Detailed
Information
Granted, it takes an expensive
LCD driver (requiring 10 times the power needed for ordinary
6-channel screens) to produce the XP6102’s exclusive
1,550-element dot matrix display. But it’s worth it.
Unlike the screens of other 6-channels, the 6102’s
clutter-free displays let you focus solely on the
information you need for the function or mix you’re
programming or reviewing.
And for even greater clarity,
some screens—including the dual rate/exponential
screens—actually display the results of your adjustments in
graph form. In other words, problems like unintended
"reverse expo" and headaches with throttle/pitch setups
become a thing of the past.
Proven and reliable as the XP6102’s FM R700 receiver is, we
can’t imagine anyone passing up the chance to own a 6102
equipped with JR’s new PCM version of the 700 — the SPCM
R770 — for only a few bucks more. And as far as the tired
old PCM vs. FM debate goes, do any of us really believe
every TOC competitor in recent memory flew with PCM just to
be fashionable? Not a chance. The debate’s over. Go with the
SPCM R770S-equipped XP6102 and join the pros at a price
that’s just too good to ignore.
Once they made the XP6102’s PCM version more affordable and
its programming easier, JR® engineers figured more memory
for more model setups would make a lot of sense. And for
today’s RCer, they decided capacity for 10 models would be
just about perfect. But they didn’t stop with adding more
model memory. There’s also 8-character model naming. And you
can activate the 6102’s many functions your way, because its
switch "assignability" is virtually unlimited. What’s
more, this is control flexibility with familiar starting
points, because the 6102’s switches are still named—
according to their positions—with the designations we’re all
accustomed to. And for safety’s sake, the 6102’s
fully-programmable PCM Failsafe is factory preset to react
to control interruption by returning the throttle to idle
while the control surfaces hold their last commanded
positions.
