TRANSMITTER ANTENNA

1. The transmitter antenna is adjustable so please make sure that the antenna is never pointed directly at the 

model when flying as this creates a weak signal for the receiver.

2. Keep the antenna perpendicular to the transmitter’s face to create a better RF condition for the receiver.  

Of course this depends on how you hold the transmitter, but in most cases, adjusting the transmitter 

antenna so that it is perpendicular to the face will give the best results. Please adjust the transmitter 

antenna to the way you hold the transmitter.

   

3. NEVER grip the antenna when flying as this degrades RF quality.  

PAIR PRoCEDuRE

The transmitter has an individual ID that is assigned to it in the factory.  In order to start operation, the receiver 

must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link is made, the ID 

code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used with another 

transmitter. If you purchase another EScale Receiver this procedure is necessary; otherwise the receiver will not 

work.

1. Place the transmitter and the receiver close to each other (within 1 meter).

2. Turn on the transmitter then the receiver. If they are not paired, the red LED on the receiver will blink slowly 

or be off, follow the next steps to link and pair the receiver and the transmitter:

3. Press down the receiver “pair button” switch for more than two seconds, once paired the receiver LED will 

start to blink quickly, it shows they are paired, release the switch.

4. When the linking is complete, the receiver LED will change to solid red and receiver will start to respond 

to the transmitter after 2 seconds.  Please refer to the table below for the LED status indicating the 

receivers condition.

Receiving signals, and ID is matched: On

Receiving signals, but ID not is matched: Off

No signal reception: Off

Receiver ID memory is empty: Blink slowly

CHANGING THE TRASNMITTER ID

The transmitter has an individual ID that is assigned to it in the factory.  Even though there is a very small chance 

that there will be the same transmitter ID in the same flying field, just in case it does happen, the transmitter has 

an ID set up function.

Hold the “PDM” button to turn on the transmitter, the two LEDs will blink.  Press the “PDM” button to change to a 

new ID, this new ID will become active when the next time you switch on the transmitter.

Nb.  once you have set up a new ID for your transmitter, please remember to re-link your receiver with your 

transmitter before flight.

You can go back to the original factory set ID, press the “PDM” when turning on the transmitter, then release the 

“PDM” button and turn the transmitter off and on again.
