Unlike 2.4GHz system the FM/PPM or PCM radios, use an extendable steel antenna. Therefore, the method of range check has to be different. Lower the transmitter antenna all the way to reduce the transmitter signal range to minimum level.Once the antenna collapsed it will shortening the range to approximately 30 meters or 100 feet. During the range check process, you should walk away from the secured aircraft carrying the transmitter to a minimum distance of approximately 30 meters or 100 feet without control loss.Warning!- Do the range check before each ying session to conrm the radio system is working properly.- Do the range check before the engine or motor is started.- Turn on the system as explained above and make sure all servos and control surfaces are working properly during the range check process within the range.- If any control surface is not moving properly, DO NOT y the aircraft until the problem is solved.- If you are unable to accomplish a successful range check of 30 meters or 100 feet, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY.Connecting (Frequency Setting)Spectra Pro uses synthesize technology does not require classic crystal chips to change its frequencies. Plug into the Aurora 9 transmitter and select your preferred Frequency Channel matches with your receivers. In the case of multiple models are being used from one transmitter, you can connect as many Hitec receivers to your transmitter as necessary, one model per one model memory will be used.Use one of the following connecting meth-ods to add additional Hitec receivers to your transmitter.Note- Connecting must be established within 15 feet of the transmitter and receiver.- Make sure there is no one next to you are in connecting process.- In case of synthesized receiver is being used for the connecting process, setup the frequency channel from the Aurora 9 rst then turn on the receiver.
