Safe Handling of Radio and Precautions
Warning Note Precautions for Safe Use

● 2.4GHz frequency band is not only used for radio control. This frequency band is shared with ISM
(Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band. In urban areas, it can be affected by microwave oven, wireless
LAN, digital cordless telephone, audio equipment, Bluetooth of game machine or cell phones, and short-
range communication such as VICS. Moreover, be careful about being affected by amateur radio and
premises radio station for moving body identification, since this frequency band is used for them as
well. When harmful radio wave interference is provided to existing radio station, immediately stop the
transmission of radio frequency and take measures to avoid the interference.
● For RC circuit, minimise the use of equipment that can affect 2.4GHz system and make sure to check
the safety beforehand. Moreover, follow the instructions given by the facility manager.
● When it is to be operated behind the building or steel lower, blocking the direction of radio wave
transmission can cause reduction of manoeuvring response or manoeuvring ability. Therefore, always
operate within the range that you can visually check.
● Do not attach any metal parts like clip etc. to the built-in part of transmitter antenna.
● If the built-in part of transmitter antenna is extremely close to a servo or speed controller other than
the receiver, it can cause malfunction. However, it is an influence of a strong high frequency output and
it is not abnormal.
● The receiver is a precise instrument. Do not subject it to strong impact or vibrations. Use the thick
sponge to prevent vibrations.
● Keep the antenna wire of the receiver out as much as possible, keep it straight, and stretched. Do not
cut or bend the extra length of the antenna line.
● Do not place the antenna wire of the receiver close to noise source like motor code or battery code.
● When installing the receiver on a metallic chassis or a carbon chassis, use by layering with double-sided
tape to keep the receiver away from the chassis as much as possible.

● When performing BIND for RX-482, RC-481, RX-472, RX-471, RX-47T, RX-462, RX-461 do it by setting RF MODE (output
method) as FH4T.
● When performing BIND for RX-451, RX-451R, RX-381, RX-380 do it by setting RF MODE (output method) as FH3.
● If the type of receiver and MODULATION setting is wrong, BIND setting cannot be done hence take care.
● RX-481 and RX-471 operate in any of the modes FH4T and FH3 but in order to exhibit the future performance of receiver
use it in FH4T.
● When settings in BIND menu and response mode settings (SUR/SSR/SHR/NOR) of the channel are done after performing
BIND, perform BIND again. If re-BIND is not performed the settings changes are not reflected.

● RX-491 Dual ID
・Only 1 receiver ID (Identification number) can be stored in the conventional receiver of 2.4GHz. However, it is
possible to store 2 IDs in RX-491.It is possible to combine M17 in which the driver is matched with the settings
and position of individual preference like endurance race etc.
It is possible to operate with 2 bound receivers by storing (BIND) the ID of 2 peculiar transmitters to the
receivers. (Note: 2 transmitters cannot be simultaneously operated.) The corresponding transmitter is M17 only.
・The neutral position of the throttle and operation amount may vary depending on individual transmitter.
The setting values of the transmitter may not be the same depending on the combination of the bound
transmitter. Adjust with each transmitter according to the linkage of the car body.
・Always perform fail-safe setting with each transmitter.
