Range Testing
After the transmitter and receiver are turned on and operating, you can
perform a range check by pressing and HOLDING the PROG button.
The
STATUS LED will change from green to red when the PROG button is held,
indicating the power level has been dropped to the lowest possible. With a
line of sight view of the R/C device, you should be able to walk at least 200
feet away and still have complete control.
If control is lost at any time
within this distance then there is something wrong with your installation
(such as the receiver antenna is located too close to something metallic).
Check the installation and make changes as necessary and then try again.
WARNING! DO NOT PRESS AND HOLD THE PROG BUTTON DURING
THE NORMAL OPERATION (FLYING, DRIVING, ETC.) OF YOUR R/C
DEVICE!
