designed for use with FMsss plug-in crystals.
The crystals determine the spot frequency

This takes the form of a clear three-stage LED
monitor system with an electronically
expanded scale to monitor the battery voltage. If
the battery indicator moves into the „flat" range,
cease operations immediately and either fit new

Transmitter controls and functions
Steering function lever (3)
Steering function trim lever (4)
This very useful lever provides fine adjustment
of the steering function, ensuring that each indi-
vidual model runs perfectly straight at the neu-
tral position.
Charge socket (5)
If the transmitter is fitted with rechargeable cells,
these can be charged via this socket. During the
charge process the ON/OFF switch on the
transmitter must be set to OFF.

Transmitter crystal (6)
The plug-in crystal is easily accessible from
outside the case, and can be withdrawn together
with the protective cap. Use only genuine
GRAUPNER FMsss plug-in crystals on the
appropriate frequency. They are fitted with a black
protective cap and bear the code letter T (for
transmitter).
ON/OFF switch (7)
Servo reverse switches (8)
These switches are used to reverse the direction
of rotation of the servos connected to the
receiver. This feature is very useful when setting
up the system to suit a new model.
