    For those learning to fly, the transmitter has a "buddy-box" capability so that you can use the optional trainer cord to connect your Sky Tech TS6i to a second ACE RC transmitter. This allows one transmitter to be used by an instructor as the primary flight control while the Initial Menu Feature Review for HELI Programming Smart Scan Function other is controlled by the student pilot.

  • Page 9: Smart Scan Function

    Do a complete range check as described on page 21 before each flying session to confirm the radio system is working properly. Your ACE RC AFHSS system uses a communication protocol that links and binds the ACE RC 2.4GHz receiver to your transmitter. Once their ID is set, no other transmitter can interfere with your receiver during its operation.
