3.Meaning of special markings

Pay special attention to safety where indicated by the following marks:

DANGER-Procedures which ma y lead to dangerous conditions and cause death/serious injury if

not carried out properly.

WARNING-Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition or cause death or serious injury

to the user if not carried out properly,or procedures where the probability of superficial injury or

physical dama ge is high.

CAUTIO-proce dures where the possi bility of ser ious inj uty to the user is smal l,but there is a danger

of injuty ,or physi cal dam age , if not car ried out proper ly.

Warning:Always keep electrical components away from small children.

=Prohibited =Mandatory

FLYING SAFETY

To ensure the safety of yorself and others,please bserve the following precautions:

Have regular maintenance performed.Although our TH9X super protects the model memories

with non-volatile EEPROM memory(which does not require periodic replacement)and not a

battery, it still should have regular checkups for wear and tear,We recommend sending

your system to the FLYSKY Service Center annually during your non-flying- season for a

complete checkup and service.

NI-Cd Battery

Charge the batteries!(See Charging the Ni-Cd batteries,p.9,for details.)Always recharge

the transmitter and receiver batteries for at least 8 hours before each flying session.A

low battery will soon die,causing loss of control and a crash. When you begin your flying

session, reset your TH9Xsuper's built- in timer,and during the session pay attention to the

duration of usage.

Stop flying long before your batteries become low on charge. Do not rely on yout radio's

low battery warning systems,intended only as a precaution,to tell you when to techarge.

Always check yout transmitter and receiver batteries prior to each flight.

Aways pay particular attention to the flying field's rules,as well as the presence and location of

spectators,the wind direction, and any obstacles on the field.Be very careful flying in areas near

power lines, tall buildings,or communication facilities as there maybe radio interference in theit

vicinity.

Before flying,be sure that the frequency you intend to fly with is not in use ,and secure any frequency

Control device(pin,tag,etc)for that frequency before turning on your transmi tter,It is never possible

to fly two or nore mo dels on the same frequency at the same time .Even though there are different types of

modulation(AM,FM.PCM)only one model may be flown on a single frequency at any one time .

To prevent possible damage to your radio gear,turn the power switches on and off in the proper sequence:

1. Pull throttle stick to idle position,or otherwise disarm your motor/engne。

2. Turn on the transmitter power and allow your transmitter to reach its home screen

3. Confirm the proper model memory has been selected

4. Fully extend the transmitter antenna

5. Turn on your receiver power

At the flying field

If you must fly away from a club field,be sure there are no other modelers flying within a three-to-

five-mile range, or you may lose control of your aircraft or cause someone else to lose control.

FS-TH9X

8. Complete a full range check (see p.9)

9. After flying,bring your throttle stick to idle position,engage any kill switches or otherwise disarm

your motor/engine

11.Turn off transmitter power

10.Turn off receiver power.

While you are getting ready to fly,if you place your transmitter on the ground,be sure that the wind

won't tip it over. If it is knocked over,the throttle stick may be accidentally moved,causing the

engine to speed up.Also ,damage to your transmitter may occur

Before taxiing,be sure to extend the transmitter antenna to its full length .

A collapsed antenna woll reduce your flying range and cause a loss of control It is a good idea to avoid

pointing the transmitter antenna directly at the model ,since the signal is weakest in that direction

Don't fly in the rain!Water or mo isture ma y enter the transmitter through the antenna or stick op-

enings and cause erratic operation or loss lf control If you must fly in wet weather during a contest ,

be sure to cover your transmi tter with a plastic bag or waterproof barrier.Ne ver fly if lightning is expected

If you do not turn on your system in this order,you may damage your servos or control surfaces,flood

your engine,or in the case of electric-powered or gasoline-powered models,the engine may unesp-

ectedly turn on and cause a severe injury

7. Start your engine

6. Test all controls If aservo operates abnormally,don't attempt to fly until you determine the cause

of fhe problem(For PCM systems only:Test to ensure that the FailSafe settings are correct by waiting

at least2 mi-nutes after adjusting then,turning the transmitter off and confirming the proper

surface/throttle movements,Turn the transmitter back on.)

5.2 Charging the Ni- Cd batteries

The trans m i t t e r a n d r eceiver batteries included with y o u

FS-TH9X s y s t em are r e c h a r g eable,Ni-Cd b a t t e r i e s .Ni-Cd

batteri e s r e q u i r e s pecial care and charging.

NOTE: T h e b a t t e ries are partially charged,but wi l l r e q u i r e

a full, ove r n i g h t c h arge before the model may be flown.

1.Connect the transmitter chargi n g cord coming from the

A/C wa l l charger to the ch a r ge jack in th e r i ght side of

the transmitter case. The receiver charging cord m ay b e

connect e d to th e batteries t w o different ways:The cha r g e

cord m a y be connected directly t o the battery pack, o r t o

the vacant c h a r g e connecto r ( l l a c k ) coming fr o m the on/off

switch in t h e m o d e l . Charging"through the switch"is p r e f e r r e d

as there wi l l b e n o n e e d d isconnect the battery.

2.Plug the A/C w a l l charger into a wall outlet. N o t e : I f the w all outlet can b e turned

off by a swit c h i n t h e r o m m, be certain the switch remains on afte r l e a v i n g t he room.

Otherwi s e , t h e b a t teries will not be charged!

3.The LEDs( l i g h t - e mitting diod e s ) s h o u ld light red, indi c a t i n g that current is flowing

and the batteries a r e being charged.Discha r g e d b a t t e r i e s w i l l t a k e a b o u t 1 5 h o u r s t o

fully cha r g e . I f u s ing an aftermarket fast charger,be c e r t a i n t o f ollow the manufacturer's

instruc t i o n s pr o v i d e d wi t h th e charg e r so you d o no t ove r c h a r g e th e bat t e r i e s . NEVER

charge the batterie s at a r a t e h i g h e r t h a n 1 0 0 0 m A . The b a tteries should also be d i scharged

periodi c a l l y to periodically to prevent a co n d i t i o n called"memory".If, f o r example,

only two flights are mo d e each time you go flyin g , t h e batter i e s will not have"reached

"very far down into their full capacity.A f t e r d o i n g t h i s s e v e r a l t i m e s t h e b a t t e r i e s

will"re m e m b e r " a nd ev e n tually"think"they can supply only enougt power for two fi g h ts.

After tw o flights the ba t t eries may not pr ovide enough po w e r to operate th e system,

thus causing a crash.To erase any potentia l memory,cy c l e the batteries by discharging,

then c h arging them with a c ommercial battery c y c l e r ,or leave the s y s t e m on and exercise

the servos b y m o v i n g t h e t r a n smitter sticks until the even during the winter or periods

of l o n g storage.If using a cycler with a r e a d o u t , note the cajpacity a f t er the batteries

have been cyc l e d . I f t h e re is a noticeable drop in capacity the batteri e s s h o u l d b e

replace d .

NOTE :charging your batteries wi t h t h e i n c l uded FLYSKY A/C battery charger i s a l w a y s

safe.Ho w e v e r , f a st-charging w i th an aftermarket charger i s acceptable as l o n g as you

know how t o pr o p e r l y operate the charger,NEVER charge a t a rate h i g her than 1000mA.If

not done co r r e c t l y ,fast-charging can damage the batt e r i e s .
