Installing the Transmitter Batteries
Your Spektrum DX5e comes prebound to
the aircraft.
Remove the battery cover, install the four included batteries
(noting proper polarity) and reinstall the
battery cover.
Low Battery Alarm
When the battery voltage drops below 4.7 volts, an alarm
sounds and the voltage LEDs flash. The batteries must be
replaced immediately. If this happens while flying, land
your aircraft as soon and as safely as possible.
CAUTION:
If using rechargeable batteries, charge
only rechargeable batteries. Charging non-rechargeable
batteries may cause the batteries to burst, resulting in
injury to persons and/or damage to property.
