  • Page 1 ALPHA-3-CO CAN BE USED WITH BATTERY POWER ONLY. THEY HAVE CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS DIRECTIONAL LIGHTS & 2 x SOUND TRIGGERS. FOR THE # ALPHA-3-CO. USE 5v – 18v ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM TAKE INTO ACCOUNT FULLY CHARGED BATTERIES CAN & DO EXCEED THE NOMINAL VOLTAGE.
  • Page 2 - 2 - INSTALLING THE # ALPHA-3-CO ESC. The # ALPHA-3-COESC uses DSM2/DSMX 2.4 Ghz digital proportional R/C’s only with four (4) or more servo channels. We use, recommend and prefer our own TX-3, TX-5 and TX-7 DSM2 TX handpieces.
