Installing the Receiver
Install the receiver in the normal position recommended by the airplane's
manufacturer. Double-sided tape or foam can be used to secure the receiver
in place.
TIP: The hard case can be removed to help the AR6610T fi t into a slim, car-
bon fuselage. It is recommended to cover the bare receiver in heat shrink.
Mounting the Antennas
To install the antennas, drill two 1/16-inch holes in the desired antenna
mounting positions.
External Antennas
Slide the feeder antennas through the holes until the 31mm tip, and about
2mm of coaxial, completely exit the fuselage. Use a drop of CA or tape to fi x
the antenna to the fuselage.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the 31mm active portion of each antenna tip is
fully exposed.
TIP: Use the optional (sold separately) Antenna Exit Guides to safely mount
the antennas outside of the fuselage.
IMPORTANT: If the antenna is to be mounted internally (in the front of
a 2.4GHz fuse), the coaxial can be taped into position. Ensure the 31mm tip
is located at least 2 inches from any signifi cant metal or carbon structure.
Check that at least one antenna will always be in the RF visual line of sight of
the transmitter (e.g. not blocked by carbon fi ber structures) in all attitudes. This
can easily be visualized by
having a helper stand about
20 feet away and rotate
the airplane in all attitudes,
confi rming that there is a
direct line between you and
at least one receiver antenna
that isn't blocked by carbon
fi ber structure.
