The included AR636 receiver has been 

programmed for operation specifically in this aircraft. 

The programming in this receiver cannot be changed 

by the user.

To operate the SAFE system in this aircraft,  

set up your optional DSMX transmitter using the  

chart below.

- SAFE Flight mode is selected using Channel 5 

signal (high, middle, low)

- Panic Recovery mode is selected with Channel 6 

signal (high, low)

IMPORTANT:

 A transmitter with a 2-position Channel 

5 switch will only allow the use of position 0 or posi-

tion 2 flight modes. If possible (refer to your transmit-

ter manual), assign Channel 5 in your transmitter to a 

3-position switch to operate all 3 flight modes.

Refer to your transmitter’s manual for more informa-

tion about transmitter setup.
