powered models) to Idle, or the motor function (electric-powered models) to "Stop", or "Hold" for a model helicopter,
if a fail-safe event should occur. These settings ensure that the model is less likely to ly out of control if interference
should occur, thereby helping to avoid property damage or even personal injury.
Read the operating instructions supplied with your radio control system for more details.
2.3. RANGE-CHECKING
The range of your Graupner/SJ HoTT 2.4 system can be checked as described in the following instructions. We recommend
that you ask a friend to help you with the procedure.
Ideally the receiver should already be bound to the transmitter. Install it in the model in its inal position.
•
Switch the radio control system on, and wait until the red LED on the receiver goes out. The servo movements can now
be observed.
•
Place the model on a lat surface (pavement, close-mown grass, earth), and ensure that the receiver aerials are at least
15 cm above the ground. It may be necessary to pack up the model to achieve this for the period of the range-check.
•
Hold the transmitter away from your body at hip-level. Don't point the transmitter aerial straight at the model; instead
rotate or angle the aerial tip in such a way that it is vertical when you operate the transmitter controls.
•
Select range-check mode, as described in the transmitter instructions.
•
Walk away from the model, moving the transmitter sticks. If you detect an interruption in the radio link at any time
within a distance of about 50 m, see if you can reproduce the problem.
•
If your model is itted with a motor or engine, switch it on or start it, so that you can check efective range when
potential interference is present.
•
Walk further away from the model to the point where full control is no longer possible.
•
At this point you should manually switch of range-check mode.
