(This function can only be used with HRS or PCM1024 system receivers.)
Fail safe function
This function moves the steering, throttle and channel 3 servos to a preset position
when the receiver cannot receive the signal from the transmitter for some reason.
When the servo operation position is not set, this function operates so that the servos
remains in the position they were in immediately before reception was lost. When the
signal from the transmitter can be received again, this function automatically resets..
- For gasoline engine cars, it is recommended that the throttle channel be set to the
direction that applies the brakes.
- When the transmitter power is turned on, the transmitter transfers the fail safe data to the receiver
and continues to transfer the data every minute thereafter. Note that data for about 1 minute after
the receiver power is turned on is not transferred because usually, the transmitter power is turned
on first and the receiver power is turned on next.
Battery fail safe function
When the receiver battery voltage drops to a certain voltage or less, this function
moves the throttle servo to the position set by fail safe function. When the voltage
recovers, this function automatically resets.
Battery fail safe function ON/OFF switching (PCM only)
Battery fail safe function ON/OFF can be set by transmitter side setting.
Also, with an HRS system, the battery fail safe function cannot be turned OFF.
