Craig’s Proteus Mainsheet Joystick Setup

Did you see Craig’s post on the Proteus Facebook Group regarding the way he has set up his IOM mainsheet joystick??

In fact, a couple of the Datchet guys are working more with this idea now. It requires 101% concentration, but you can see the attraction.

Craig has it set up on his Spektrum. To do it similarly on your Radiomaster or Futaba transmitter is another variation on the “Advanced Mainsheet Management” sections of our online Radiomaster/Futaba radio sailing manuals.

Futaba : Advanced Transmitter Guide for Radio Sailing

After publishing our Advanced Radio Sailing Guide to the Radiomaster, it seemed right to publish the same manual for Futaba.

Now Radiomaster and Futaba have their own dedicated online manual so you can access it from your phone at the water’s edge.

Same advanced features, but different programming to achieve identical outcomes!

You can access it from the home page of this “Datchet Radio Sailing” club website. Hover your mouse over the word “RADIOS” on the main menu bar above. Two drop downs will appear – Radiomaster and Futaba. Just click on the one that you want.

Let us know how it goes! Especially errors or omissions, plus any advice you have on Alarms Management on the Futaba. You can email us via the address on the CONTACT page of this website.
