a range testing system which, when the bind button on the back of the transmitter is pressed and
held, reduces the output power, allowing a range check.
How should I range test my Spektrum radio?
With the model resting on the ground, stand 30 paces (approx. 90 feet) away from the model.
Face the model with the transmitter in your normal flying position and depress and hold the bind
button on the back of the transmitter. This causes reduced power output from the transmitter.
You should have total control of the model with the button depressed at 30 paces (90 feet).
If control issues exist, call the Spektrum Service Center at before you fly the model 1-877-504-
0233 for further assistance. If your model does not perform a good range test DO NOT FLY
YOUR MODEL until the problem is resolved.
DX6
I´ve had some issues using retracts with Spektrum Smart Safe. What is going on?
Several customers have experienced an issue using retracts with the DX6 and DX7 radios.
The Issue-With the transmitter turned on and the retract switch in the down position, when the
receiver is switched on the retract servo momentarily drives to the retracted position (wheels up)
for 2-5 seconds and then the servo is driven to the down position.
The Cause- Smart safe failsafe drives the servos to their preset failsafe positions for several
seconds when the receiver is first turned on during the period that the receiver is making
connection with the transmitter. (2-5 seconds) If the preset failsafe position for retracts is in the
up position, when the receiver is first turned on the retracts will be driven to the up position until
the receiver connect with the transmitter.
The Solution- Rebind the system with the retracts in the up position thus setting the failsafe
position to up (not down).The when the system is first turned on the retract servo will be driven to
the down position until the transmitter connects to the receiver.
The DX6 is limited to parkflyers only. Is this because it has limited range?
Testing the range of the DX6 transmitter and AR6000 receiver in open space generally results in
total control beyond the point at which you can see the model. The issue arises when a significant
volume of conductive material is located near the receiver. Since park flyers and mini helicopters
have limited conductive materials, these issues don't occur and they fly perfectly with 2.4GHz
DSM technology.
How much time will the DX6 transmitter operate on a single charge?
The DX6 comes with a 600mAh Nicad pack. The transmitter's current draw is 280mA, so
typically you'll get over two hours of flight time on a full charge. If more flight time is desired,
Expert offers a 1500mAh and 2500mAh NiMH pack that offers over five hours of flight time per
charge.
Can I use digital and high current draw servos with the AR6000 receiver?
Yes. All types of common servos from the popular manufacturers are compatible with the DX6
system, including digital servos.
Can I use the 3-channel SR3000, SR3100, or SR3500 surface receivers with my DX6?
The surface receivers use a different protocol and will not operate with the DX6.
What is SmartSafe?
SmartSafe is a unique form of fail-safe that prevents unexpected motor startup when connecting
the battery and shuts off the motor if the signal is lost. The AR6000 receiver incorporates a
