10X MANUAL Heli
7
Antenna
• The adjustable base can be locked into position by tighten-
ing the two screws just to the rear of the antenna ball mount. Do
not over-tighten. This feature allows you to determine the antenna
angle that suits you best and to lock it in place.
• The antenna can be removed and stored in the special com-
partment in the right side panel of the transmitter. The next time
you fly, simply thread the antenna into the ball mount. It will
automatically assume the previously set angle.
Note: Do not point your antenna directly at your model heli-
copter. The tip of the antenna is the weakest radio frequency
radiator in any radio controlled transmitter. Instead, have the
antenna at about a 20°– 45° angle away from the model.
