Using the Video Transmitter
Preparing the Scimitar LRX Quadcopter for Flight
1. Before each flight, ALWAYS power on the transmitter before connecting the flight battery to the quadcopter. After each
flight, disconnect the flight battery from the quadcopter before powering off the transmitter.
NOTICE:
Connecting the flight battery before powering on the transmitter can start the binding process. Please see the
Transmitter and Receiver Binding
section of this manual for more information.
2. When the ESC beeps, the flight controller is initialized and ready for flight.
The flight controller will not arm the motors until the throttle stick is in the lowest possible position.
Available Frequencies, North America (mHz)
The VT1000 video transmitter includes an SMA Antenna
Adaptor which connects to the main PCB with an MMXC
connector.
Install a compatible 5.8GHz antenna onto the SMA connector.
IMPORTANT:
Do not kink or cut the antenna adaptor or
antenna wires. Antenna wires are coaxial wires, there-
fore kinks or cuts will degrade performance.
NOTICE:
Powering on the video transmitter without
an antenna connected will cause damage to the video
transmitter. Damage from powering on the video
transmitter without a compatible antenna attached is
not covered under warranty.
Connecting an Antenna
Consult local laws and ordinances before operating FPV
equipment. In some areas, FPV operation may be limited or
prohibited. You are responsible for operating this product in
a legal and responsible manner.
See the
Available Frequencies
table to find the desired video
channel and band. The video transmitter channel and band
are changed using the buttons on the top of the quadcopter,
as shown. There are two rows of LEDs visible through the LED
window. The row of red LEDs indicates the channel selected
(1–8). The row of blue LEDs indicates the selected band (A, B,
E, F, R). The green LEDs indicate the video transmitter output
power level selected.
Only change the video channel and band when the video transmitter is not transmitting a signal or is in Pit Mode. If any of the
green LEDs are glowing solid, see the directions below to stop transmitting a video signal prior to changing the channel or
band.
Channel and Band Selection
1. A short press of button
B
will change channels. Quickly press and release the button once for each channel until the
desired channel is reached.
2. A long press of button
B
will change the band. Press and hold button
B
for several seconds and release for each band
change.
Power Level Selection
1. Press and hold button
A
to change the power output. All green LEDs off means RF is off, one flashing green LED is Pit Mode, one
solid green LED is 25mW, two solid green LEDs is 200mW, three solid green LEDs is 600mW.
Tip:
Use a screwdriver to access the video transmitter buttons, if you are not using the remote sensor feature on the transmitter.
