9. Setting Up the Transmitter
In the operating instructions, the numbers in the text always refer to the figure opposite or the figures within
the section. Cross-references to other figures will be indicated by the corresponding figure number. Upon
delivery, the transmitter is set to mode II. In this mode, the left control lever controls the rudder and motor
speed, and the right control lever controls the aileron and elevator.
a) Inserting the Batteries/Rechargeable Batteries
For the power supply of the transmitter you will need 8 alkaline batteries (e.g. Conrad Item No. 652507, pack of 4,
order 2) or rechargeable mignon size batteries (AA). For ecological and also for economical reasons it is recom-
mended to use rechargeable batteries, since they can be recharged.
The battery compartment lid (1) is located on the back of
the transmitter. Press the corrugated area (2) and push off
the lid downwards. Now insert the 8 batteries or recharge-
able batteries into the battery compartment.
Observe the correct polarity of the individual cells. The po-
larity is indicated (3) at the bottom of the battery compart-
ment.
Then slide the lid of the battery compartment back on from
the bottom until the locking mechanism engages.
b) Charging Rechargeable Batteries in the Transmitter
When using the remote transmitter with rechargeable bat-
teries, you can attach a charging cable to the charging jack
(1) while the transmitter is switched off to charge the re-
chargeable batteries with a suitable charger (not part of the
delivery) directly in the transmitter.
Attention!
If batteries are inserted in the transmitter, a
charger must not be connected. Conventional
batteries (1.5V) must not be recharged; there is
a risk of fire and explosion!
Only charge rechargeable batteries intended for
that purpose!
When connecting a charging cable, always observe the correct polarity of the connecting plug. The outer contact of
the charging socket must be connected to the negative terminal (-) and the inner contact to the positive terminal (+) of
the charger. The charging current should correspond to approximately 1/10 of the capacity value of the inserted
rechargeable batteries. With rechargeable batteries with a capacity of 2000 mAh this corresponds to a charging
current of approx. 200 mA and the charging time is approx. 14 hours.
