Three chemistry types are available:
1. 2-Cell LiPo or Li-Ion
2. 5-Cell NiMh or NiCd
3. 2-Cell LiFe
The Output Voltage function is used to select the output voltage to the servos, either
5.9V or 7.4V. For most servos, this selection should be set to 5.9V. For HV or High
Voltage servos that can accept 2-Cell LiPo voltage, this can be set to 7.4V to take
advantage of the servos’ capabilities. Note, however, that in order to use the 7.4V
setting, all servos connected must be capable of handling this voltage.
CAUTION: 7.4V must only be selected on servos that are compatible with this
voltage, if 7.4V is selected on non-HV type servos, failure of the servos can occur,
resulting in a loss in control of the model.
Reset
The Reset function is used to reset the parameters of the Cockpit to the default
settings. The Sequencer, Servo Matching, and Output Map functions can be reset
individually without affecting other functions.
To Reset the Sequencer, Servo Matching or Output Mapping, perform the following
steps:
1. Select the desired reset option by using the SET button.
2. A pop-up message stating “Caution Reset Sure? No or Yes” will be displayed.
3. Press the I or II to select No or Yes as desired.
4. Press the SET button on the SensorSwitch to confirm the selection.
NOTICE: Once you have confirmed your choice by answering Yes, the values are
reset and the previous settings are lost permanently.
Standard Range Testing
Before each flying session, and especially with a new model, it’s important to
perform a range check. All Spektrum aircraft transmitters incorporate a range
testing system that reduces the output power, allowing a range check.
Range Testing
1. With the model resting on the ground, stand 30 paces (approx. 90 feet/28 meters)
away from the model.
2. Face the model with the transmitter in your normal flying position and put your
transmitter into range test mode. This causes reduced power output from the
transmitter.
3. You should have total control of the model in range test mode at 30 paces (90
feet/28 meters).
4. If control issues exist, call Horizon Product Support for further assistance.
