Notes:
1) RailBoss will work with 4 channels, but for two train operation you
need 5 channels.
2) Receivers featuring the “SmartSafe” failsafe are not compatible with
the RailBoss (AR600, AR6310, AR6100, and others. During loss of TX
signal, the receiver elevator channel must stop sending pulses (no
output, zero volts).
Trim Adjustments should be in the center position at all times.
(See Spektrum Tx manual)
Set all Servo Reverser switches to the Normal (down) position.
Set the Hi/Lo Rate switch to HI.
Recommended Radio System:
Purchase a Spektrum DX5e Transmitter (only) from your local hobby
shop or on-line (about $69).
Purchase DSM2 compatible receivers from G-Scale Graphics to in-
sure compatibility and get the lowest cost (about $15).
