    ANTENNA INSTALLATION The AR637T receiver has coaxial style antennas. Active portion We recommend installing the antennas oriented of antenna 90º from each other and as far as possible from metal, batteries, carbon fi ber or fuel tanks to maximize signal reception performance. NOTICE: Do not cut, kink, or modify the antennas.
  • Page 7: Failsafe

    Failsafe In the unlikely event the radio link is lost during use, the receiver will enable the selected failsafe mode. Smart Safe + Hold Last is the default failsafe mode on the AR637T. Preset Failsafe and SAFE Failsafe modes are only available through Forward Programming.
