Hobbykings T4A 2.4ghz system is an entry level transmitter offering the reliability of 2.4Ghz signal technology and a receiver.
The T4A makes a good backup transmitter or a take anywhere unit. Drop it, scratch it, leave it in the car and forget about it. This is what the T4A is all about. Not suitable for the multi flapperon, mixer, vtail, FPV, robot controlling hobbyist.
Key Features; 4-channel 2.4GHz transmitter with servo reversing. Easy to use control for basic models. Includes 6-channel receiver Trainer system option. This system does not need a PC to program servo direction.
Included; 1 x 2.4Ghz transmitter 1 x 2.4Ghz Receiver 1 x Bind Plug.
Note: Only HK-T6A receiver is comptible with HK-T4A transmitter.
Only HK-T6Av2 receiver is compatible with the HK-T4Av2 transmitter.
Yes, Channel one is the right stick left and right, channel two is the right stick up and down (I would use this for throttle as it centers) and 3 is left stick up and down, normally used as throttle, however it doesnt center, and may cause problems arming yout ESC. If you were to use this only for a ground vehicle and wanted throttle on the left, I would look up the mode 1 version of this transmitter.
Ronnie H I am just a member like you. So if you got the 3rd check out screen and you should see the BOX. So first screen is the CART CONTENT (step 1), the second screen is Check Out (step 2) and third screen is Check Out (step 3). Step3 is where it should show your credit. You then can tick the box. If it is not showing there and is showing on your "View My Account" screen, then contact Live CS. Also you are a Gold Member and can reply to questions.
Ronnie H when you complete your order you will be asked if you want to use you 2.75 credit. Now you can only use credits for items (not postage) and you cannot use credits with gift vouchers. So Good Buying!
So now I,m confident the THROTTLE will be on the left(Mode 2)Now this may be silly but the control stick will travel up & down if the transmitter is being held up-right in normal fashion of-course:)
Secondly I plan on using this Transmitter for multi projects.I know their are fancier transmitters that make this a little simpler but $$$ is a huge issue right now.So long as I purchase HK compatible receivers or even more simple if I,m only involved with one project at a time I technically can swap the receiver that comes with the TX into a electric buggy,Boat, & possibly a park plane????I know years ago due to frequency issues this would not be a good idea but with 2.4 technology I can pull this off,or am I missing something?
Lastly does this TX RX system have good range?I should at least get the range my NOW VINTAGE AIRTRONICS SR used to get?Yes?No?
Thanks for your time,I do appreciate it,Capt.Larry & son Zephyr
Larry like WOW it is better to break your questions down into small parts. But I guess you just need to get it all out at once. SO YES YES YES and YES, about 800m but there is a little 3 channel receiver that works with this as well. It is cool because it has a built in fail safe. Hobby King GT-2 2.4Ghz Receiver 3Ch (SKU: HK-GT2_RX). Lastly Larry have you consider the 6 channel TX???
I bought my plane 2-15-2013 many other items as in transmitter,batteries etc all in Febuary. I bought 7 weeks ago.I did get my radio back Thanks to all for the help.I also never got any instruction,manuals or any how to with the rc items hard to know as a newbee.I did get the manual after searching a long time.
Well the Manual is now under the Purple File Tab above NOW. The fact you are still a standard user is a PAIN. So you need to chat to LIVE CS (Again). Ask about being made a Gold member. It is meant to be 14 days after first buy. So I think you have waited enough. It is so hard to help when you cannot reply! SORRY.
NO. I FINALLY RECEIVED A NOTICE OF SHIPPING? I NEVER RECEIVED ANY INSTRUCTION WITH MANY OF THE BIG ITEMS I BOUGHT . LEAVES A NEWBEE LIKE MYSELF HANGING IN THE BREEZE.ALSO I JUST TRIED TO BUY ANOTHER TRANSMITTER FROM THE USA WAREHOUSE AND THEY KEEP TRYING TO CHARGE ME THE HIGHER SHIPPING AND FULFILMENT FROM THE INTERNATIONAL HOUSE.I HAD THE TRANSMITTER ON BACKORDER WATCH THEY SENT NOTICE OF IN STOCK USA WAREHOUSE.CAN NOT ORDER FROM USA WAREHOUSE?I CAN'T JUSTIFY THE EXTRA COST? THANKS FOR YOUR INFO CURT.
Curtis so some success but not much. If you go to the international warehouse listing for this item, the file and manuals are back there NOW. Go there and look under the Purple File Tab you will find a manual there. Also some software "Software, settings: default and Kinetic " which I must look into! They are out of stock here, but once they come back in stock, you should be able to buy. Consider putting you email address, in the "STOCK ARRIVAL ALERT". You will get an email if they ever come in!
Curtis how long ago did you pay for you first HobbyKing ITEM. You are still a standard user. The norm is 14 days after you buy you get a Gold status and can reply. So it may be worth looking into with Live CS. Some members are saying they bought a month ago but are still not up graded.
So do you have it back or does HK still have it? I do find with HobbyKing it is a bit of FIND YOUR OWN WAY. It would be nice if, as a new member you got a welcome to HK Pack. Just to let members know what is what. It took me a month to find this too!
Hi I bought a 9x 9-ch turnigy transmitter/receiver. I could not get it to work with the new plane I also bought. I was told after talking to support several times to get a rma and return transmitter for service or replacement. I sent it back with tracking it got back in 2 business days . I was told it functioned correctly because one switch as not set right. I tried it exactly as it came out of the box I have waited over 3 weeks and not a sign of it or any answers. I'm realy loosing my interest in buying more from hobbyking there service seems non existant.i have been waiting very patiently
Curtis this is why we (The Members are here). Why did you not contact us! HERE! We are all keen to help. It is very hard for LIVE CS, to do a great deal. They cannot see what you are doing. If you can get a Specialist it is better. Cs will not always put you to them. They do there best. The Turnigy9XV2 is a great System. I have both. This one is very simple and great for beginners.
Buyers be ware!
This transmitter receiver combo arrived with a defective receiver. After months of trying to work with customer service to resolve the issue, they refunded less than $9 for the receiver* no offer to ship me a new one at their expense. And you can't order just the receiver from the America warehouse! Killer customer service at Hobby King!
Amy sorry to hear that! How did you know the receiver was dead. It is very light. So postage to Aus is only $3. So postage to USA, could not be much. When I buy I buy 2 6ch and 1 x 3 channel for a total weigh of under 100g. Please consider. I know it is hard. You could have posted it back to them but that would cost POSTAGE and is more that it is worth. Please come back! Also consider using a buddy code to buy (it will save you too)
Michael I do not know why HK does not put this on the listing! 8 x AAs either rechargeable or one use batteries. HobbyKing have some LSD (low shelf discharge) batteries. Also a great new 1.6v rechargeable. Have a look in the battery section. Also there is a great Lipo made to fit in that slim battery bay (A little soldering needed). Turnigy 1450mAh 3S 11.1v Transmitter Lipoly Pack (SKU: T1450-TX-3)
MICHAEL I am so sorry!!! All the batteries I gave you were for the TRANSMITTER! FOR THE RECEIVER YOU NEED a Esc (with a Ubec built in) or 4 AAs or Ni-ZN 4.8V 1500mAh Receiver Pack (SKU: 9169000004) or Turnigy LSD 4.8V 2300mAh Ni-MH Flat Receiver Pack (SKU: 9169000007) and other in the Batteries & Accessories \ Rx/Tx Batteries.
My other question,,if there is no way to make my raido milder so I can control my quad,,, is there an adapter system so I can use my Walkera 2801 pro radio with this reciever?
Got a real nice quad kit here and want to fly it but this radio is just too touchy...
Daniel
So how to I re program my TX for slower controls>?
Do I need a jumper cable from my computer...?
When I looked for a owners manual I found some type of down load programs ,,,,is that what I am looking at?
Daniel
I may be wrong here as I have just read that it can be programmed, if this is the case you will need Hobby King 2.4Ghz 6Ch Tx USB Cable
PRODUCT ID: FS-L001 then you will need T6Config software
I did not get any owners manual with my raido/reciever,,, is there anything I might be missing?
I wish I could tune the stick action back about 60% as its way too touchy for my quad I built..
Daniel

Daniel and Rexy03 it do think you will need to go inside the case. It may be similar to the Turnigy9XV2. You may need to solider a port, onto the board. I do think, it is really not worth the trouble. I thing a manual change to horns and servo arms would be easier. IE small arms (close to the centre) and larger horn.
Zabih 8 x AAs either rechargeable or one use batteries. HobbyKing have some LSD (low shelf discharge) batteries. Also a great new 1.6v rechargeable. Have a look in the battery section.

(SKU: T1450-TX-3)
I think I will just shell out he extra money and get a Walkera RX so I can use my TX that is adjustable.. I had hopes I could save a little money and break away from the Walkrea trap..
Thanks to all for your support... Hope in time to be as smart and help others.. Daniel Kansas
HEY Guy's,My last radio(TX) was a AIRTRONICS SR I bought for my Hornet back in the 80's...My specific question is about the "MODE 1" & "MODE 2".I beleive I undersatnd this concept but I really need someone who is sure to school me in this.I am used too having the left control stick as the throttle & moving up & down,this is what I still want.Now will Hobbyking & other online dealers offten use the same photo in the description of the radio?I think this is what confuses me most as I have seen MODE 1 & MODE 2 IN DESCRIPT. PIC'S AND BOTH LOOK LIKE THE LEFT CONTROL STICK ONLY GOES LEFT & RIGHT-NOT up & down./ ???Thanks

Larry So lets keep it simple, the one you want is mode 2. Mode 2 has the throttle on the left hand side. The problem is that the guys, taking the photos try to use one photo as much as they can. Hence the mix up, you see else where. At HobbyKing you will see all sticks (mostly) centered! Good Flying!
Scott yes yes. But it does not have a built in fail safe like the 3 channel receiver. So grab a 3 channel receiver as well ( Hobby King GT-2 2.4Ghz Receiver 3Ch SKU: HK-GT2_RX )
Mode 1 means that the throttle and rudder are on the right control stick. Mode 2 means that throttle and rudder are on the left control stick. Which one you use is determined by preference, and the orientation of the controls for your application. Also your geographic location as some modes are more prevalent in certain countries.
I could but you not just buy Hobby Kings Buddy Box system. They have 2 on the market. A Wireless Buddy Box System 4CH (Dual RX Controller) SKU: DUAL-RX4-01 and a Wireless Buddy Box System 8CH (Dual RX Controller). This way you can buddy any RC Sets.

No it will not buddy with a $pektrum radio. I think the channels get switched in the cable or something. You probably need a master tx with the same style of trainer port.
Mike have you consider the buddy box. They are 2 on the market. A Wireless Buddy Box System 4CH (Dual RX Controller) SKU: DUAL-RX4-01 and a Wireless Buddy Box System 8CH (Dual RX Controller). This way you can buddy any RC Sets.
Have a look in LiPo, LiFe, NiMH Battery > Rx/Tx Batteries. There is a great range of batteries there. You can us a 4 or 5 set of Nimh like JR AA 1500mah Receiver Battery Ni-MH 4.8V (New Version)
SKU: JRNH-1500R or Futaba AA 1000mah Receiver Battery Ni-CD 4.8VSKU: NR-4RB in LiPo, LiFe, NiMH Battery > NiMH Batteries.
I have mine about a year now. Works perfect Full range and never a glitch. Use it in my sailplanes and combat wings. No bells or whistles. No ATV...Very old school.

My tr6a arrived 1 week after ordering from USA warehouse. Packaging was well done. Plenty of bubble wrap for protection..5 stars for time and method of packaging shipment. But here where 3 stars are awarded. NO BINDING instrutions included with radio and trasmitter. Does any one have binding procedure to offer for this T4a trans and HK t6A receuver? pls help,
Try to include as much data as possible.
I love these 2.4 radios. For the money you can't beat them!

My four channel HK system arrived in a timely fashion but, due to poor packaging the housing that supports the transmitter antenna was shattered.
Of course, with the stated HK return policy it is impractical to return the system. I did manage to repair it somewhat and it does work. I really wish that HK would do a better job of packaging. It really would not require much more effort.
