6. Installation
•
Connect the servos, batteries and switch harness in accordance with fig 2. Carefully
check to ensure that all connectors are properly seated.
• Turn the power switches “ON” and operate the transmitter. Observe the direction of
travel of the control surfaces to see if they correspond to the control stick movement.
Improper servo direction is corrected with the servo reverse switches (fig 5).
• Operate each servo over its entire range and check for binding of the push rods. Correct
as necessary. Hold each control stick at its extreme position and listen for servo hum.
The hum indicates that the control linkage is too tight for the amount of servo travel.
This is corrected with the end point adjustment or by lengthening the push rods.
• Applying unreasonable force to a servo output arm will adversely affect the servo and
quickly drain the flight batteries. Therefore, all control linkages should operate as
smoothly and as frictionless as possible. Use Hitec “Jam Check’r” to assure smooth, safe
control setups.
• When installing the switch, cut a rectangular somewhat larger than the full stroke of the
switch, then install the switch so it moves smoothly from ON to OFF.
• The length of the receiver antenna is critical to the reception ofsignals transmitted,
therefore DO NOT cut or bundle the antenna wire, make every effort to keep the
antenna wire fully extended. Keep receiver antenna away from power & servo wires.
Keep off the metal frames.
• Protect the receiver from excessive vibration by wrapping it in sponge rubber (note: Use
Hitec “Flight Preserver: #58480”). Next place the receiver in a plastic bag. Secure the
plastic bag with rubber bands to keep out moisture and dust.
• Collapse the transmitter antenna fully and operate the system from a distance of 60 to 90
feet. The system should function flawlessly. If it does not, check to see that the receiver
and transmitter batteries are at maximum capacity.
7. Charging Instruction
• Before first use of Focus Heli-5 F.M. system, connect appropriate charge connectors from
charger to transmitter and receiver switch harness with battery connected.
• With transmitter and receiver switched OFF, plug charger into AC plug and be sure the
RED & GREEN charge lights are ON. If either charger light is OFF, recheck connections
to charger and be sure switches on transmitter and receiver are OFF.
• Charge for 24 hours first before further use of system. This conditions the batteries for full-
charge capacity.
• Re-charge 16-20 hours immediatley before flying day.
• In normal use (with Hitec Gyro) aircraft battery should provide 20-30 minutes of safe
operation. Transmitter battery will operate for one hour or as indicated by battery voltage
meter.
