* The servo for special functions at receiver output 3 is operated with the operating button for channel 3 (see
Figure 2, Pos. 14). A switching module can also be connected instead of a servo.
** For an electronic model with an electronic speed controller, a separate receiver battery at the Bind/VCC connec-
tor is only required if the speed controller used does not have a BEC circuit. For further information, refer to the
technical documents of the controller.
Warning!
If you still use an old mechanical speed controller that has a BEC plug, do not use it to power the receiver.
The voltage applied to this connector is too high. Instead, use a separate power supply with four AA/Mignon
rechargeable batteries or a 4- to 5-cell NiMH receiver battery.
Turn on the transmitter and then put the receiver into operation. If the transmitter and receiver are correctly connected
(normally set at the factory), the red control LED in the receiver lights up (see Figure 5, Pos. 16). Check the correct
function of the receiver and the connected servos and then switch it off again.
b) Installing the receiver
The installation of the receiver depends on the model. For this reason, you should always follow the recommendations
of the model manufacturer regarding receiver installation.
Independent of this, you should always try to mount the receiver so that it is optimally protected from dust, dirt, mois-
ture, heat and vibrations. Two-sided adhesive foam (servo tape) or even rubber rings that hold the foam-wrapped
receiver securely in place are suitable for fastening.
Warning!
The aerial wire (1) has a precisely determined
length. So do not wind up, wrap or cut the aerial
wire.
This would severely limit the range and thus
present a significant security risk when operat
-
ing a model.
Guide the antenna wire up through an opening in the
model. It is best to use the antenna tubes enclosed with
the remote control.
