Safety Notes

We all want you to have many hours of pleasure in our

mutual hobby of modelling, and safety is an important

aspect of this. It is absolutely essential that you read

right through these instructions and take careful note

of all our safety recommendations. We also strongly

recommend that you register without delay at https://

www.graupner.de/en/service/product_registration, as

this ensures that you automatically receive the latest

information relating to your product by e-mail.

If you are a beginner to the world of radio-controlled

model aircraft, boats and cars, we strongly advise that

you seek out an experienced modeller in your ﬁeld, and

ask him or her for help and advice.

If you ever dispose of this transmitter, these instructions

must be passed on to the new owner.

Application

This radio control system may only be used for the

purpose for which the manufacturer intended it, i. e. for

operating radio-controlled models which do not carry hu-

mans. No other type of use is approved or permissible.

Safety notes

SAFETY IS NO ACCIDENT

and

RADIO-CONTROLLED MODELS

ARE NOT PLAYTHINGS

Even small models can cause serious personal injury

and damage to property if they are handled incompe-

tently, or if an accident occurs due to the fault of others.

Technical problems in electrical and mechanical sys-

tems can cause motors to rev up or burst into life unex-

pectedly, with the result that parts may ﬂy off at great

speed, causing considerable injury.

Short-circuits of all kinds must be avoided at all times.

Short-circuits can easily destroy parts of the radio con-

trol system, but even more dangerous is the acute risk

of ﬁre and explosion, depending on the circumstances

and the energy content of the batteries.

Aircraft and boat propellers, helicopter rotors, open

gearboxes and all other rotating parts which are driven

by a motor or engine represent a constant injury hazard.

Do not touch these items with any object or part of your

body. Remember that a propeller spinning at high speed

can easily slice off a ﬁnger! Ensure that no other object

can make contact with the driven components.

Never stand in the primary danger zone, i. e. in the rota-

tional plane of the propeller or other rotating parts, when

the motor is running or the drive battery is connected.

Please note that a glowplug engine or electric motor

could burst into life accidentally if the receiving system

is switched on when you are transmitting the transmitter.

To be on the safe side, disconnect the fueltank or the

ﬂight battery.

Protect all electronic equipment from dust, dirt, damp,

and foreign bodies. Avoid subjecting the equipment

to vibration and excessive heat or cold. Radio control

equipment should only be used in “normal” ambient

temperatures, i. e. within the range -10°C to +55°C.

Avoid subjecting the equipment to shock and pressure.

Check the units at regular intervals for damage to cases

and leads. Do not re-use any item which is damaged or

has become wet, even after you have dried it out thor-

oughly.

Use only those components and accessories which

we expressly recommend. Be sure to use only genuine

matching Graupner connectors of the same design with

contacts of the same material.

When deploying cables ensure that they are not under

strain, are not tightly bent (kinked) or broken. Avoid

sharp edges, as they can chafe through insulating

materials.

Before you use the system, check that all connectors

are pushed home ﬁrmly. When disconnecting compo-

nents, pull on the connectors themselves – not on the

wires.

It is not permissible to carry out any modiﬁcations to the

RC system components, as any such changes invalidate

both your operating licence and your insurance cover.

Installing the receiving system

In a model aircraft the receiver must be packed in soft

foam and stowed behind a stout bulkhead, and in a

model boat or car it should be protected effectively from

dust and spray.

The receiver must not make direct contact with the

fuselage, hull or chassis at any point, otherwise motor

vibration and landing shocks will be transmitted directly

to it. When installing the receiving system in a model

with a glowplug or petrol engine, be sure to install all

the components in well-protected positions, so that no

exhaust gas or oil residues can reach the units and

get inside them. This applies above all to the ON / OFF

switch, which is usually installed in the outer skin of the

model.

Secure the receiver in such a way that the aerial, servo

leads and switch harness are not under any strain. The

receiver aerial should be at least 5 cm away from all

large metal parts and any wiring which is not connected

directly to the receiver. This includes steel and carbon

ﬁbre components, servos, electric motors, fuel pumps,

cabling of all kinds, etc..

Ideally the receiver should be installed well away from
