Range Testing Your R/C System

It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each flying session. This enables you to ensure

that everything is functioning as it should and to obtain maximum enjoyment from your time ying. The T16IZ

transmitter incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows you to perform such a range check.

Range check mode

During this mode, the RF power output is reduced so the

range test can be performed. In addition, when this mode

is activated the right LED on the front of the transmitter

starts blinking and the transmitter gives users a warning

with a beeping sound.

The "Range check mode" continues for 60 seconds and

after that the power will return to the normal level. To

exit the "Range check mode" before the 60 seconds,

press the "HOME/EXIT" button. NEVER start flying

when the "Range check mode" is active.

Should you require additional time to perform a range

check, highlight Restart before your time expires and tap

the screen one time.

Range check procedure

1. With the "Range check mode" on, walk away from

the model while simultaneously operating the

controls. Have an assistant stand by the model

to confirm that all controls are completely and

correctly operational. You should be able to

walk approximately 30-50 paces from the model

without losing control.

2. If everything operates correctly, return to the

model. Set the transmitter in a safe, yet accessible,

location so it will be within reach after starting the

engine or motor. Be certain the throttle stick is in

the low throttle position, then start the engine or

motor. Perform another range check with your

assistant holding the aircraft with the engine

running at various speeds. If the servos jitter or

move inadvertently, there may be a problem.

We would strongly suggest you do not y until the

source of the difculty has been determined. Look

for loose servo connections or binding pushrods.

Also, be certain that the battery has been fully

charged.
