[. . . ] 2/3 CHANNELS FOR AIRCRAFT 2FR/3FR 1M23N09002 Thank you for purchasing a Futaba SKYSPORT SS2/SS3. Before using your SKYSPORT SS2/SS3, read this manual carefully and use your R/C set safely. After reading this manual, store it in a safe place. See the glossary page 16 for a definition of the special terms used in this manual. APPLICATION, EXPORT, AND RECONSTRUCTION 1. [. . . ] Then turn on the receiver power switch. When adjusting the digital proportional R/C set, always stop the engine, except when necessary. If the engine suddenly goes to high speed, it may cause an injury. (In case of a set w/ frequency board) When turning off the power switch After stopping the engine, 1. Then turn off the transmitter power switch. If the power switch is turned off in the opposite order, the engine may go to full throttle unexpectedly and cause an injury. *Maximum slow: Direction in which the engine or motor runs at the slowest speed. Power ON When flying, always install the frequency board to the transmitter antenna. When the frequency was changed, also change the frequency board. Power OFF 3 FOR SAFETY NI-CD BATTERY CHARGING PRECAUTIONS (If using a Ni-cd battery) Charge the digital proportional R/C nicd battery with the special charger, or digital proportional R/C quick charger, sold separately. Overcharging may cause burns, fire, injury, blindness, etc. due to overheating, breakage, electrolyte leakage, etc. Use the special charger Always charge the nicd battery before each flight. If the battery goes dead during flight, the plane may crash. FOR SAFETY Do not use commercial nicd penlight batteries. During quick charging, the battery holder contacts may overheat and damage the equipment, or prevent charging. Penlight nicd battery Do not drop or apply strong shock to nicd battery. The battery may be shorted and cause overheating or breakage and electrolyte leakage and result in burns or damage by chemical mater. Use prohibited Do not short the nicd battery connectorterminals. Shorting the terminals may cause sparking and overheating and result in burns or fire. Shock prohibited STORAGE AND DISPOSAL PRECAUTIONS Do not leave the digital proportional R/C set, battery, model airplane, etc. within the reach of small children. Touching and operating the digital proportional R/C set, or licking the battery, may cause injury or damage due to chemical matter. Do not throw the nicd battery into a fire or heat the nicd battery. Also, do not disassemble or rebuild the nicd battery. (If using a Nicd battery) Breakage, overheating, and electrolyte leakage may cause injury, burns, or blindness. 4 When not flying the model, store the digital proportional R/C set with the nicd battery in the discharged state. Recharge the nicd battery before the next flight. (If using a Nicd battery) If a partially discharged nicd battery is recharged many times, its memory effect will reduce the flight time substantially and may cause a crash, even if the battery is recharged. Nicd battery electrolyte The electrolyte in the nicd battery is a strong alkali and can cause blindness if it gets in the eyes. If you get the electrolyte in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with water and see a doctor. If you get the electrolyte on your skin or clothes, it may cause a burn. (If using a Nicd battery) Do not store the digital proportional R/C set in the following places: -Where it is very hot (40C/104F or more) or very cold (-10C/-14F or less). -Where the set will be exposed to direct sunlight. Storing the digital proportional R/C set in the places above may cause distortion and trouble. If the digital proportional R/C set will not be used for a long time, remove the batteries from the transmitter and the model and store them in a dry place. If the batteries are left in the transmitter and model, the battery electrolyte may leak out and degrade the performance and shorten the life of the transmitter and model. Nicd battery recycling Used nicd batteries are an important resource. Stick tape over the terminals and take the used batteries to a nicd battery recycling center. (If using a Nicd battery) OTHER PRECAUTIONS Always use Genuine Futaba transmitter, receiver, servos, FET amp, nicd battery, and other optional parts. Futaba is not responsible for damage, etc. caused by the use of parts other than Genuine Futaba parts. Use the parts deUse genuine parts scribed in the instruction manual and catalogs. Do not get fuel, waste oil, etc. on plastic parts. The plastic may melt and fail to function. 5 FOR SAFETY BEFORE USE SET CONTENTS After opening the carton, first check if the following items are provided. ·Servo mounting parts: Grommet, Brass eyelet, Screw Use the horn set screw supplied with the servo. If a long screw is used, the interior of the servo may be damaged. 8 TRANSMITTER OPERATION AND MOVEMENT OF EACH SERVO Before making any adjustments, learn the operation of the transmitter and the movement of each servo. CHANNEL 1 RUDDER OPERATION When the rudder stick is moved to the right, the rudder moves to the right and the nose points to the right, relative to the direction of flight. When the rudder stick is moved to the left, the rudder moves to the left and the nose points to the left and the direction of travel of the plane changes. AILERON OPERATION When the aileron stick is moved to the right, the right aileron is raised and the left aileron is lowered, relative to the direction of flight, and the plane turns to the right. When the aileron stick is moved to the left, the ailerons move in the opposite direction. [. . . ] If this does not correct the trouble, please contact a Futaba dealer. Check point Transmitter/receiver battery Check item Dead battery. Dirty contacts. Action Replace the battery. Reload the batteries in the correct polarity. [. . . ]
