incorporates diversity antennas, offering the security of dual path RF redundancy
By locating these antennas in slightly different locations in the aircraft, each antenna is exposed to its own RF environment,
greatly improving path diversity (the ability for the receiver to see the signal in all conditions).

OLARIZATION
For optimum RF link performance it’s important that the antennas be mounted in an orientation
that allows for the best possible signal reception when the aircraft is in all possible attitudes and
positions. This is known as antenna polarization. The antennas should be oriented perpendicular to
each other; typically vertical and horizontal and at different angles.

ORE DIVERSITY AND BETTER SIGNAL RECEPTION
For bigger aircrafts, 600 and more size helicopters, gas aircrafts or long range projects you don’t want to give a chance for a signal loss.
To improve the reception and reduce risks of signal loss you can attach up to two satellite receivers to the main receiver.
Using two additional OrangeRx R110XL 2.4Ghz Satellite Receivers you will get 6(six!!) antennas receiving the signal at the same time.
The antennas should be oriented in different directions and satellites placed at the different sides of the aircraft.

IRCRAFT
In gas and glow aircraft install the main receiver using the same method you would use to install
a conventional receiver in your aircraft. Typically, wrap the main receiver in protective foam and
fasten it in place using rubber bands or hook and loop straps. Alternately, in electric airplanes
or helicopters, it’s acceptable to use thick double-sided foam tape to fasten the receiver in
place. Mounting receiver antennas and satellites (if used) in slightly different locations,
gives tremendous improvements in path diversity. Essentially, each receiver/satellite sees
a different RF environment and this is key to maintaining a solid RF link, even in aircraft that have
substantial conductive materials (e.g. larger gas engines, carbon fiber, pipes, etc.), which can weaken
the signal.

INDING PROCEDURE
1. Install a bind plug into BIND connector. In case if you want to disable telemetry function on the receiver, install second bind
plug into THRO connector.
2. Apply power to the receiver. It can be from 3.7 to 9.6 volts DC. Please refer to picture on the side of the receiver for the correct pinout
(GND, VCC, SIGNAL)
3. You will see the orange LED rapidly blinking. That means the receiver is in Bind mode.
Please note: If you installed second bind plug into THRO connector, both Orange LED and Red LED will blink simultaneously. That
means that the receiver is in BIND mode and TM function is disabled.
