were too. (about 3650 or more downloads as I write in July 2026).

Then we did our more advanced featured manuals for Radiomaster/Futaba/Spektrum…. they have been popular, but nothing like the usage yet as the pdf download manuals.

So as a little test we decided to offer the Radiomaster Advanced manual as both a PDF download AND its own website.

Astonishment – the pdf download is already twice as popular as the website …. 650 downloads already.

OK … give us some time and rainy days, and we might put the work in to make the Futaba and Spektrum Advanced manuals available as pdf downloads as well.

If you have strong opinions, just email them in to the website via the contacts page.

Forgive me for getting mentally worn through with this project – Spektrum was the final brand that I learned how to program and implement our advanced suite of transmitter ideas. It’s possibly not quite as complete as our Radiomaster and Futaba manuals. In the event that you find any errors and ommissions – or have ideas of things we can add – please write into this website via the Contacts Page and let us know.
