Glossary
The following defines the symbols and terms used in this instruction manual
Band
Frequency that receiver and transmitter operate on.
Channel
Represents the number of functions the transmitter will
control.
Kit
A set of parts manufactured for building a model.
Modulation method
Two modulation methods are used with R/C systems: AM
(Amplitude Modulation) and FM (Frequency Modulation).
Another method that encodes and transmits the modu-
lated signals is called "PCM".
Neutral
The center position. It is the point where the steering stick
and throttle stick return to when they are not being oper-
ated
Proportional
Because today's R/C systems control servos in propor-
tion to the transmitter operation they are called propor-
tional.
Servo Horn
The part that is installed on the output shaft on the servo
to convert to rotating motion of the servo to transmit the
linear to a control rod., Servo horns come in various
shapes.
Servo Mount
Advise used to secure the servo in the model. (Most often
supplied in the model kit)
Steering (ST)
System to make the model turn left or right using the front
wheels.
Steering Stick
A devise for controlling the steering from the transmitter.
Throttle
Devise that controls the air mixture at the engine intake.
When opened a large air mixture is sucked in and the
engine speed increases. When closed the engine speed
decreases.
Throttle Stick
Devise provided on the transmitter to control the throttle.
Trim
Devise that fine adjusts the neutral point of each servo.
