Flash 8 Programming Support
While every attempt was made by the Flash 8’s developers to make the software interface easy and
logical, most users will require programming help at some point. There are several “get help” options
available to you.
Hitec Customer Service
Help is available from the Hitec oce through phone support and e-mail inquiries. The U.S. oce is
generally open Monday thru Friday, AM 8:00 to PM 4:30 PST. These hours and days may vary by season.
Every attempt is made to answer every incoming service call, but should you get voice mail, leave your
name and number and a sta member will return your call.
Hitec Web Site
Make plans to visit the Hitec web site on a regular basis at www.hitecrcd.com. There you will nd specs
and other information about the entire Hitec product line, and soon our FAQ pages will hold valuable
information about the Flash 8.
The On-Line Community
One of the benets of the extensive R/C online community is the vast wealth of archived knowledge
available. Hitec sponsors forums on most of the popular R/C web sites where a Hitec sta member
or representative answers all manner of product related questions. Bringing together strangers with
common interests is proving to be one of the greatest gifts of the internet. If past history is any guide to
the future, we are certain forums will be started about the Flash 8.
