Charging the battery
CAUTION
General notes on safety and handling LiPo batteries
• NEVER leave a LiPo battery unattended when in charge.
Charge the batteries only in rooms where a smoke detector is
installed.
• ALWAYS control the battery and the charger during the entire
charge process.
• ALWAYS charge the batteries on a non-flammable surface.
• ALWAYS keep an extinguisher suitable for Lithium “Class type
D” when charging LiPo batteries.
• NEVER charge LiPo batteries at a higher rate than 1C („C“
means the indicated capacity of the battery).
• NEVER charge the LiPo battery with a charger which does not
detect the full charge state of the battery. Over-warming or inflat-
ing of the LiPo cells indicates a problem and the LiPo battery
should be disconnected from the charger and brought to a fire-
safe place.
• ALWAYS interrupt the charge or discharge process of a LiPo
battery if you detect smoke or if the battery slowly inflates. Let

the battery stay for at least 30 minutes in a fire-safe place. Do
not use the battery any more and dispose it as indicated.
The 1000 mAh, 7,4 V LiPo battery suits a 3 poles balancer con-
nector though which it can be charged with normal RC battery
chargers (not included in the package). Follow the instruction
manual of your charger to set the proper options to charge a 1A
7,4V LiPo battery. Some battery chargers require discharge
cables to be connected. Use the discharge cable adapter
included in the package to use those kind of chargers. Do not
charge with current higher than 1A!
Note (1): : If the charger fails to announce charge complete, but
is showing battery voltage at 8.4V, the charge can be consid-
ered finished.
Note (2): If battery becomes fully discharged or accidentally
shorted, an internal safety circuit will trip. To reset the battery,
tap 9V direct to the barrel connector via the discharge adapter
cable’s banana connector (black = GND, red = 9V). This will
instantly reset the battery and it can be recharged as normal.

No.48326, 5,8 GHz 25mW FPV transmitter
The ImmersionRC 25mW transmitter is based on the super sta-
ble 5.8GHz band NexwaveRF and Fatshark compatible. It fea-
tures its own 5V output for the FPV camera with the standard
5-pin connector, which makes it plug-and-play capable with
most systems. These characteristics make it one of the best CE
certified FPV transmitters which are currently available.

Operational advice
• For best performance, select a channel that has the least
amount of interference. While the transmitter is turned OFF, turn
on the video headset and look at the screen as you check each
channel. Clear channels will have a consistent static back-
ground. Channels with interference will have horizontal static
lines.
• Always perform a range test before flying. This includes AV and
RC controls. Some RC receivers can be affected by the proxim-
ity of other electronic devices particularly the AV TX.
• Try to space out your components as much as possible to
avoid interference to your RC control range (keep stuff away
from RX)
• Until experienced, practice flying in a familiar area to avoid
becoming disorientated.
• Due to antenna characteristics, there is a “null” in line with
antenna direction. You may experience excessive video breakup
when flying overhead.
• 5.8Ghz signal strength drops off very fast, stay safely within
solid AV range.
• For maximum distance it is very important that a clear line of
sight exists between the transmitter and the video headset. 2 of
the worst causes of interference are human bodies and rein-
forced concrete.
• Place your TX antenna in open area in a vertical orientation.
• Multipathing (reflections off buildings/ tall objects) causes sig-
nal cancellation and result in broken video. Fly in open areas
away from buildings or other tall structures (i.e. barns, hills).
• 5.8Ghz AV with 2.4Ghz RC controllers: 2.4Ghz may cause
harmonic interference on Ch2 – Ch7 of the 5.8Ghz AV (Ch1 not
affected). The headset has been equipped with a high pass filter
that will allow the system to work with CE certified 2.4Ghz RC
controllers. However, the filtering may be insufficient to remove
noise from overpowered non CE certified controllers.
If you experience interference from your RC radio, change the
AV channel to channel 1.
• Although you don’t require any license to operate this device,
you are still legally responsible for operating in a responsible
manner.
