Connect servos, 4-cell battery pack and switch harness to the receiver as shown above.
Turn on the transmitter, then turn on the receiver switch harness.
Center the steering and throttle trim adjustments and make sure all servos operate according to transmitter movements.
Turn off the system, receiver first, then transmitter.
install the entire radio system Into your model as shown in the model's instruction manual (see above tor proper channel usage).
It you need to reverse the direction in which a servo rotates, locate the servo reversing switch tor that particular channel on the fact
