TURNING  ON  AND  OFF  YOUR  TRANSMITTER  WILL  CAUSE
RECEIVERS  TO  LOCK  AND  UNLOCK!    FOR  THIS  REASON,
PLEASE  MAKE  SURE  THAT  YOUR  LAST  MODEL  IS  TURNED
OFF  BEFORE  FLYING  THE  NEXT  MODEL!    ALTHOUGH  THIS
IS  THE  SAME  BEHAIVOR  AS  35MHz/72MHz  AND  SOME
OTHER  2.4GHz  SYSTEMS,  WE  ARE  LOOKING  INTO
SOLUTIONS TO ELIMINATE THIS POSSIBILITY.

NOTE:  The  range  with  the  antenna  off  and  PROG  button  pressed
when  using  the  v3.0  and  later  firmware  will  be  noticeably  less  than
previous versions.  This is due to the fact that the power level is now
25  times  lower  than  previous  versions  when  pressing  the  PROG
button.

Range Testing

To perform a range test of the XtremeLink

®

system, follow the

instructions below. Have someone help you during this procedure.

Range test for full range receivers:

1. Install the receiver in the R/C device as it will be used.
2. Turn on the radio system so servo movement can be observed.
3. Using flat ground (pavement, low cut grass, or dirt) place the R/C device
so that the receiver antenna is no less than 6" from the ground. This might
require you elevating the R/C device during the testing.
4. Hold your transmitter waist high, away from your body.
5. Press and

hold

the PROG button on the transmitter module.

6. Walk to a distance of at least 125 feet. If at any time you experience a
pause in controls, try to reproduce it again and release the button to see if
the pause no longer occurs. If the problem does not occur now, check to
make sure that your receiver is at least 6" from the ground while testing.
7. With the PROG button still pressed down, walk away from the R/C device
while moving the sticks until there is intermittent control. Releasing the
PROG button should restore 100% control. If it does not,

do not use the

system and contact Xtreme Power Systems for assistance!

8. Test complete.
