To adjust the rates insert a small flat-bladed screwdriver into the appropriate
dual rate hole (on the facia of the transmitter) to engage with the underlying

increase the rate.
Charge The Supplied Lipo Battery
Read and fully understand the section headed LI-PO BATTERY WARNINGS and
never leave Li-Po batteries unattended whilst charging.
• Plug the mains power adaptor into a wall socket and connect the charger
to the power adaptor using the circular DC socket. Note that the green LED
‘Power’ indicator on the charger will light.
• Place the charger on a flat, heat resistant surface (not carpet) with a good
airflow all around. Ensure the vent openings on the bottom and sides of the
charger are not blocked. Connect the supplied 3S 1500mAh Li-Po battery
to the charger using the white three pin balance plug, ensuring the correct
orientation of the plug. The red ‘Charger’ LED will light indicating that
the battery is charging. When fully charged the red LED will stop glowing,
whereupon the battery can be disconnected.
NOTE: It will take approximately 1 to 1.5 hours to fully charge a mostly
discharged 1500mAh Alara flight battery.
