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.

of the radio signal can cause you to lose control of your model.
• In order for the transmitter and receiver to bind to one another,
the receiver in the model must be turned on within 20 seconds
of turning on the transmitter. The transmitter LED will flash fast
red indicating a failure to link. If you miss it, simply turn off the
transmitter and start over.
• Always turn on the transmitter before plugging in the battery.
