•Plug the charge (FBC-1 or FBC-2A optional)

into a 110V outlet and connect the 3P con-
nector of the charger to the receiver/servo
NR-4C NiCd battery pack as shown in Fig. 8.

The LED on the charger will light to indicate
that the NiCd battery is charging.

•The NiCd battery pack can be used about

12 times at 10 minutes/time.

• Always recharge the battery before use.
• The charging time is about12~15 hours

•With the battery system, insert the four

dry-cell batteries, being sure that the polar-

ity is correct, then firmly tighten the coin
screw.

• Connect the servo and switch as shown in

Fig. 9. Then extend the transmitter and re-

ceiver antennas fully.

•Set the transmitter POWER switch to ON,

then set the receiver POWER switch to ON.

The servo will stop near the neutral posi-

tion.
Operate each stick of the transmitter and
check that the corresponding servo faith-
fully follows the movement of the stick.

•Set the pushrod at each servo horn, then

check that the direction of servo matches
the direction of transmitter stick.

•Operate each servo horn over its entire

operating range and check if the pushrod is
too tight or too loose.

Applying unreasonable force to the servo
horn will adversely affect the servo and

quickly drain the batteries.
Always make the operating width of each

rudder somewhat larger than the full

stroke (including trim) of the servo horn.
Adjust the servo horns so that they oper-
ate smoothly even when the trim lever and
stick lever are operated simultaneously in

the same direction.
