Receiver Installation and Connection
Installation
To achieve full operating range with your radio system, it is critical that the
receiver antenna be installed properly and undamaged. It should be installed
with as much of the antenna as possible in a vertical position. The end of the
antenna should be contained inside an antenna tube. When installing:
• Ensure there are no kinks in the antenna or antenna tube.
• Never fold the end of the antenna over the tube, this will reduce the
operating range of the system and damage the antenna.
• Ensure the receiver is mounted securely or padded against hard impacts.

CAUTION: NEVER CONNECT A BATTERY WITH VOLTAGE HIGHER THAN 6.0V TO THE
RECEIVER, DOING SO COULD DAMAGE THE ELECTRONICS.
