The operating range may become shorter, depending on where the receiver and the an-
tenna are mounted.
WARNING
Do not cut or bundle the receiver antenna wire.
Do not bend the coaxial cable. It causes damage.
Install the antenna in the higher place as shown in the figure.
Put the antenna in the antenna tube to protect it.
Keep the antenna as far away from the motor, ESC and other
noise sources as you possibly can.
Wrap the receiver with something soft, such as foam rubber, to
avoid vibration. If there is a chance of getting wet, put the receiver
in a waterproof bag or balloon.
Caution
Always use R2104GF under the following conditions:
Battery :Power requirement Rated voltage 4.8~7.4V (dry cell battery cannot be used) / 3.5 to 8.4V useable

Under other conditions, the set will not operate, or the specified performance will not be displayed even if it operates. In
addition, it may cause trouble with servos and other equipment. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused
by combination with the products of other companies.
Transmitter mode setting
Set the transmitter to the "HIGH" mode or "NORM" mode. See page 42 for a description of the
setting method.
Note: However, digital servos (including BLS Series brushless servo) can only be used in the HIGH mode.
