[. . . ] · Accepts no unwanted signals by using ID code · Built-in antenna (TS5801 transmitter) Application, Export, and Modification 1. It is not intended for use in any application other than the control of models for hobby and recreational purposes. Exportation precautions: (a) When this product is exported from the country of manufacture, its use is to be approved by the laws governing the country of destination concerning devices that emit radio frequencies. If this product is then re-exported to other countries, it may be subject to restrictions on such export. [. . . ] If the batteries are left in the model, electrolyte may leak and damage the model. <NiCd Battery Recycling> A used NiCd battery is valuable resource. As such, the antenna (arrow direction) should not be pointed directly at the model. Throttle Trim Lever (DT2) (*1) Adjusts the throttle in small increments so the model will not move at neutral. LCD screen Power switch turned on: Beep confirmation sound is generated and the model name is displayed for about two seconds and then the initial screen appears. (Initial screen) y number display y voltage display Antenna (Built-in) The antenna is inside of this part. Select Button Power Switch When slid upward, the power is turned on. Press the Select button to select the desired function screen. Steering Wheel Turn model to left or right. Channel 3 Switch Turn channel 3 servo to left or right. Throttle Trigger Control the speed of the model and movement forward and backward. Steering Dual Rate Lever (D/R) Grip Handle Adjust the vehicle's steering sensitivity across the entire range. (*1) (*1) Digital trim DT1, DT2, and D/R operation Push the lever to the left or right (up or down). The current position is displayed on the LCD screen for about two seconds. When the trim exceeds the maximum trim adjustment range, the beep tone will change and the servo will not move any further. Remember, the trims are digital so the position of each trim is remembered for each model separately. WARNING Do not cover/hold the built-in antenna part of TS5801 transmitter by your hand during running. Otherwise, the operating range may become shorter. Before Operation 9 Battery Replacement Method (4 AA size batteries) CAUTION A l w ay s b e s u r e y o u r e i n s e r t t h e batteries in the correct polarity order. If the batteries are loaded incorrectly , the transmitter may be damaged. When the transmitter will not be used for any short or long period of time, always remove the batteries. If the batteries do happen to leak , clean the battery case and contacts thoroughly. Keep all devices that emit high frequency noise, such as motors, batteries, and wiring that handles heavy current loads, at least 1/2 inch away from the receiver and the receiver antenna. High frequency noise will cause a decrease in operating range and could cause loss of control. Install electronic speed control heat sinks as well as other components that conduct electricity so they cannot come in contact with aluminum, carbon fiber or other materials that conduct electricity. If, for example, the speed control came loose while the model was running and touched an aluminum chassis, a short circuit may occur that would cause irreparable damage to the system as well as loss of control. Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors. If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise will reduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems. Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come in contact with other metal parts. Should a linkage or other metal parts come in contact with other metal parts under vibration, the high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interference and possible loss of control. CAUTION Do Not disassemble any part of this system that is not specified in the instruction manual. Futaba will not be responsible for any damage due to improper disassembly of any part of the radio control system. Assembly / Adjustment 13 How to link the transmitter and the receiver Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start operation, the receiver must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link is made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver needs to be used with another transmitter.
