For other transmitters/receivers, refer to the literature provided by the manufacturer. If you are
new to radio control, many of these terms may be foreign to you. For the sake of brevity we
won’t go into those terms now, but we do strongly recommend that you take the time to
research any term or concept that is unfamiliar. Please remember to read and abide by your RC
transmitter’s instruction manual, as every system is different.
