Page 6: B) Operation
b) Operation • If you do not yet have sufficient knowledge on how to deal with remote-controlled models, please contact an experienced model sportsman or a model construction club. • When putting the device into operation, always turn on the transmitter first. Then switch on the receiver in the model. Otherwise, the model might show unpredictable responses! • Before operating the model, check whether the stationary model reacts as expected to the commands of the remote control. -
Page 7: Notes On Batteries And Rechargeable Batteries
7. Notes on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries • Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children. • Do not leave any batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around openly. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately! • Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into fire. There is a danger of explosion! • Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns to skin on contact;... -

Page 9: Setting Up The Transmitter
10. Setting up the Transmitter In the further course of these instructions, figures in the text always refer to the adjacent figure or the figures within the section. References to other figures are indicated with the corresponding figure number. a) Inserting the Batteries For the power supply of the transmitter you will need 4 alkaline batteries (e.g. Conrad item no. 652507, pack of 4, order 1) of the size AA/mignon. Proceed as follows to insert the batteries: The battery compartment lid (1) is located at the bottom of the transmitter. -
Page 10: Setting Up The Receiver
11. Setting up the Receiver a) Receiver Connection The receiver offers the possibility of connecting 3 servos (re- ceiver output CH1, CH2, CH3) and one rechargeable receiver battery (Bind / VCC). The connections are intended for Futaba plugs protected against polarity reversal and can also be used with JR plugs if required. When connecting servos and speed controllers, always make sure of correct polarity of the plug connectors. -
Page 11: B) Installing The Receiver
Attention! If you still use a mechanical speed controller that has a BEC transmitter, it must not be used to supply the receiver with power. The voltage pending at this plug is too high. Instead, use a separate voltage source with four batteries or a 4- to 5-cell receiver battery. Switch the transmitter on and then take the receiver into operation. If transmitter and receiver are bound correctly (usually set ex works) the red control LED in the receiver lights up (see figure 5, item 16). Verify correct function of the receiver and the connected servos and then switch it off again. -
Page 12: Installing The Servos
12. Installing the Servos The installation of a servo (1) always depends on the particular model used. Detailed information on this can be found in the con- struction documents of the model. Generally, however, try screwing in the servos in a vibration- dampened manner. -
Page 13: A) Setting The Steering Trim
a) Setting the Steering Trim Push and hold the lower one of the two trim buttons (-) for steer- ing trim (also see figure 2, item 12). The green LED display (also see figure 2, item 8) starts to flicker after a while. With the receiver system switched on, the servo lever of the steering servo will turn step by step from the middle position to the end of the trimming area. When the green LED stops flickering, the end of the trimming area has been reached and the servo lever stops. -
Page 14: Verification Of Steering And Driving Functions
14. Verification of Steering and Driving Functions Now connect the servos or speed controllers used in your model and the power supply to the receiver. For better understanding, the steering function is explained using the example of a model car. To prevent the model from driving off inadvertently while testing the steering and drive functions, place the model chassis on a suitable basis (wooden block, etc.). - Page 15 Attention! Operation of the steering wheel at the transmitter only requires little power. Therefore, it is entirely sufficient to operate the steering wheel with your finger tips. If you try to turn the steering wheel further when reaching the end stop, the steering mechanics in the transmitter may be destroyed. If the wheels react opposite to the direction indicated in figure 11, use the steering function reverse switch (15) to switch the effec- tive direction of the steering wheel and thus the steering servo rotational direction. Readjustment of the steering trim may be required.

Page 16: B) Checking And Setting The Driving Function
b) Checking and Setting the Driving Function When you move the operating lever for the drive function (see figure 1, item 3) towards the handle to the stop, the model must accelerate (see figure 13, sketches A). If you press the lever forwards, the model must decelerate or switch to reverse driving (see figure 13, sketches B). Figure 13 If your model‘s drive reacts opposite to the indication in figure 13, use the drive function reverse switch (see figure 12, item 7) to switch the effective direction of the operating lever. Important! In a model with a combustion engine, set the linkage for carburettor and brake linkage so that the throttle/ brake servo is not limited mechanically. -
Page 17: Fail-Safe Function
15. Fail-Safe Function Your remote control receiver offers the option of taking the throttle servo or the electronic speed controller to a certain position or to the stop function if no correct remote control signal is received any longer in case of an interference. If the idle position (central position of the operating lever for driving) was selected as a fail safe position, the vehicle comes to a halt automatically if the radio transmission is interfered with or the model drives out of the remote control‘s range. -
Page 18: Switching The Digital Code
16. Switching the Digital Code The transmitter enables you to control receivers with the digital code „AFHDS“ and „AFHDS2A“. Ex works, the trans- mitter is set to the enclosed „AFHDS2A“-encoded receiver. If you want to operate a REELY receiver with the digital code „AFHDS“, the transmitter must be switched first and then the receiver must be bound to the transmitter (see following chapter). To switch the digital code at the transmitter, proceed as follows. • Switch off the transmitter. • Move the steering wheel for the steering function (see figure 1, item 2) to one side to the stop and keep it there. • Push and hold the binding button (see figure 2, item 14). • Switch on the transmitter with the on/off switch with the steering wheel deflected and the binding button pushed. -
Page 19: Binding Function
17. Binding Function To enable transmitter and receiver to work together, they must be bound by the same digital code. In the delivery state, transmitter and receiver are aligned with each other and can be used at once. The binding settings must be renewed mainly after a replacement of the transmitter or receiver or to remove any interferences. -
Page 20: Simulator Function
18. Simulator Function If required, you can also use the transmitter at the PC for simulations or games. In this case, you will require the optional USB cable (Conrad item no. 517956) and suitable computer software (e.g. car racing games). The USB cable is connected to the PC interface socket (see figure 1, item 5). At correct connection and proper instal- lation, the activated transmitter is recognised by the operating system (e.g. -
Page 21: Disposal
20. Disposal a) Product Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the household waste. Always dispose of the product according to the relevant statutory regulations. Remove any inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries and dispose of them separately from the product. b) Batteries You are required by law to return all used batteries (Battery Directive). -
Page 22: Troubleshooting
22. Troubleshooting Even though the remote control system was built to the state of the art, there can still be interferences or faults. For this reason, we would like to give you some information on how to deal with possible problems. Problem Remedy Transmitter doesn’t respond • Check the batteries in the transmitter. • Check the polarity of the batteries. • Check the on/off switch. The servos do not respond • Check the batteries in the receiver. -
