You are now the owner of a superb system for the newcomer to the hobby of radio-controlled modelling. We hope you have many hours of fun and success with your new equipment. 2. QUICK-START 1. Unpack the transmitter and receiver Store the documents safely. 2. Insert the batteries It is essential to maintain cor- rect polarity (see adjacent illus- tration). Reversed polarity may ruin the transmitter and / or the cells. 3. Binding • Preparing the model When binding is complete, the receiving system immediately starts operating. Secure the model carefully so that no damage can result if the propel- ler should start turning. • Prepare the transmitter Hold the multi-function button pressed in and switch the transmitter on, then release the button again. The LED flashes at a high rate. • Prepare the receiver Switch the receiver on with the SET button held pressed in; the receiver LED now flashes at a high rate. If binding is successful, both LEDs revert to a slow flashing rate. 4. Check the directions of servo rotation • Model with ID receiver The transmitter emits an audible signal when it de- tects the receiver. No further adjustments are re- quired. • Model with normal M-Link receiver (light or teleme- try) All the control surfaces (servos) must respond to the sticks in the correct direction; check and re- verse the servos if necessary: move the correct stick to one end-point and hold the multi-function button pressed in for three seconds: the ser- vo now reverses, and moves to the opposite end-point. 5. Carry out a range check It is important to check radio range before the first flight: hold the multi-function but- ton pressed in for two sec- onds immediately after switching on, and the LED glows constantly. The transmitter now generates great- ly reduced power, and emits an audible warning signal.

Flying the model These few steps are all you need to do before the first flight. Be sure to keep to the correct se- quence of switching on and off: always switch the transmitter on first, and only then the receiving system; reverse the sequence when switching off. Before you launch and fly your model please read through the manufacturer’s notes; those concern- ing safety and other warnings are particularly im- portant. 3. INTRODUCTION These operating instructions are an integ-ral part of the product, and contain important information and safety notes. Please store them in a safe place, and be sure to pass them on to the new owner if you ever dispose of the equipment. 3.1 The SMART SX philosophy The SMART SX M-LINK is a compact, intelligent six- channel beginners’ radio control system with a concept for the future! The SMART SX intelligent beginners’ radio control system is fully compatible with other MULTIPLEX sys- tems, from the telemetry-capable COCKPIT SX right up to the high-end PROFI TX system. The same ap- plies to the small ID receiver supplied in the set, which even works with the sophisticated PROFI TX transmit- ter. However, MULTIPLEX offers much more than this: our range also includes a carefully considered, con- sistent series of models. Our complete RTF (Ready- to-Fly) packages contain the model, factory-assem- bled and almost ready for the air, the SMART SX transmitter, an RX-5 M-LINK ID receiver, dry cells, a rechargeable flight battery and a 230 V battery charger. Once you have unpacked the model, all you have to do is attach the wings, charge the flight pack and receiver battery (if used), and prepare the trans- mitter. When these few procedures are out of the way, there is nothing to stop you flying the model. The presence of the M-LINK ID receiver enables the SMART SX to detect the specific model, and automatically activate the as- sociated settings from its enor- mous reserve of model memo- ries: fifty independent model memories are available. All compatible MULTIPLEX ELAPOR® models from RR+ to RTF are programmed in the transmitter as standard. Many models from other manufacturers can be fitted with an ID receiver, and this makes it very simple for the intelligent SMART SX transmitter to detect each ID receiver, and ex- ploit its advantages. The overall conce…
