b) Installing the Receiver
The installation of the receiver depends on the model. For this reason, you should always follow the recommendations
of the model manufacturer regarding receiver installation.
Regardless of the model, you should always try to install the receiver so that it is protected from dust, dirt, moisture and
vibration in the best possible way. Two-sided adhesive foam (servo tape) or even rubber rings that hold the foam-
wrapped receiver (e.g. in an RC box) securely in place are suitable for fastening.
Don't position the receiver directly next to the drive control unit, the motor, the servo or the rechargeable
battery. Maintain as much distance as possible from metal components and all connector cables as
these can drastically reduce the range.
c) Checking the Control Functions
• Connect the servos or drive control unit used in your model to the receiver.
• Then switch on the transmitter. Release the steering wheel (steering function) and the drive function lever, do not
move them.
• Now connect the power supply to your model (connect the rechargeable battery to the drive control unit or the
battery/rechargeable battery to the receiver).
• First switch on the drive control unit (or switch on the receiver power supply).
• Once you have correctly connected everything, the drive control unit (as an example) recognises the neutral setting
or programming of the drive control unit is required.
The steering should respond to turning of the steering wheel (see fig. 1, pos. 4) and the drive of the model should
react to the operating lever for the drive function (see fig. 1, pos. 5).
If the steering servo and the gas servo (or the motor on a drive control unit) do not move, then it is
possible that the receiver will first need to be registered to the transmitter.
To do this, see chapter 12. k).
• If the steering or drive function respond with movements exactly opposite to the steering direction on the transmitter,
this can be easily reprogrammed. You can find the exact procedure for this is under chapter 12. d).
