Optima and Minima Series Receivers cont.
Compatibility:
The OPTIMA & MINIMA receivers are compatible with transmitters using the Hitec AFHSS 2.4 GHz system,
such as, Spectra 2.4 module or dedicated built-in module AFHSS 2.4 Hitec transmitters.
FAIL-SAFE/Hold Mode Selectable:
Servos and other accessories can be set with a FAIL-SAFE point if power to the receiver is lost.
Jumper*:
The jumper is installed at the factory and is used when the receiver is powered by an electronic speed
control, a commercially available B.E.C. (battery eliminator circuit), dedicated 4.8 to 6V. NiMH battery pack,
or regulated Li-Po battery. The jumper is removed when the receiver is powered using the SPC feature.
*These functions/ features are only for OPTIMA series receivers.
