It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each ying session. This enables you to
ensure that everything is functioning as it should for maximum enjoyment from your ying time. The T12K
transmitter incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows you to perform such a range
check.
Range check mode
We have installed a special "Range check
mode" for doing a ground range check. To access
the "Range check mode" touch and hold the RTN
button while turning on the transmitter. Doing so
will bring up POWER MODE menu.
To activate the "Range check mode" touch the
RTN button and the range check mode screen will
appear.
During this mode, the RF power output is
reduced so the range test can be performed. In
addition, when this mode is activated the LED on
the front of the transmitter starts blinking and the
transmitter gives users a warning with a beeping
sound every 3 seconds.
The "Range check mode" continues for 90
seconds. After that, power will return to normal.
To exit the "Range check mode" before 90 seconds,
select "RANGE CHECK" at the top of the screen
and touch the RTN button again. This mode is
only available one time, so, if you need to reuse
the function, transmitter power must be cycled.
NEVER start ying when the "Range check mode"
is active.
Should you require additional time to perform
a range check, highlight Restart before your time
expires and press the RTN button 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

Look for loose servo connections or binding
pushrods. Also, be certain that the battery
has been fully charged.

Warning
Do not y in range check mode.
*Since the range of the radio waves is short, if the model
is too far from the transmitter, control will be lost and
the model will crash.
