Installing the Transmitter Batteries
Your Spektrum DXe Transmitter comes prebound to the aircraft.
Remove the battery cover, install the four included batteries (noting proper polarity)
and reinstall the battery cover.
Low Battery Alarm
When the transmitter battery voltage drops below 4.7 volts, an alarm sounds and
the voltage LEDs fl ash. The batteries must be replaced immediately. If this happens
while fl ying, land your aircraft as soon and as safely as possible.
CAUTION: If using rechargeable batteries, charge only rechargeable
batteries. Charging non-rechargeable batteries may cause the batteries to
burst, resulting in injury to persons and/or damage to property.

Explanation of DXe Transmitter LEDs, Switches and Modes for the Apprentice.
Trainer/Bind/Panic Switch (B):
This switch is used as both the trainer and bind switch as well as the Panic
Switch for your Apprentice STS. For complete binding instructions, refer to the
binding section below. When using the trainer function, connect the trainer cord
(SPM6805) into the trainer port in both the master (instructor) and the slave (student)
transmitters. The master transmitter must be powered ON and bound to the receiver.
The slave transmitter must be powered OFF. Any time you press and hold the trainer
button on the master, it will give control authority to the slave. Releasing the trainer
button returns control to the master.
IMPORTANT: The slave transmitter must always have the same settings as the
master. See Flight Training section for setup of other Spektrum Transmitters.
Hi/Lo Rate Switch (J ):
This switch supports high and low rate functions on aileron, elevator and rudder
channels. In the upper, or “HI” position, servo travel is 100% on these channels. In the
lower, or “LO,” position, servo travel decreases to 70%. This switch lets you quickly
change control rates from high for aggressive maneuvers to low for smooth, precise
maneuvers. When learning to fl y, use low rate.
Channel 5 Switch (C):
This switch is used to select the SAFE Flight mode. For other conventional receivers,
this switch controls a servo connected to the Channel 5/Gear port.
LEDs (D) show:
Flashing with beeps Bind mode when Trainer (Bind) switch is held and the
transmitter is powered on (see Binding instructions).
Pulsates with one low tone beep every 2 seconds (when transmitter battery
voltage drops below 4.7 volts). Replace the batteries immediately. If this happens
while fl ying, land your aircraft as soon and as safely as possible.
