b) Receiver / antenna Signal + - VCC CH4 CH3 CH2 Antenna GND CH1 LED LED Channel Description CH1 Steering servo CH2 Throttle servo CH3 AUX servo CH4 AUX servo / battery connector v The battery can connect to any channel. CH3 and CH4 can be used for various switching tasks or additional control functions such as lighting circuits. 8. Transmitter batteries Important • Do not use lithium batteries. The output voltage may not be sufficient and can trigger the low battery warning.
9. Standard wiring diagrams Important: • Observe Safety instructions → "c) Receiver / antenna" on page 7. • Two-sided adhesive foam (servo tape) is a suitable method for fastening the base of the receiver / antenna to the model. a) Electronic speed controller (E.S.C.) E.S.C.
10. Operation a) Power ON Important: Turn the transmitter ON first, and then turn the receiver ON. 1. Check that the batteries are fully charged and installed correctly. 2. Switch the transmitter POWER ON, the R.LED will light. 3. Switch the receiver power supply ON. b) Binding (transmitter with receiver) The transmitter has already been bound to the receiver at the factory. Follow these steps if the receiver needs to be replaced or additional receivers bound: 1.
d) Power OFF Important: Turn the receiver OFF first, and then turn the transmitter OFF. 1. Switch the receiver power supply OFF. 2. Switch the transmitter POWER OFF. 11. Controls a) Transmitter channels Channel Description CH1 Steering servo CH2 Throttle servo AUX servo switch (three-positions). For example, the three-switch positions affect the servos as follows: CH3 AUX servo button (minimum / maximum). Pressing the button will switch the PWM between 1000 µs (min.) and 2000 µs (max.).
b) Beginner mode There are two modes, normal and beginner. Beginner mode is designed for novice model users. The throttle response will be reduced by 50% making the model easier to control. • To enter beginner mode: Press and hold the CH4 button and the steering wheel all the way counter-clockwise, and then switch the transmitter POWER ON. - The G.LED will flash to indicate you are in beginner mode. - The mode will be saved after powering off.
1 Test the fail-safe 1. Turn the transmitter POWER ON first, then turn the receiver power supply ON. 2. Support the model on a stand so that any moving parts can run freely. 3. Activate and hold the throttle or steering, then switch the transmitter POWER OFF. 4. The throttle and steering should enter the fail-safe setting. e) Adjust trim Important • Adjusting the trim helps fine tune the throttle and steering response. Trim should not be used to compensate for poor mechanical setup.
f) Adjust servo travel After installation, if the servo arms are not square / 90° to the axis of the servo (image A), adjust the servo travel to center the arm image B). A You will not need to adjust the servo travel again unless the setup has changed. • By default, ST.D/R is set to adjust the trim for CH1 (steering). • ST.D/R can be reassigned to adjust the servo travel for CH2 (throttle), CH3, or CH4. For information about how to reassign, see "g) Multiplexing" on page 16.
12. Care and cleaning Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions as they can cause damage to the housing and malfunctioning. • Before each cleaning, first turn the receiver OFF and then turn the transmitter OFF. • Wipe the product with a dry, fibre-free cloth. 13.
