    Range Test Before each flying session, perform a range check. The DX4e incorporates a range testing system. Range check mode decreases the output power from the transmitter for control test purposes. Always perform a range check prior to flying your aircraft. note : Before performing the range check make sure the transmitter throttle stick is at 0% and that the throttle trim is at its lowest setting.
