Battery Recycling (for U.S.A.)

The RBRC™SEAL on the (easily removable) nickel-cadmium battery

and nickel-metal-hydride battery contained in Futaba products indicates

that Futaba Corporation of America is voluntarily participating in an in-

dustry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their

useful lives, when taken out of service within the United States. The

RBRC™ program provides a convenient alternative to placing used nickel-cadmium

batteries and nickel-metal-hydride batteries into the trash or municipal waste system,

which is illegal in some areas.

You may contact your local recycling center for information on where to return the

spent battery. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on NiCd/NiMH battery

recycling in your area. Futaba Corporation of America's involvement in this program

is part of its commitment to protecting our environment and conserving natural re-

sources.

NOTE: Our instruction manuals encourage our customers to return spent batteries

ｎWarning

ｎCaution

ｊWhen using the T4PL in the high speed (HIGH) mode, always use it under the following condi-

tions:

Servos :Futaba digital servo (including BLS Series brushless servos)

Receiver’s battery :Matched to the ratings of the receiver and connected digital servo (dry cell battery cannot be used).

Transmitter mode :HIGH mode (See p.42 for setting method.

)

Under other conditions, the set will not operate, or the speciﬁed performance will not be displayed even if it operates.

In addition, it may cause servo trouble. Futaba will not be responsible for damage, etc. caused by combination with the

products of other companies.

In addition, the FSU Fail Safe Unit cannot be used because the system is different. Use the fail safe function of the

transmitter.

ｊWhen using analog servos, always switch the T4PL servo response to the "NORM" mode.

Transmitter mode :"

NORM

mode (See p.42 for setting method.)

Receiver’s battery :Matched to the ratings of the receiver and connected servo (dry cell battery cannot be used).

The set cannot operate in the "HIGH" mode. Operation in this mode will cause trouble with the servo and other equipment.

Digital servos (including BLS Series brushless servos) can also be used in the "NORM" mode.

For Your Safety As Well As That Of Others

Use this product in a safe manner. Please observe the following safety precautions at all

times.

Explanation of Symbols

The parts of this manual indicated by the following symbols are extremely important

and must be observed.

ｎWarning

ｎCaution

Symbols Explanation

2.4GHz System Precautions

ｊSpecial attention should be paid before turning on the system while other cars are running or

other airplanes are ﬂying because the 2.4GHz RC system could potentially affect them.

ｊBe sure to set the Fail Safe function.

High Speed Mode Precautions

ｎWarning

For Your Safety As Well As That Of Others

ｌ

Do not operate outdoors on rainy days, run through puddles of water or use when visibility is limited.

Should any type of moisture (water or snow) enter any component of the system, erratic operation and loss of control

may occur.

ｌDo not operate in the following places.

-Near other sites where other radio control activity may occur.

-Near people or roads.

-On any pond when passenger boats are present.

-Near high tension power lines or communication broadcasting antennas.

Interference could cause loss of control. Improper installation of your Radio Control System in your model could result in

serious injury.

Operation Precautions

ｌDo not operate this R/C system when you are tired, not feeling well or under the inﬂuence of

alcohol or drugs.

Your judgment is impaired and could result in a dangerous situation that may cause serious injury to yourself as well as

others.

ｌDo not touch the engine, motor, speed control or any part of the model that will generate heat

while the model is operating or immediately after its use.

These parts may be very hot and can cause serious burns.

ｊAlways perform an operating range check prior to use.

Problems with the radio control system as well as improper installation in a model could cause loss of control.

(Simple range test method)

Have a friend hold the model, or clamp it down or place it where the wheels or prop cannot come in contact with

any object. Walk away and check to see if the servos follow the movement of the controls on the transmitter. Should

you notice any abnormal operation, do not operate the model. Also check to be sure the model memory matches the

model in use.

ｊTurning on the power switches.

Always check the throttle trigger on the transmitter to be sure it is at the neutral position.

1. Turn on the transmitter power switch.

2. Turn on the receiver or speed control power switch.

Turning off the power switches

Always be sure the engine is not running or the motor is stopped.

1. Turn off the receiver or speed control power switch.

2. Then turn off the transmitter power switch.

If the power switches are turned off in the opposite order, the model may unexpectedly run out of control and cause a

very dangerous situation.

ｊWhen making adjustments to the model, do so with the engine not running or the motor discon-

nected.

You may unexpectedly lose control and create a dangerous situation.

ｎCaution

For Your Safety As Well As That Of Others

(Only when NiMH/NiCd batteries are used)

NiMH / NiCd Battery Handling Precautions

ｌNever plug the charger into an outlet of other than the indicated voltage.

Plugging the charger into the wrong outlet could result in an explosion or ﬁre.

ｌNever insert or remove the charger while your hands are wet.

You may get an electric shock.

ｌDo not use the transmitter's battery, HT5F1700B, as the receiver's battery.

Since the transmitter's battery has an overload protection circuit, the output power will be shut down when the high cur-

rent load is applied. This may result in runaway or fatal crash.

ｌDo not use commercial AA size NiCd and NiMH batteries.

Quick charging may cause the battery contacts to overheat and damage the battery holder.

ｌDo not short circuit the battery terminals.

A short circuit across the battery terminals may cause abnormal heating, ﬁre and burns.

ｌDo not drop the battery or expose it to strong shocks or vibrations.

The battery may short circuit and overheat; electrolyte may leak out and cause burns or chemical damage.

ｊWhen the model is not being used, always remove or disconnect the battery.

Leaving the battery connected could create a dangerous situation if someone accidentally turns on the receiver power

switch. Loss of control could occur.

(Fail safe function)

ｊBefore running (cruising), check the fail safe function.

Check Method; Before starting the engine, check the fail safe function as follows:

1) Turn on the transmitter and receiver power switches.

2) Wait at least one minute, then turn off the transmitter power switch. (The transmitter automatically transfers the fail

safe data to the receiver every minute.)

3) Check if the fail safe function moves the servos to the preset position when reception fails.

The fail safe function is a safety feature that minimizes set damage by moving the servos to a preset position when

reception fails. However, if set to a dangerous position, it has the opposite effect. When the reverse function was

used to change the operating direction of a servo, the fail safe function must be reset.

Setting example: Throttle idle or brake position

ｊAlways check to be sure your batteries have been charged prior to operating the model.

Should the battery go dead while the model is operating, loss of control will occur and create a very dangerous situation.

ｊTo recharge the transmitter battery, use the special charger made for this purpose.

Overcharging could cause the battery to overheat, leak or explode. This may lead to ﬁre, burns, loss of sight and many

other types of injuries.
