DX4e Range Check

Placing the transmitter in RANGE CHECK mode reduces the output power, 
allowing a range check.

DX4e Transmitter Range Check Process

Before performing the range check, ensure the correct failsafe stick 
positions are established.

1. 

With the system powered on and the model restrained on the 
ground*, stand 90ft/28m away from the model.

2. 

Face the model with the transmitter in your normal fl ying position.

3. 

Push and hold the trainer button while toggling the Hi/Lo Rate Switch 
four times.

4. 

The LEDs will fl ash and the alarm will sound. The system is in range 
check mode.

IMPORTANT:

 You must hold the trainer button during the entire range 

check process. Releasing the button switch will exit the range check 
mode.

You should have total control of the model with the trainer button held at 
90ft/28m meters.

*In some aircraft, when the model is placed on the ground, the antenna(s) 
can be within inches of the ground. Close proximity of the antenna(s) to the 
ground can reduce the effectiveness of the range check. This is called pulling. 
If you experience issues during the range check, restrain the model on a non-
conductive stand or table up to 2ft (60cm) above the ground. Then range check 
the system again.

If control issues exist, contact the appropriate Product Support Department for 
assistance, or visit the Spektrum website for more information.

Servo Reversing Switches (K)

These switches select the servo direction of each channel. Use your fi ngernail 
or a small screwdriver to change the switch position to normal (NOR) or 
reverse (REV) as needed to make transmitter controls operate the model as 
desired. Perform the Control Direction Test before fl ying.

ACT/AUX Switch (Q)

This switch activates a receiver channel (such as servos) connected through 
an AUX channel of the receiver.

France RF Setting

The DX4e has a France RF setting that complies with French regulations. The 
France RF setting should only be turned on when operating your transmitter in 
France outdoors.

To set France mode (Illustration 1 below):

Push and hold the trainer button on the top of the transmitter while pushing 
and holding the two sticks as shown below, then power ON the transmitter. 
After hearing a series of descending beep tones (high to low), release the 
trainer switch and the sticks. The France setting is now turned on. Bind the 
transmitter to the receiver for the change to take effect.

To set Standard mode (Illustration 2 below):

Push and hold the trainer button on the top of the transmitter while pushing 
and holding the two sticks as shown below, then power ON the transmitter. Af-
ter hearing a series of ascending beep tones (low to high), release the trainer 
switch and the sticks. The France setting is turned off.
