QUATTRO LITE MANUAL
10. PREFLIGHT INFORMATION
QUATTRO TRAINER FUNCTION
The Quattro features a built-in trainer function. The
transmitter can be used as either a master (trainer)
or as a slave (trainee). The Quattro is compatible
with all other current PPM selectable (FM) J-Line or
JR radios that have built-in trainer systems. An
optional Trainer Cord is needed (JRPA130).
OPERATING THE TRAINER FUNCTION
1. Match the servo reversing and trims of both
radios.
2. Plug the optional trainer cord into both
transmitters.
3. Turn ON the master transmitter.
NOTE:
The slave radio must be left OFF.
4. Test all the control functions on your aircraft
with the master radio.
5. Push the trainer button on the master
transmitter and check all the control functions
with the slave radio.
Special Note to Beginners:
We strongly suggest
that you seek the help of an experienced model
airplane pilot prior to flying your new model.
RANGE TESTING YOUR MODEL
We suggest that before the initial flight of your
model, you first perform a ground range test to
ensure that the transmitting/receiving abilities of
your Quattro perform properly. Conduct the range
test as follows:
Do not extend the transmitter antenna at this time.
Turn your Quattro transmitter ON. Next, turn the
model switch ON. Slowly walk away from the model
while moving the control surfaces. The system
should function properly to a distance of
approximately 60-65 feet.
Electric Users:
Due to the variation in RF inter-
ference levels in electric applications, it is highly
recommended that an engine on range test be
performed prior to the first flight of the model.
NOTE:
If your test falls short of the described
range, confirm that your batteries are fully charged.
If this situation remains unchanged, please contact
the Horizon Service Center (address and phone
number at the back of this manual) before
attempting to fly your model.
