It is important to correctly install the radio system in
your model. Please read and carefully follow the
suggestions listed below.
1. For added protection, wrap the Rx and the Rx
Nicad in foam rubber that is at least 1/4” thick.
2. Run the Rx antenna through the fuselage and
make sure it is fully extended. Never cut or
bundle your Rx antenna — this will decrease
range and performance.
3. Rubber servo grommets are included with your
radio system and should be installed in the servo
flanges. The servos should then be mounted on
either hardwood rails or a plywood tray with the
mounting screws provided. Do not overtighten
the mounting screws. The flange of the brass
eyelets should face down (toward the wood).
4. All servos must be able to move freely over the
full range of their travel. Make sure the linkages
do not impede servo travel. A stalled servo will
drain the battery pack within a few minutes.
5. Before installing servo output arms, make sure
the servo is in its neutral position.
6. In the case of gas-powered model aircraft, mount
the receiver power switch on the side of the
fuselage opposite the muffler to protect the
switch from exhaust residue. With other types of
models, mount the switch in the most
convenient place. Make sure that the switch
operates freely and is capable of traveling its full
distance.
7. With your model sitting on the ground and the
transmitter antenna collapsed, check that
your system works at a distance of 75 to 100
feet.
If your system stops functioning at a distance
that is shorter than listed above, please contact
the Horizon Service Center for further
information prior to flying your model.
