Installation Precautions
It is very important to properly install the R/C system on the model aircraft. Please refer
to the following instructions:
In order to protect the receiver, wrap the receiver with 10mm foam rubber, and then
fasten it with a rubber band or a Velcro strap.
The servos should be installed with rubber gaskets and brass eyelets to isolate the
vibration from the fuselage. Do not lock the screws too tight, otherwise the rubber
gasket will become distort and reduce the vibration-proof performance.
When mounting a servo, make sure that the servo can rotate over its full travel and
check that the push-rods and servo arms do not bind or contact each other.
When mounting a power switch, keep away from the engine's exhaust pipe and any
places with high vibration. And ensure that you can turn the switch on/off without
binding.
The two antennas of the receiver should be placed at 90 degrees to each other. Do
not place the two antennas twisted together or in parallel.
Flying Precautions
WARNING
: Personal injury and property loss may be caused by improper aircraft
handling. Please operate strictly according to the following safety instructions.
Flying Field and Conditions:
In order to protect the personal safety and their property, please do not fly at the
following places:
Near another radio control flying field
Near or above people
Near residential areas, schools, hospitals or other places where people congregate
Near high-voltage lines, tall buildings, or communication facilities
Never fly on rainy day, thunder storm, when the wind is strong, and at night.
Always keep away from humidity environment.
The R/C system is composed of precision electronic components and mechanical
parts. Please keep away from humidity environment to prevent the components
damage from vapor and cause a failure which would lead to a crash.
Always keep away from heat sources.
The R/C system is composed of precision electronic components and mechanical
parts. Please keep it away from heat sources and sunshine to avoid distortion, or
even damage caused by high temperature.
Precautions before Flight:
Always make sure that all servos in the model work properly following the transmitter
stick movements prior to flight. And make sure that all switches work properly as
well.
Always check the remaining capacity of both the transmitter and receiver batteries
before each flying session prior to flight. Low battery capacity will cause loss of
control and a crash.
Always perform a range test before each flying session.
Always check the operation of each control surface before each flying session.
Precautions during Flight:
Never grasp the transmitter antenna during flight. Otherwise, the transmitter output
power will reduce drastically.
Do not point the antenna directly toward the aircraft during flight. When pointing the
antenna directly, the transmitter output is the weakest. The strong radio wave radiate
from the side of the transmitter antenna.
Never turn on and off the power switch of transmitter during flight or while the engine
or motor is running.
Do not touch the engine, motor, or other heating device during and immediately after
use. These devices or components may become hot during use.
For safety, always fly the aircraft in visible range. Flying behind tall buildings will not
only lose sight of the aircraft, but also degrade the RF signal performance.
Precautions in Other Conditions
When setting the transmitter during flight preparations, do not set it upright on the
ground. The transmitter may fall to the ground, the sticks may move and the servos
may rotate unexpectedly and cause injury.
Do not touch the receiver antenna directly by hands. Otherwise, the components
may be damaged by static, and this may cause a reduction in transmission distance
of the receiver.
Before turning on the transmitter, always make sure the transmitter throttle stick and
throttle trim are in the lowest position.
Always turn on the R/C system in proper sequence: turn on the transmitter first, then
turn on the receiver, and then turn on the engine or motor. Incorrect sequence may
cause loss of control and personal injury.
Always turn off the R/C system in proper sequence: turn off the engine or motor first,
then turn off the receiver, and then turn off the transmitter. Incorrect sequence may
cause loss of control and personal injury.

Features
GAVIN-6A is a 2.4GHz 6-channel transmitter, applicable for airplanes. It is designed with
the following features:
Wireless IC
Adopting wireless chips, with extended power amplifier (PA) and low noise amplifier
(LNA), can extremely improve the system output power and receiving sensitivity,
thereby improving the signal coverage.
All-angle antenna
By using all-band gain antenna on the transmitter, the transmitting efficiency is
greatly improved. By using diversity antenna on the receiver, combined with the
signal detection and switching algorithm, the receiving signal is stable and reliable.
Long distance stable operating
Adopting 2.4GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) and multiple
frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology, the R/C system has high
receiving sensitivity and strong anti-interference capability, can support a stable
operating for more than 1,000 meters on the ground and more than 1,600 meters in
the air.
Unique ID code
Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. Once the binding is
made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further binding is necessary after
restarting the receiver. When the receiver is working, it will verify whether the ID
code of the transmitter is being paired, to enhance the stability of the R/C system.
Mixing function
Support V-tail mixing and Elevon mixing, one button togglable.
High section precision
By using the 4096 section precision sticks, you can experience a smooth flight
operation.
Low power consumption
Using low power devices and transmitting the signals at intervals, this will reduce the
transmitting power, also lead to low battery power consumption and longer battery
life.
Low voltage alarm
Have battery level LED indicators and low battery alarm function, the flight is safer.
Double bearing structure
Double bearing assembly sticks provide precise control and excellent operating
experience and won’t come loose even working for a long time.
One-click rescue
Combined with optional SR86A receiver (with gyro integrated) or ISTONE-A PRO
flight controller for airplane, you can use one-click rescue function, which is designed
for new beginners.
