Link procedure (FMT-03 ⇔ FMR-03) Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start operation, the receiver must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link is made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used with another transmitter. When you purchase additional FMR-03 receivers, this procedure is necessary; otherwise the receiver will not work. Link procedure 1.
10. When a telemetry function is enabled, the receiving interval (down-link interval) of sensor data can be changed. If a DL interval is increased, the response of the sensor data display becomes slower, but stick response will improve. Initial value: 1.0s Adjustment range: 0.1s~2.0s * If there are many FASSTest systems turned on around your receiver, it might not link to your transmitter.
Range Testing Your R/C System It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each flying session.

TELEMETRY : GPS [SPEED] The speed screen displays and sets the speed data from an SBS-01G (GPS sensor) sold separately. The speed of the aircraft during flight can be displayed. After flight, the maximum speed during flight can be viewed. Because this speed is based on position data from a GPS satellite, the ground speed is displayed instead of air speed. Consequently, with a head wind, the displayed speed decreases and with a tail wind, the displayed speed increases.
