●

2.4 GHz frequency band is not only used for radio control. This frequency band

is shared with ISM (Industry, Science and Medical) band. It can be affected by

microwave ovens, wireless LAN, digital cordless telephones, audio equipment,

Bluetooth of game machines or cell phones and short-range communication such

as VICS. Also, be cautious about being affected by amateur radio and premises

radio stations for moving body identification since this frequency band is used for

them as well. When a harmful radio frequency interference is done to an existing

radio station, stop the transmission of the radio frequency immediately and take a

measure to avoid the interference.

●

For RC circuit, minimize the use of equipment that can affect 2.4 GHz systems and

make sure to check the safety beforehand. Also, follow the instruction of the facility

manager.

●

When operating the models behind a building or a steel tower, blocking the direction

of radio wave transmission can cause reduction of operation response or loss of

control. Always operate within the range you can visually check.

●

Don't grab the transmitter antenna. Doing so can be dangerous since it can weaken

the radio signal output and narrow the range of operation.

●

Don't attach any metal parts around the antenna of the transmitter.

●

If you have the transmitter’s antenna extremely close to a servo or speed controller

other than the receiver, it can cause malfunction but it is an influence of a strong high

frequency output and it is not abnormal.

●

The receiver is a precise instrument. Don’t subject it to strong impact or vibrations.

Use a thick sponge to prevent vibrations.

●

Keep the antenna wire of the receiver out as much as possible. And keep it straight

and stretched. Don't cut the extra length of the antenna line or bend it.

●

Keep the antenna wire of the receiver out as much as possible. And keep it straight

and stretched. Don't cut the extra length of the antenna line or bend it.

●

Don't place the antenna wire of the receiver close to a electrical noise source like a

motor wire or a battery wire.

●

When installing the receiver on a metallic chassis or a carbon chassis, use layers of

double adhesive tape pieces to keep the receiver from touching the chassis as much

as possible.
