Electric models with an electronic flight controller only require a separate rechargeable receiver battery if the flight
controller used does not have a BEC circuit. For further information, refer to the technical documents of the
controller.
Channels 5 and 6 can be assigned differently depending on model.
There also is the option of operating two servos via a V-cable at a
receiver output. For a possible setup or distribution of the control
channel, see the adjacent sketches in figure 9.
If a model is equipped, e.g. with two aileron servos, the second
servo can be connected to a receiver output that has not been
assigned yet. The control is then performed via one of the three
freely programming mixers. For more information on the servo
connection and the mixing functions, see the following chapters
(programing of the remote control transmitter) in the respective
function.
Important!
It is recommended to use a pair of tweezers or long-
nosed pliers to disconnect the connection. To prevent
cable breaks, you should always pull on the plastic
casing of the plug to disconnect the connection. Never
pull on the cables.
b) LED Display
The receiver has an LED display that serves mainly as an indicator for the receiver condition on one side (see figure
8, item 2).
The LED is lit only when the transmitter is on and bound to the receiver in operation of the receiver. If the receiver does
not recognise any valid transmitter signal, the LED is not lit. For more information on transmitter binding, see chapter
16, Binding Function.
c) Installing the Receiver
Installation of the receiver depends on the model. For this reason, you should always follow the recommendations of
the model manufacturer regarding the installation. With electric models, make sure to keep sufficient distance to
electronic flight controllers as the flight controller can have a negative effect on the reception quality. Regardless of the
model, you should always try to install the receiver so that it is protected from dirt, moisture, heat, and vibration in the
best possible way. Two-sided adhesive foam (servo tape) or rubber rings that hold the foam-wrapped receiver securely
in place are suitable for fastening.
