(The display screen is an example. The
screen depends on the model type.)
The Failsafe function may be used to set up
positions that the servos move to in the case of
radio interference.
You may set either of two positions for each
channel: Hold, where the servo maintains its last
commanded position, or failsafe, where each
servo moves to a predetermined position. You may
choose either mode for each channel.
The T12K system also provides you with an
advanced battery monitoring function that warns
you when the receiver battery has only a little
power remaining. In this case, each servo is
moved to the dened failsafe position. The battery
failsafe may be released by operating a predened
control on the transmitter (default is throttle),
do not continue to fly, land as soon as possible.
Remember, if the predefined control suddenly
moves to a position you did not command, land at

when receiver battery voltage becomes low.
Warning
For safety, always set the fail safe functions.
●Remember to set the throttle channel fail safe function so that
the servo moves to the maximum slow side for airplanes and
to the slow side from the hovering position for helicopters.
Crashing of the model at full high when normal radio waves
cannot be received due to interference, etc., is very dangerous.
●If the battery fail safe is reset by the throttle stick, it may
be mistaken for an engine malfunction and will be reset at
throttle slow and the model will continue to y. If you have
any doubts, immediately land.
