pressed as a percentage, of the signal packages from

the transmitter arriving at the receiver.

This evaluation in percentage of the quality of the

receiver's microprocessor is shown live on the trans-
mitter's display via the receiver's feedback channel.
S-dBm
dBm is a logarithmic value that provides a compara-
tive overview of extreme differences in level. A level of
0 dBm corresponds to 1 mW. The dBm is positive for
an output > 1 mW, and the dBm is correspondingly
negative for an output < 1 mW.
In practice, this means that when a remote control
system is used, generally (significantly) less than 1
mW and hence a level < 0 dBm is received by the re-
ceiver from a 100 mW output of a standard transmitter
(= 20 dBm) because of the fanning out of the radio
waves and associated weakening of the signal on the
way to the receiver.
Consequently, the reception shown in dBm in the dis-
play is generally negative. The higher the number after
the minus sign, the worse the reception. This is im-
portant to remember during
the model.
Perform a Range test
late all servo movements that could occur during the
flight. The range must be at least 50 m on the ground
in an activated range test. At this distance, a value
not worse than -80 dBm may be displayed in the "RX
DATAVIEW" display under "S-dBm" to ensure safe
operation. If the value is lower, such as -85 dBm, you
should not operate your model. Check the installation
of the receiver and antenna position.
During operation, the reception should not fall below
(signal quality)
-90 dBm; if this is the case, you should reduce your
distance to the model. Normally before this level is
reached, the acoustic range warning is triggered (1
beep every second) which reflects the signal strength
of the feedback channel to ensure safe operation.
S-STR
The signal strength (S-STR) is displayed in percent-
age. In general, an acoustic range warning (1 beep
every second) is emitted once the receiver signal in
(reception level)
the feedback channel becomes too weak. Since the
transmitter's output is significantly higher than the re-
ceiver, the model can always be operated safely. The
model distance should nevertheless be reduced for
reasons of safety until the warning tone stops.
