ACE RC 2.4GHz Receiver Features and setup
FAIL-SAFE Setup
RX (TRS603DD)
Push the link button for 6 sec.
Turn off both transmitter and receiver to save the Fail-Safe position. Now, Fail-Safe process is completed.
Switch on both.
Wait for the system to boot and control over the model.
Testing the FAIL-SAFE Setting
a. Move the sticks to positions other than the FAIL-SAFE settings, and then switch off the transmitter. The servos should now move to the
FAIL-SAFE positions previously stored, after the HOLD period (1 sec.) has elapsed.
How to turn FAIL-SAFE Off and reactivate the Hold Mode
a. Switch on the transmitter, then the receiver. Wait for the system to boot and you have control over the model.
b. Press and hold the receiver function button for 6 seconds and release it. After 2 seconds the red and blue LEDs will blink rapidly.
c. Push the function button once shortly, during the time LED blinks. (approx. 5 seconds)
d. FAIL-SAFE Mode is now deactivated, and HOLD mode is activated instead.
e. Turn off the transmitter and the receiver to save the setting.f. Turn the system back on to use it.
Range Check Function
It is critical that before each flight session you perform a range check that confirms the signal between the receiver and transmitter is
appropriate.
Unlike the FM/PPM or PCM signal radios, 2.4GHz systems use a fixed shorter, stubby transmitter antenna so the traditional method of range
checking your system by lowering the transmitter antenna will not work.
We instead use a power-down mode to reduce the transmitter signal strength. Once the power-down mode is activated it runs for about 90
seconds, shortening the effective range 100 feet (30 m).
During this power-down mode that you should walk away from the secured aircraft carrying the transmitter to a distance of approx. 30 meters,
testing the effective range.
Release the link button when LED is turned off.
You will see that both RED & BLUE LEDs will start blinking.
BLUE LED will glow steady once the setting
process is completed during above 8sec.
Both RED & BLUE LEDs will blink alternately for 8sec.
During that time, move concerned transmitter sticks to the desired FAIL-SAFE positions.

Fail-Safe position
- If FAIL-SAFE is deactivated, the FAIL-SAFE position settings are also deleted!
- The FAIL-SAFE settings should be checked every time before you run the engine/motor.
If you are unable to accomplish a successful range check of 90 feet, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY.
How to use Power-Down
3Sec.
Push
Press the function button on the back of transmitter and hold
for 3 seconds.
After 3 second Sky Tech TS6i
+
will beep once to notify you
that the system is in Power Down Mode.
Power Down Mode is activated for 90 second, and the
countdown starts from the time the button released.
Release the button to activate the mode.
