Radio installation
Servos
Before installing your radio into your model, connect the receiver, servos,
and switch harness/battery pack as shown. In addition to checking for proper
operation, this "bench test" will help you to become familiar with the operation
of your radio. After connecting the model component s, extend both the
transmitter and receiver antennas to their full length. Begin by turning on
the transmitter, and then turn on the receiver switch. Make sure that all
servos 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.
Mount the servos as recommende d in your model's instruction manual,
Follow these general guidelines for servo mounting.
Receiver installation
Note the location of the receiver in your model's instruction manual or building
plans.
NOTE
We assume that all areas where large currents are flowing are generating
noise, and noise is a type of radio wave. It is important to reduce the
possibility of interference by locating a fine position for receiver and
antenna.
HELPFUL HINT
Switch
Harness
Always 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 receiver
antenna.
Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.
If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise will
reduce range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.
Make sure your motor is equipped with noise suppressi on diodes or
capacitors.
Receiver
Used on gas powered model
WARNING
Always follow the "transmitter on first, off last" procedure. A good way
to remember this is to remind yourself to always have your receiver
"listening" to the transmitter. If you turn the transmitter off prior to
turning off the receiver, the receiver has nothing to "listen to", and
this condition can sometimes damage the servo output gear train
because of "jitters" or excessive servo travel beyond normal limits.
NOTE
FET servo wire (7.2V) can also generate noise, position them as far
away as possible from the receiver and the antenna.
Position the crystal side at the top instead of the bottom side. Please refer
to the following diagrams.
Many modelers prefer to install their receiver into the model at this point,
with no further protection. Another sizeable group of modelers prefer to go
a 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 servo
and battery wires.
The advantage of the plastic wrap is the protection against fuel or oil in the
event of a major crash. The disadvantage of the plastic, especially if you
run the model in very hot and humid conditions or wet days, is that moisture
can accumulate inside the receiver.
Crystal
Space available in your model will determine how much padding can be
placed 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/C
foam is made from natural rubber, which eliminates vibration far better than
synthetic foam, (such as the kind used for packing many consumer times).
CAUTION
Any contact with moisture i.e. water or condensation may cause
malfunction and loss of control.
CAUTION
HELPFUL HINT
The receiver contains precision electronic parts. These parts are
vulnerable to vibration and shock.
If you choose to wrap your receiver in both foam and a plastic bag, it
is recommended to periodically remove the receiver from your model,
remove the foam and bag to let the receiver "air out". This maintenance
procedure will let you determine if any moisture is accumulating in the
protective wrap. Small holes cut into the bag will allow airflow into the
receiver, and eliminate the need for the periodic checks, although you
will lose a certain amount of protection against fuel or oil with this step.
NOTE
When wrapping the receiver, keep in mind that you are trying to cushion
a delicate piece of electronic equipment, so "wrap" the foam, don't
"stretch" it around the receiver.
HELPFUL HINT
Battery installation
It is quite a simple way to isolate the receiver from vibration by attaching
to the chassis or mounting plate with thick double-sided tape.
Always wrap the battery pack in foam, and mount it in the location specified
in your models instructions. It is also recommended to wrap the battery pack
in a plastic bag, as its location (close to engine and fuel tank) makes fuel
proofing vital.
Foam Rubber
Rubber Spacer
Switch installation
Pick the most convenient location for your on/off switch as required by your
particular model. Always mount the switch on the opposite side of the engine
exhaust. After mounting the switch, carefully bundle any excess servo wires
with cable ties, keeping them away from any moving item (pushrod, servo
arm, etc.) that could catch and cut the wires. Any empty space in your
fuselage radio compartment can be filled with excess foam.
Two Layers
Receiver antenna
CAUTION
Refer to your model's instructions for the location desired for the receiver
antenna to exit the Body or Fuselage. A general guideline is to exit the
antenna 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, to
avoid 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 IS
YOUR MODELS "LINK" TO THE TRANSMITTER. Take care to eliminate
any chance of the antenna wire being caught or tangled in the prop, wheels,
etc.
If a connector is not fully inserted, vibration may cause the connector
to work loose while the model is operating. This will result in loss of
control.
Battery power
Turn the power switch on to check. As the LED light begins to flash, it is
time to change the cells.
Linkages
Once satisfied with the pushrods, attach them to the servo arm/horn per
your models instructions. Then operate each servo horn over its full stroke
and check to see that the linkage does not bind or is not too loose.
NOTE
The receiver antenna may seem long. The length of the receiver antenna
is critical to the proper operation of your radio. Do not cut or alter from
the original length for any reason, or you might severely limit the range
of the system, and the receiver would become considerably more
susceptible to interference and high frequency noise that will result in
loss of range and control.
CAUTION
Before connecting the pushrods or control cables, make certain that
there is no binding or unnecessary drag on the controls. Excessive
force applied to the servo horn by binding or poor installation may lead
to excessive power consumption by the servos and will quickly drain
the receiver pack as well as make your model perform poorly.
Functions
Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come in
contact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch other
metal parts under vibration.
Servo Reversing
It is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output direction of
the servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual servo can be
changed by simply flipping the reversing switch that corresponds to the
channel number on the receiver where the servo is plugged in.
NOTE
The high frequency noise generated by this contact will cause interference
and possible loss of control.
Final Checks
Once you have completed the radio installation to your satisfaction, then
test the operation of the system before hooking up any push rods or control
cables.
Adjustments
With all transmitter trim levers set in their neutral position, turn on the radio
system and reconfirm proper control directions. Adjust the pushrods mechanically to achieve neutral centered control with neutral transmitter trim.
Connecting
The design, engineering, and production staffs at Ace R/C wish you might
happy running with your new SkyMaster T4 FM radio system.
Check the receiver, servos, and battery connectors; to be sure they are firmly
connected.
