## Abstract

A trigger includes a segment for exercising throttle control and a segment for exercising brake control. A switch is provided in a radio control transmitter. The switch can be depressed by pulling the trigger in a direction of an arrow A. Setting of full throttle can be assigned to the switch. Full throttle can be turned on only when the switch is depressed by the trigger. It is possible to control on/off of the full throttle easily.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A radio control transmitter which includes an operation member configured to control a travel speed of a target to be controlled, and is configured to transmit a control signal to the target to be controlled, the radio control transmitter comprising:
a switch configured to be capable of being depressed by the operation member.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 1, wherein
the operation member can be operated in two directions around a neutral position, and
the switch is disposed in a position capable of being depressed when the operation member is operated in one of the two directions.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 1, wherein a signal is transmitted to execute a special operation of the target to be controlled preset in the radio control transmitter when the switch is depressed.

### Claim 4

A radio control transmitter which includes an operation member configured to control a travel speed of a target to be controlled and capable of being operated in two directions around a neutral position, and is configured to transmit a control signal to the target to be controlled, the radio control transmitter comprising:
a first switch configured to be capable of being depressed by the operation member when the operation member is operated in one of the two directions, and
a second switch configured to be capable of being depressed by the operation member when the operation member is operated in the other of the two directions.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 4, wherein a signal is transmitted to execute a special operation of the target to be controlled preset in the radio control transmitter when each of the first switch and the second switch is depressed.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 1, wherein
a shaft of the operation member is supported by the radio control transmitter,
a part of the operation member comes in contact with a part of the radio control transmitter, when the operation member is rotated around the shaft and is rotated over a predetermined amount.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 1, wherein the operation member is a gunlock-shaped trigger.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 1, wherein the switch is a pseudo switch having no internal contact and an elastic pressure unit.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 8, wherein a projection is provided on a face of the operation member which comes in contact with the pressure unit.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 8, wherein the pressure unit is attachable to a casing.

### Claim 11 (depends on 4)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 4, wherein
a shaft of the operation member is supported by the radio control transmitter,
a part of the operation member comes in contact with a part of the radio control transmitter, when the operation member is rotated around the shaft and is rotated over a predetermined amount.

### Claim 12 (depends on 4)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 4, wherein the operation member is a gunlock-shaped trigger.

### Claim 13 (depends on 4)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 4, wherein the switch is a pseudo switch having no internal contact and an elastic pressure unit.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 13, wherein a projection is provided on a face of the operation member which comes in contact with the pressure unit.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The radio control transmitter according to claim 13, wherein the pressure unit is attachable to a casing.
