turn on the transmitter (fully extend the antenna) now turn on the receiver.
Check to see if all servos are working properly.

If not, change the servo direction with the reversing switches located on the bottom of the radio.
If everything is checked out, turn off the receiver first, and then turn off the transmitter.
Warning!!! : Do not shorten the length of the receiver antenna by cutting off any excess wire.
This will severely affect the operating range and could result in injury to yourself and others.

- Use trainer cord. (Not included) Include the part number of the trainer cord for this radio system
- When setting up the trainer system, make sure the student's transmitter is set up properly
so the trims and servo reversing are the same as the master.

hold the trainer switch located on the top left of the Master's transmitter.
Releasing the switch will restore immediate control back to the master.
- Trainer system is compatible with SIC (simulator interface cord- Part # 58318, not included)
