the receiver using the table at the right.

4.  Using double-sided servo tape (not included) mount the receiver to 

the flat area of the receiver compartment, as shown. The receiver (

LED Light Controller Settings and Options 

1.  Plug the light controller into the gear channel (Port 5).
2.  Assign the gear (port 5) to the rotary knob of your transmitter to give full 

control of all 7 light modes. 

If your transmitter doesn’t have a rotary knob option, the light module can still 

function and be assigned to any 2 or 3 position switch, however not all light 

modes will be available. Travel adjust and sub trim can be used to change 

modes for the 2 or 3 position switch. 

 

The light module can also be Y-harnessed with any channel like flaps but you 

will only get the light groups in the position the channel is in.
