1 Introduction
The weatronic 2.4 Dual FHSS series of products have been developed in Germany by a selected team of electronic engineers and IT experts. The result
is to have produced a system which is at the cutting edge of today’s technology manufactured to exacting standards from the latest components.
The very highest quality standards and the best possible level of reliability were the design criteria and every component is subjected to an extensive
visual and computer controlled electronic testing to ensure the highest standards possible. All of the research and development work was conducted
in Germany and our products are assembled in Germany where the casings are also made, a product which really is ‘Made in Germany’.
All components used to construct the weatronic 2.4 Dual FHSS RC-Systems are CE tested and approved and meet not only the current EU (ETSI)
requirements but also those of the American Communications Commission (FCC). All of our products have been vigorously flight tested under the
most exerting conditions and we have concentrated on developing a system which provides the ultimate in resistance to interference as well as unsur-
passed reliability. To make the most of this systems potential and to obtain the best results please take the time to read these instructions thoroughly
as only then will you be able to exploit the full potential of our 2.4 Dual FHSS Radio Control System.
The Certificates of Conformity for both the ETSI and the FCC are contained in Annex 3 of this handbook.

3 Safety Advice
The weatronic 2.4 Dual FHSS radio control systems have been exclusively produced for controlling models, in particular for use with model aircraft
or model helicopters and as such they may only be used for that purpose. Children under the age of 14 should only be allowed to operate radio
controlled models under the supervision of an adult. Weatronic will accept no liability for the incorrect use of its products.
3.1 At the Flying Field
Only ever operate your models on approved flying sites and always show respect and consideration for other pilots. Stand
close to the other pilots so that you can warn them of when you taking off and landing and pay attention to what they tell
you as this will reduce the risk of accidents when models are close to the ground. Keep you model within the sector allo-
cated for flying in and never over-fly spectators, other pilots or anyone else who may be in the vicinity.
The weatronic 2.4 Dual FHSS system can safely be operated along-side transmitters using the 35 or 72 MHz bands with no risk of interference.
Checking frequencies is not necessary and it is quite safe to have up to 120 weatronic systems operating simultaneously.
