PREPARING THE RADIO

a
a. Check the frequency printed on the transmitter crystal.
b. Remove the radio receiver from box. Check the frequency printed on the receiver crystal, and make sure it matches with the
transmitter crystal. Make sure no one will operate on the same frequency when you are. When there is a radio glitch, it will most
likely be caused by improper crystal, damaged crystal, or people operating on the same frequency. Ensure all wires are securely
connected to the receiver:
steering servo connector plug - into the channel 1 slot
throttle servo connector plug - into the channel 2 slot
battery switch connector plug - into battery slot.
Then thread the receiver antenna/wire through the antenna mount. Thread the receiver antenna/wire all the way through the antenna
tube and install the antenna tube onto the mount. After checking, place the receiver back in the box and secure the receiver box
top.
c. Install the antenna into transmitter.
