Linear Mix: a mix that maintains the same relationship of master to slave throughout the whole range. Ex: a mix from
one flap servo to another flap servo at 100% causes the 2nd servo to follow the first servo's movement exactly through
all points of travel. See Programmable mix.
Lithium battery: see Backup battery.
Low Band: 72MHz equipment on a channel from 11 to 35. Receiver channel may be changed to any channel within the
low band without needing retuning. ...............................................................8
LOW BATTERY warning: transmitter's battery is below a safe flight voltage. Recharge immediately. See Error messages.
Low rate: see D/R, EXP.
Master: the primary control. See Programmable mix.
Mechanical gyro: uses a mechanical gyroscope (like a child's toy gyro) to sense change of angle. See Gyros.
MHz: Megahertz. Unit used to express frequency. 72MHz channels are aircraft only frequencies; 75MHz are ground model
only frequencies; 27MHz are air and ground both. 50MHz is legal for HAM amateur license holders. See Frequency.
Mix, mixing rate, mix offset: See Programmable mix.
MIXER ALERT warning: notifies user that a mix is activated which is not considered desirable for engine startup. See
Error messages.
Mode: definition of which channels are assigned to which S
TICK movements. All 7C radios shipped in the US are Mode
2, with elevator and aileron on the right S
TICK.Tochange mode, please visit www.futaba-rc.com.

MODEL COPY: used to duplicate the settings of one model already in memory into a second model memory. Often used
to set up 2 similar models, or make a copy of a working model to experiment with new setups. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26
MODEL NAME: gives each model memory an 6-character name for easy recognition. In MODEL submenu. . . . . . . . . .27
MODEL RESET:restore all data in a single model memory to defaults, including name and model type. See RESET.
