2.4GHZ FH4T RADIO SYSTEM USER'S GUIDE
Telemetry System with Sanwa Synchronized Link Support
The included RX-482 2.4GHz FH4T Super Response SSL receiver does not feature full Telemetry support (e.g., Temperature
data and RPM data). Full Telemetry capability is supported only when used with a Sanwa Super Vortex series ESC
plugged into the BATT/SSL port. This is due to the fact that full internal Telemetry support slows the Response Time of the
receiver and we've chosen to include a receiver that will allow you fastest Response Time possible.
Thank you for your purchase of the Airtronics MT-S 2.4GHz FH4T radio control system. This User's Guide is intended to acquaint
you with the many unique features of your new radio control system.
The MT-S is designed for the user who wants more than an entry-level system, but doesn't need a top of the line system. The
MT-S falls perfectly between these two extremes, providing true Telemetry capability and Sanwa Synchronized Link (SSL)
support, with many additional programming features typically found only in higher end systems, all at a reasonable price that
makes the MT-S affordable for most users.
The MT-S has been designed for the utmost in comfort and precise control of all types of model cars and boats. We wish you
the best of success and fun with your new purchase! Please read this User's Guide carefully prior to use so that you may obtain
maximum success and enjoyment from the operation of your new radio control system.
IMPORTANT:
Due to differences in the implementation of 2.4GHz technology among manufacturers, only Airtronics and
Sanwa branded FH3, and FH4T 2.4GHz surface receivers are compatible with your radio control system. Compatibility may
vary by region.
Full Telemetry support is available only when used with an Airtronics or Sanwa RX-461 or RX-462 FH4T Telemetry receiver, or when
the included RX-482 2.4GHz FH4T Super Response SSL receiver is used along with a Sanwa Super Vortex series ESC.
Sanwa Synchronized Link (SSL) support is available only when used with an Airtronics or Sanwa SSL receiver and a Sanwa
Super Vortex series ESC or other SSL accessory. Additional accessories are available through your local Airtronics or Sanwa retailer.
Not all features are supported by all receiver types. Some features are limited by receiver type.

LIABILITY STATEMENT
GENERAL
The packaging of your radio control system has been specially designed for the safe transportation and storage of the radio
control system's components. After unpacking your radio control system, do not discard the packaging materials.
Save the packaging materials for future use if you ever need to send your radio control system to us for service or to store
your radio control system if you don't plan on using it for an extended period of time.
PACKAGING
GENERAL
This is a high-output, full-range radio control system that should well exceed the range needed for any surface model. For safety,
the user should perform a range test at the area of operation to ensure that the radio control system has complete control of the
model at the farthest reaches of the operational area. We recommend that the user enlist the help of a fellow modeler to walk
the model to the farthest reaches of the track or other operational area, then test for proper operation.
In addition to the above, please observe the following and also make sure to read the various precautions on page 5.
• Be certain to read this User's Guide in its entirety. Think 'Safety First' for yourself, others and your equipment. Always observe
all the rules of the track or other operational area where you operate your radio control equipment.
• If at any time during the operation of your model, should you feel or observe erratic operation or abnormality, end your operation
as quickly and safely as possible. DO NOT operate your model again until you are certain the problem has been corrected.
• Your model can cause serious damage or injury. Please use caution and courtesy at all times during use.
• Do not expose the radio control system to water or excessive moisture. If using in a wet environment, waterproof the
receiver by placing it in a water-tight radio box or wrapping it in a water-tight balloon.
• If you have little to no experience operating R/C models, we recommend you seek the assistance of an experienced
modeler or your local hobby shop for guidance.
• The Low Voltage Alert alarm will sound when the transmitter battery voltage drops to the default threshold of 4.6 volts. If this
occurs, stop using the transmitter as soon as is safely possible, then replace or recharge the transmitter batteries.
The RX-482 2.4GHz FH4T Super Response SSL receiver included features an internal antenna. Do to the internal
antenna position,
this receiver is not suitable for use in R/C boats
. It should be used in R/C cars and trucks only.
This radio control system operates on the 2.4GHz frequency band. The 2.4GHz connection is determined by the
transmitter and receiver pair. Unlike ordinary crystal-based systems, your model can be used without frequency control.
