● Countermeasures Against Noise Keep antenna cable away from all sources of noise! Noise is generated in any area where a large amount of Carbon Fiber Chassis Battery Pack isisee electric current is flowing. Position the receiver and NNoo antenna cable as far away from the motor, battery, ESC, and their associated cables as possible. (Metal or carbon oisi see N NNo fiber chassis components will also conduct electricity Noo iiss ee Receiver and generate noise.) Motor Since R/C models are controlled via radio signals, taking appropriate measures against noise generated by isisee on-board equipment is of utmost importance. Take NNoo adequate measures against noise so that your machine NNoo can fully realize your driving potential. isisee ESC Silicon Cables ● Receiver Installation on a Carbon Fiber Chassis When installing the receiver to the chassis or R/C equipment deck/tray, use two or more pieces of thick double-sided tape to raise the receiver off the chassis surface. By increasing the separation between the see oisi receiver and the noise-generating carbon-fiber chassis NNo components, the effects of noise can be decreased. ※Install the receiver so that its LEDs are visible. isisee NNoo Double-Sided Tape ● Antenna Installation Raise the antenna cable vertically from as high a position as possible. Insert the antenna cable into the antenna pipe so that the tip of the antenna aligns with the end of the pipe. Make the length of cable which runs between the receiver and the pipe as short as possible and position the antenna holder as close to the receiver as possible. Position the antenna cable away from sources of noise such as the chassis and R/C equipment deck/tray. Use an antenna pipe and antenna mount that are made from plastic, since metal parts will conduct noise. Signal Receiving Section Antenna Cable e iisse ※Do not bend or cut the antenna cable.
