No, it will only work with a Futaba transmitter.

Ok no worries
Thank you

Can the stability be switched on/off in flight, or just at binding?

[Toomunsch]

Has anyone written a manual in English for this plane??

[sloughlin]

can this use the same transmitter as the XK110?

Hi fellow RC enthusiasts,
I just purchased the DHC-2 A600 for my 14 year old son as his first plane. We are unable to get the XK controller to synchronize with the plane transmitter. Any advice will be much appreciated.

thank you in advance,
Mark E

Welcome to the Squawk Mark! Lets try something first. Have you tried plugging in the plane first, then turning on the transmitter? Normally we turn the transmitter on and plug in the plane, but give this a try first. Then we can diagnose from there

Hi James,
Thank you for your reply and suggestion.
Unfortunately, no luck.
Note: I purchased the plane and controller as separate items, but the controller should be compatible as it is an XK 2.4 GHz S-FHSS.
please advise,

Just ordered this plane on line. Hopefully to have it in a couple days. I am new to RC planes, I have heard some good and bad reviews on this plane. It's just a beginner plane, I want to work myself up to buying a EDF Jet. Is this a good plane to start with, and what would you recommend the next jump up with be before making my way up to a jet. Thought about a flight simulator. Any suggestions.

Thanks Jim

I bought this plane without the Txn as I have a couple from crashes xk a800. Does the a800 not use the same transmitter?

In the video, you pushed on the left joystick to go from Low to High. What is that doing? My documentation, which is very little, doesn't show anything about how to turn the gyro on or off and doesn't show anything about the a low or high setting.

It can be switched on and off with the RTF controller. I'm trying to figure out how to do with a TX16s Mk ii controller.
