BEC RECEIVER : Battery eliminator is installed in the receiver circuitry. The receiver gets power from Ni-
Cd battery for running motor. Ni-Cd battery from 6.0V to 8.4V can be used for the receiver. Higher voltage
Ni-Cd batteries may damage the receiver and servos.
Use only a speed controller which has the exclusive connector for the BEC system.

* A rapid change of frequencies is possible simply
by unplugging an interchangeable plug-in on the
back of the transmitter and then plugging in
another one.
* The use of crystals, other than CARSON’s, may
damage the radio and invalidates our guarantee
for our products.
Receiver
* Plug an interchangeable crystal into the receiver
for a rapid change of frequencies.
* Make sure that the crystal is fully inserted in the
receiver, not partially.

How to change transmitter batteries
Push and

Used correctly, domestic batteries are a
safe and dependable source of portable
power. Problems can occur If they are
misused or abused - resulting in leakage or,
in extreme cases, fire or explosion.
Here are some simple guidelines to safe
battery use designed to eliminate any such
problems.
Store unused batteries in their packaging
and away from metal objects which may
cause a short-circuit resulting in leakage or,
in extreme cases, fire or even an explosion
Never attempt to recharge ordinary
batteries, either in a charger or by applying
heat to them. They may leak, cause fire or
even explode. There are special
rechargeable batteries which are clearly
marked as such.
Take care to fit your batteries correctly,
observing the plus and minus marks on the
battery and appliance. Incorrect fitting can
cause leakage or, in extreme cases, fire or
even an explosion.
Remove dead batteries from equipment and
all batteries from equipment you know you
are not going to use for a long time.
Otherwise the batteries may leak and cause
damage.
Supervise children If they are replacing
batteries themselves in order to ensure
these guidelines are followed.
Replace the whole set of batteries at one
time, taking care not to mix old and new
batteries or batteries of different types,
since this can result in leakage or, in
extreme Gases, fire or even an explosion
Never dispose of batteries in fire as this can
cause them to explode. Do not put dead
batteries in with the normal household
waste. Deliver them at special collecting
institutions.
Make sure battery compartments are
secure.
