Planet T5 2.4ghz 5 Channel Combo Set Mode 2 The Planet T5 transmitter and R6M micro receiver have been designed for crystal-free operation with Park Flyer, indoor aircraft, small electric-type models and work well on model boats. It�s uncomplicated yet sophisticated design makes it an ideal first system or a general purpose sport system for R/C modelling. It uses state-of-the-art computer technology to bind it�s transmitter and receiver in such a fashion that, under most model flying conditions, interference that would normally cause loss of control in 35mHz or 27mHz equipment is nearly always rejected�and in most cases radio functionality is entirely unaffected. This makes for a safer, more reassuring flying experience. It also enables a pilot to turn up, switch on and fly under most conditions�subject to local flying guidelines and rules. Planet T5 features Advanced 2.4GHz control with a highly sensitive 6 gram micro receiver that make it ideal for even the smaller R/C indoor models. The new design single aerial micro receiver is ultra-compact and allows for rapid and convenient installation especially when compared with some 2.4GHz twin-unit multi-aerial receiver designs available.
Binding
2.4Ghz technology creates a �bound� relationship between the Transmitter and Receiver. The 'setup' of this relationship is known as �binding� and can be achieved simply with one click of the R6M's Binding Microswitch.
In a �bound� transmitter/receiver state the receiver is exclusively bound to the transmitter and can only respond to signals received from that transmitter. Binding is done at the factory. Once a transmitter is bound to it�s receiver, re-binding of transmitter and receiver is not normally required.
Planet T5 features:
Simple one-button transmitter/receiver binding
Side & rear ergonomic grips for maximum transmitter security
Steel carry handle and neck strap mount
Precision, adjustable height dual-axis stick units
Front-mounted reversing switch panel
Unique slow-rate retract/flap switch (channel 5)
Low power consumption 4-cell transmitter
Lightweight (6 gram) micro 6-channel receiver
Simple programmable fail-safe function
Convenient crystal-free operation
The Planet transmitter has been expertly designed and manufactured and incorporates full 4-function control via two silky-smooth dual axis control sticks and a 5th function for lights/retracts, etc., as well as adjustable stick spring tensions (convertible between Mode II (throttle left) and Mode I (throttle right)). The transmitter also features a socket for an optional Flight Simulator cable set, servo reversing switches, LCD battery status display, moulded ergonomic rear and side grips and is powered by 4 AA pencells. NB. The Planet T5 is not a complete system; other parts must be purchased in order to obtain full functionality from this equipment.
Important note - equipment range
Be aware that Planet T5 is not a �full range� system and should only be used at ranges of up to around 100 metres. Always perform a range check before use! Planet 5 has been tested with many types of models and operated at ranges significantly greater than that recommended. However, 2.4GHz equipment can be affected by terrain, weather and obstacles to a greater degree than conventional 35mHz R/C equipment. Therefore, do not be tempted to exceed the specifications described in detail in the instruction manual! |
