MEAnInG Of SPEcIAl lAnGUAGE: The following terms are used throughout the product literature to indicate various levels of potential harm when operating this product: nOTIcE: Procedures, which if not properly followed, create a possibility of physical property damage AND a little or no possibility of injury. CAUTIOn: Procedures, which if not properly followed, create the probability of physical property damage AND a possibility of serious injury. [. . . ] If using a regulator, it's important the above tests are done for an extended period of 5 minutes. When current passes through a regulator, heat is generated. This heat causes the regulator to increase resistance, which in turn causes even more heat to build up (thermal runaway). While a regulator may provide adequate power for a short duration, it's important to test its ability over time as the regulator may not be able to maintain voltage at significant power levels. For really large aircraft or complex models (for example 35% and larger or jets), multiple battery packs with multiple switch harnesses are necessary or in many cases one of the commercially available power boxes/ busses is recommended. No matter what power systems you choose, always carry out test #1 above making sure that the receiver is constantly provided with 4. The latest generation of Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries incorporates a new chemistry mandated to be more environmentally friendly. These batteries, when charged with peak detection fast chargers, have a tendency to false peak (not fully charge) repeatedly. these include all brands of NiMH batteries. If using NiMH packs be especially cautious when charging making absolutely sure that the battery is fully charged. It is recommended to use a charger that can display total charge capacity. Note the number of mAh put into a discharged pack to verify it has been charged to full capacity. Following are a few common questions from customers: 1. Q: After I've bound the receiver to my transmitter, which do I turn on first when I want to fly?A: Either one, unless you are using a Smart Bind receiver such as the AR6400 or AR6400L. With a Smart Bind receiver, the transmitter must be turned on approximately 5 seconds before the receiver. Q: Sometimes the system takes longer to connect or doesn't connect at all. A: In order for a DSM system to connect, the receiver must receive a large number of uninterrupted signal packets from the transmitter. This process takes just a few seconds, but if the transmitter is too close to the receiver (within 4 feet) or near reflective material (metal objects, carbon fiber materials, tuned pipes, etc. If this happens make sure you are a sufficient distance from metal objects and the receiver itself before you power up and try again. Q: Is it true that DSM systems are less tolerant of low voltage?Using multiple high-voltage servos, however, with an inadequate power supply can allow voltage to momentarily drop below 3.
