Charging Rechargeable Batteries In The Transmitter - Reely SKY Pitts Bedienungsanleitung

c) Charging rechargeable batteries in the transmitter
When using rechargeable batteries, you can attach a charging cable to the charging socket (see fig. 3, pos. 4) and charge the rechargeable batteries in the
transmitter. The transmitter must be switched off. Make sure the polarity of the connector plug is correct. The inner contact of the charging socket must be
connected to the positive terminal (+) and the outer contact to the negative terminal (-) of the charger. The charging current should correspond to approximately
1/10 of the capacity value of the rechargeable batteries that are inserted. Rechargeable batteries with a capacity of 2000 mAh require a charging current of
approx. 200 mA, the charging time being approx. 14 hours. In order to avoid damage to the internal conductor paths and connections, please do not use any
quick chargers.
Since a protective diode is integrated in the transmitter, no chargers can be used that briefly interrupt the charging current in order to measure the
voltage of the rechargeable battery. In this case, the rechargeable batteries must be charged outside the transmitter.
Connect the charger only if rechargeable batteries (1.2 V/cell) have been inserted in the transmitter. Never try to recharge batteries (1.5 V/cells)
with a charger. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
Caution!
The speed controller in the model is equipped with an effective protective circuit which prevents the drive motor from starting unintentionally.
Nevertheless, before using the transmitter, always make sure that the motor speed control stick (see fig. 2, pos.10) is in the "motor off" position. For
this purpose, the control stick has to be pushed down completely or pulled towards you as far as possible. As opposed to the control functions of the
rudder, the motor speed control stick is not equipped with a return spring, so it keeps its position.
When the rechargeable batteries are charged or new batteries have been inserted, pull out the transmitter aerial completely and switch on the transmitter using
the function switch (see fig. 2, pos. 6) to test it. The LED display (see fig. 2, pos. 7) lights up green to indicate that the transmitter is sufficiently supplied with
power.
If the power supply is not sufficient for the transmitter to work properly (less than 8 V), the LED changes from green to red. In this case, you should stop operating
your model as quickly as possible. To continue operating the transmitter, recharge the batteries or insert new batteries.
In order to avoid the memory effect of NiCd rechargeable batteries, you should connect a charger only when the rechargeable batteries are completely
discharged.
