1. Introduction

Quantum’s “PILOT” integrates camera dedication, and Quantum’s FreeXWire radio technology
into a single unit.

The PILOT allows the user to control up to three remote flash groups.  A flash group may contain
one or more flashes.

The Pilot is compatible with Qflash series TRIO, and Qflash 5d-R, 3d-R with FreeXWire models
FW7Q, FW8R, FW9T, FW10w.

Older Qflash models need to be upgraded to be compatible with the PILOT.

Qflash models T4d and T5d can be upgraded to T5d-R

Qflash models T2 and T2d can be upgraded to T3d-R.

See www.qtm.com for costs for these upgrades.
