ABOUT THE RECEIVER
ABOUT HANDLING THE ANTENNA
●
Reception distance may vary depending on the location
where the receiver and the antenna are installed.
●
To protect the reception part (3 cm from the top) of the
antenna, make sure to place the antenna in the antenna
pipe as shown in the right illustration so that the top of the
antenna is not exposed outside of the antenna pipe.
●
Don’t bend the antenna reception part or the antenna
coaxial cable because breaking can occur inside.
●
Don’t pull the coaxial cable forcefully. It may damage the
receiver interior.
●
Install the antenna on an RC car so that the antenna
reception part is in as high place as possible.
●
Don’t cut or bind the antenna reception part or the antenna
coaxial cable since the receiver sensitivity might decrease.
●
Keep the receiver antenna away from the motor and the
ESC (FET Speed Controller) including cables and raise it
straight.
*Indicate receiver working condition by LED light.

RX-493i
RX-493i can evaluate received signal strength and packet delivery ratio from transmitter.
RX-493i can store 2 transmitter ID Number. It is able to combine using individual transmitter which is
different setting in endurance race .
If you bind with 2 different transmitter, the receiver store the different transmitter and can operate by
transmitters without re-bind.
*CANNOT operate by the 2 different transmitter at the same time. 2 ID store system is only compatible
with M17 or MT-5.
Throttle neutral position or operation quantities might be different each transmitter. Please adjust each
transmitter setting to fit chassis linkage.
When setting SSL compatible devices by MT-5 CODE AUX function, please connect SSL compatible
device to SSL port.
MUST set fail-safe setting on each transmitter.
Please set same RF mode and response mode as 1st transmitter when you bind 2nd transmitter. If it was
different mode, cannot bind with 2 transmitters.
*If 2nd transmitter was different RF mode and response mode from 1st transmitter, 1st transmitter ID No. is
deleted and only write 2nd transmitter.
*If you bound 3rd transmitter, 1st transmitter ID No. will be deleted.
*When using first time, please bind with receiver. (p.49)
