a.  To help the environment, consider replacing the disposable batter-

ies for this transmitter and for other household electronic items with 

rechargeable batteries. Visit your local hobby dealer for hobby grade 

chargers and batteries

Please use caution and 

follow the manufac-

turer’s recommended 

operating instructions for 

these items and always 

wear eye protection.

Although your Helion RC product is adjusted and tested at the factory prior to final packaging, some 

issues may arise during shipping and handling that can be easily resolved at home. For other issues 

it should be known that hobby grade radio controlled products such as those offered by Helion RC 

differ from toy grade, in that they are intended to be user-servicable products where the user can 

disassemble and maintain their own product using factory replacement parts. We try our best to 

ensure the information you need to introduce you to this form of product maintenance is available 

to you though this manual. Please see the trouble shooting guide at the back of this manual for as-

sistance in resolving issues, either as they are experienced out of the box or as found after regular 

use. Assuming your product functions properly as intended out of the box, the best thing you can do 

is pay close attention to how it feels, sounds and functions. This will help you identify problems later 

since you will have a reference of how the product is supposed to perform. If you require further 

information or assistance resolving a possible issue, please consult the warranty card included with 

your product. 

1.  Carefully remove the box contents using side cutting pliers to cut the tie straps.

2.  Remove body and the battery from LiPo Safe Charging sack to inspect it prior to charging.

a.  Read charging instructions and understand all warnings and cautions before proceeding. 

This product is not a toy and should not be charged by anyone except an adult.

b.  Return to this guide in the presence of the charging battery, remembering never to leave 

the battery unattended while charging.

3.  Install antenna tube by sliding antenna into tube and inserting tube into mount on 2-in-1 module. 

Be careful not to pinch the antenna during installation. NOTE: Do NOT fold end of antenna over 

end of tube, this will reduce the range of the radio system and can cause interference when 

operating your vehicle.

4.  Install the [4] AA type alkaline batteries into the transmitter.

5.  Remove the small body clip and battery door latch pin from the vehicle to open the battery
