SUPER VORTEX Gen2/PRO

/SUPER VORTEX Stock

●Set AUX TYPE of the transmitter for both AUX1, AUX2 to CODE 10.

 

AUX1 CODE10: Setting of SUPER VORTEX Gen2 / PRO /SUPER VORTEX Stock can be from the transmitter.

 

AUX2 CODE10: Setting of each of the parameters of PGS

 servo can be from transmitter.

Note) In SUPER VORTEX Gen2 / PRO, do not assign function to CODE 10 of AUX2 by code 

     assign of PROGRAM BOX Gen2. It interferes with CODE 10 of AUX2 of PGS servo and suitable 

    

setting cannot be done.

Note) Set SSL

CH of PGS servo to [1].

  (Factory setting of PGS

 

servo is [1].)

Note) CODE of AUX2 is used for SUPER VORTEX ZERO / SUPER VORTEX TYPE-D /

     SUPER VORTEX SPORT. It interferes with CODE 10 of AUX2 of PGS

 

servo and

     suitable setting cannot be done. Therefore, it cannot be used along with SSL of PGS servo.

Note)When Connecting PGS servo with SGS-02 cannot change setting at the same time.    

     When using SGS-02, Gain connector connect to SSL port. 

*Please DO NOT connect another devices except SANWA SSL compatible products.

 About setting and connection, please refer manuals of SSL compatible product.

(Factory setting of PGS servo is [1].)

Note) In case of setting each parameter by the function of CODE10 of AUX2, setting of PGS

     servo of SSL

port set by CODE1 of AUX2 can be directly changed from the transmitter.

ABOUT THE RECEIVER

ABOUT HANDLING THE ANTENNA

ABOUT CONNECTION SETUP

 RX-493i

  RX-493i can evaluate received signal strength and packet delivery ratio from transmitter. 

  *MT-R cannot check received signal strength and packet delivery ratio.

  RX-493i can store 2 transmitter ID Number. It is able to combine using individual transmitter which is 

different setting in endurance race .

  If you bind with 2 different transmitter, the receiver store the different transmitter and can operate by 

transmitters without re-bind.

  *CANNOT operate by the 2 different transmitter at the same time. 2 ID store system is only compatible 

with M17, MT-5, or MT-R.

  Throttle neutral position or operation quantities might be different each transmitter. Please adjust each 

transmitter setting to fit chassis linkage.

  When setting SSL compatible devices by MT-R CODE AUX function, please connect SSL compatible 

device to SSL port. 

  MUST set fail-safe setting on each transmitter.

  Please set same RF mode and response mode as 1st transmitter when you bind 2nd transmitter. If it was 

different mode, cannot bind with 2 transmitters.

  *If 2nd transmitter was different RF node and response mode from 1st transmitter, 1st transmitter ID No. is 

deleted and only write 2nd transmitter.

  *If you bound 3rd transmitter, 1st transmitter ID No. will be deleted.

  *When using first time, please bind with receiver. (p.43)

 Reception distance may vary depending on the location 

where the receiver and the antenna are installed.

 To protect the reception part (3 cm from the top) of the 

antenna, make sure to place the antenna in the antenna 

pipe as shown in the right illustration so that the top of the 

antenna is not exposed outside of the antenna pipe.

 Don’t bend the antenna reception part or the antenna 

coaxial cable because breaking can occur inside.

 Don’t pull the coaxial cable forcefully. It may damage the 

receiver interior.

 Install the antenna on an RC car so that the antenna 

reception part is in as high place as possible.

 Don’t cut or bind the antenna reception part or the antenna 

coaxial cable since the receiver sensitivity might decrease.

 Keep the receiver antenna away from the motor and the 

ESC / FET Speed Controller (including cables) and raise it 

straight.  

Note

• If the connector is disconnected due to a vibration during operation, it can cause runaway. Connect the connector 

of the receiver, servos and switches securely.

• Because the receiver is susceptible to vibration, impact and water, make sure to take measures for vibration-proof 

and waterproof. Negligence of taking these measures can cause runaway.

• When installing the receiver, keep the receiver away from a carbon chassis and metallic chassis.

• If metal parts installed on an RC car touch each other, it can cause noise that affects reception performance and it 

can cause runaway.

• Make sure to install a noise killer condenser on the brush motor for electric RC cars. Without a noise killer 

condenser, it can cause noise and runaway.

• For R/C System parts such as the transmitter, receiver, servos, ESC (FET Speed Controller) and transmitter 

battery, use genuine SANWA products.

  *When combining products other than genuine SANWA products, modifying, adjusting or exchanging parts is 

done at a place other than SANWA, we do not take any responsibility.
