An 8cells NiMH rechargeable battery pack and wall charger areenclosed in the box. Please refer the following pictures to install therechargeable battery pack into the transmitter.Radio installationBefore installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"listening" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior toturning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", andthis condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear trainbecause of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.Used on gas powered modelServosMount the servos as recommende d in your model's instruction manual,Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.Receiver installationNote the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or buildingplans.NOTEWe assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generatingnoise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.HELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moisture i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechan-ically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you mighthappy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system. FunctionsServo ReversingIt is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction ofthe servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can bechanged by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to thechannel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in. Final ChecksOnce you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, thentest the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or controlcables.ConnectingCheck the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmlyconnected. Frequency ListBase on the difference countries regulation, you should choose the suitablefrequency to match your countrys rule.

An 8cells NiMH rechargeable battery pack and wall charger areenclosed in the box. Please refer the following pictures to install therechargeable battery pack into the transmitter.Radio installationBefore installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"listening" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior toturning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", andthis condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear trainbecause of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.Used on gas powered modelServosMount the servos as recommende d in your model's instruction manual,Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.Receiver installationNote the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or buildingplans.NOTEWe assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generatingnoise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.HELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moisture i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechan-ically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you mighthappy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system. FunctionsServo ReversingIt is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction ofthe servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can bechanged by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to thechannel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in. Final ChecksOnce you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, thentest the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or controlcables.ConnectingCheck the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmlyconnected. Frequency ListBase on the difference countries regulation, you should choose the suitablefrequency to match your countrys rule. The following table show differenceband(crystal) available for each frequency of Commander series Transmitter Controls1. Right Stick: CH1 & CH2 control for Mode1 type.

An 8cells NiMH rechargeable battery pack and wall charger areenclo sed in the box. Please refe r the following pictures to install therechargeable battery pack into the transmitter.Radio installationBefore installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"listening" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior toturning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", andthis condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear trainbecause of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.Used on gas powered modelServosMount the servos as recommende d in your model's instruction manual,Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.Receiver installationNote the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or buildingplans.NOTEWe assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generatingnoise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.HELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moisture i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechan-ically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you mighthappy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system. FunctionsServo ReversingIt is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction ofthe servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can bechanged by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to thechannel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in. Final ChecksOnce you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, thentest the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or controlcables.ConnectingCheck the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmlyconnected.

It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.CrystalHELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moisture i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechan-ically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you mighthappy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system. FunctionsServo ReversingIt is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction ofthe servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can bechanged by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to thechannel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in. Final ChecksOnce you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, thentest the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or controlcables.ConnectingCheck the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmlyconnected. Frequency ListBase on the difference countries regulation, you should choose the suitablefrequency to match your countrys rule.

In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"liste ning" to the transmitter.

An 8cells NiMH rechargeable battery pack and wall charger areenclo sed in the box. Please refe r the following pictures to install therechargeable battery pack into the transmitter.Radio installationBefore installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"liste ning" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior toturning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", andthis condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear trainbecause of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.Used on gas powered modelServosMount the servos as recommended in your model's instruction manual,Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.Receiver installationNote the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or buildingplans.NOTEWe assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generatingnoise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.HELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moistu re i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechan-ically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you mighthappy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system. FunctionsServo ReversingIt is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction ofthe servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can bechanged by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to thechannel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in. Final ChecksOnce you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, thentest the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or controlcables.ConnectingCheck the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmlyconnected. Frequency ListBase on the difference countries regulation, you should choose the suitablefrequency to match your countrys rule. The following table show differenceband(crystal) available for each frequency of Commander series Transmitter Controls1. Right Stick: CH1 & CH2 control for Mode1 type.

An 8cells NiMH rechargeable battery pack and wall charger areenclo sed in the box. Please refe r the following pictures to install therechargeable battery pack into the transmitter.Radio installationBefore installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"liste ning" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior toturning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", andthis condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear trainbecause of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.Used on gas powered modelServosMount the servos as recommended in your model's instruction manual,Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.Receiver installationNote the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or buildingplans.NOTEWe assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generatingnoise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.HELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moistu re i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions.

An 8cells NiMH rechargeable battery pack and wall charger areenclo sed in the box. Please refe r the following pictures to install therechargeable battery pack into the transmitter.Radio installationBefore installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for properoperation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operationof your radio. After connecting the model components, extend both thetransmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning onthe transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that allservos and trims levers are operating, and take a few moments to "play"with your system. After completion of your bench testing, turn off the receiver,followed by the transmitter.WARNINGAlways follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good wayto remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver"liste ning" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior toturning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", andthis condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear trainbecause of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.Used on gas powered modelServosMount the servos as recommended in your model's instruction manual,Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.Receiver installationNote the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or buildingplans.NOTEWe assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generatingnoise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce thepossibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver andantenna.HELPFUL HINTAlways install the receiver as far as possible from the motor, ESC,NiCd/NiMH batteries, motor wire or other noise sources. Especially,do not route the motor wire next to the receiver, crystal or receiverantenna.Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise willreduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppression diodes orcapacitors.NOTEFET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as faraway as possible from the receiver and the antenna.Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please referto the following diagrams.Space available in your model will determine how much padding can beplaced around the receiver. When the receiver in a good quality foam rubber,such as those available from Du-Bro, Carl Goldberg, Sig, and others. R/Cfoam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better thansynthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).CAUTIONThe receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts arevulnerable to vibration and shock.NOTEWhen wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushiona delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't"stretch" it around the receiver.HELPFUL HINTIt is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attachingto the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to goa step further, and place the foam-wrapped receiver into a plastic bag,secured with a rubber band around the receiver case as well as the servoand battery wires.The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in theevent of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if yourun the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisturecan accumulate inside the receiver.CAUTIONAny contact with moistu re i.e. water or condensation may causemalfunction and loss of control.HELPFUL HINTIf you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, itis recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenanceprocedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in theprotective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into thereceiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although youwill lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.Battery installationAlways wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specifiedin your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery packin a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuelproofing vital.Switch installationPick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by yourparticular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engineexhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wireswith cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servoarm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in yourfuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.Receiver antennaRefer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiverantenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit theantenna from the Body / Fuselage at the closest possible point to the receiver,that is, have as much antenna as possible outside the model.Use a strain relief (a knot will work) where the antenna exits the model, toavoid the antenna being ripped out of the receiver in the case of a mishap.A rubber band works well for this. REMEMBER: THE ANTENNA WIRE ISYOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminateany chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,etc.NOTEThe receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antennais critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter fromthe original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the rangeof the system, and the receiver would become considerably moresusceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result inloss of range and control.CAUTIONIf a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connectorto work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss ofcontrol.Battery powerTurn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it istime to change the cells.LinkagesOnce satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn peryour models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full strokeand check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.CAUTIONBefore connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain thatthere is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessiveforce applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may leadto excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drainthe receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come incontact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch othermetal parts under vibration.NOTEThe high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interferenceand possible loss of control.AdjustmentsWith all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radiosystem and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechan-ically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you mighthappy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system. FunctionsServo ReversingIt is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction ofthe servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can bechanged by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to thechannel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in. Final ChecksOnce you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, thentest the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or controlcables.ConnectingCheck the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmlyconnected. Frequency ListBase on the difference countries regulation, you should choose the suitablefrequency to match your countrys rule.
