RADIO SYSTEM RULES
• Always turn your TQi transmitter on first and off last. This procedure
will help to prevent your model from receiving stray signals from
another transmitter, or other source, and running out of control. Your
model has electronic failsafes to prevent this type of malfunction, but
the first, best defense against a runaway model is to always turn the
transmitter on first, and off last.
