HOW AR600 FAILSAFE WORKS
RECEIVER POWER ONLY
• Whenthereceiveronlyisturnedon(notransmitter
signal is present), the throttle channel has no output—
to avoid operating or arming the electronic speed
control.
• Allotherchannelswillhavenooutputsignal.
Note: Some analog servos will coast slightly even
though there is no signal present. This is normal.
AFTER CONNECTION
• Whenthetransmitteristurnedon,andafterthereceiver
connects to the transmitter, normal control of all
channels occurs.
• Afterthesystemmakesaconnection,iflossofsignal
occurs, the AR600 Smartsafe drives the throttle servo
only to its preset Smartsafe position (low throttle) that
was set during binding.
• Allotherchannelswillholdtheirlastcommanded
position.
SERVO REVERSING
The DX5e features servo reversing on channels 1–4. The
switches are located at the lower front of the transmitter
and are used to select the direction of each channel. Use
a small screwdriver to change the switch position to
normal or reverse.
HI/LO RATE
The DX5e offers a high/low rate function on aileron,
elevator and rudder. When the HI/LO rate switch is in the
“HI” position, 100% travel is achieved on the aileron,
elevator and rudder channels. When the switch is in the “LO”
position a reduced travel of 70% is achieved on the aileron,
elevator and rudder channels. This is useful allowing
the aircraft to have a high control rate (switch in the “HI”
position) for aggressive maneuvers and a low control rate
(switch in “LO” position) for smooth, precise maneuvers.

ELEVON/ DELTA MIXING
The DX5e offers an Elevon mix. Elevon (also called delta
wing) mixing combines the function of ailerons with the
function of the elevator to allow precise control of both roll
and pitch for delta wing aircraft. To activate the Elevon mix,
move the mix switch to the on (up) position.

Note: If proper servo direction cannot be achieved
with the servo reversing switches, swap the servo input
leads from AILE to ELEV or vice versa.
