△! Cautions on handling antenna

 Do not touch the antenna during operation. Doing so could interfere with transmission, causing a crash.
 Do not carry the transmitter by the antenna. The antenna wire could break and prevent transmission.
 Do not pull the antenna forcefully. The antenna wire could break and prevent transmission.

Rotating Antenna

The antenna can be rotated 180 degrees and angled 90
degrees. Forcing the antenna further than this can cause
damage to the antenna. The antenna is not removable.

Angle adjustment of the antenna

The antenna rotation and angle can be adjusted. The
antenna features week radio signal in the forward direction
and strong radio signal in the sideways directions. Adjust the
antenna angle to match your flying style.

Model Setup for Taranis Q X7 Internal RF Module

The internal RF module of FrSky Taranis Q X7 is newly developed by FrSky under the name of XJT.
Enter the MODEL SETUP menu (for details, refer to the Guide included on the SD card, or download it from FrSky website).

Step 1: Set the Mode for Taranis Q X7 Internal RF
Refer to the table below and set the Taranis Q X7 to the mode corresponding to your receiver (D8, D16 or LR12 ).

Mode of Taranis Q

X7

Compatible Receivers

Number of Output servo

Channels

D8

V8-II series in D mode (V8FR-II, V8R7-II, V8R4-II, VD5M, etc.)

D series (D8R-II plus, D8R-XP, D6FR, D4R-II, etc.)

8

D16

X series (X8R, etc.)

Up to 16

LR12

L series (L9R, etc.)

12

Note: older V8 receivers are not supported by the internal module but can be used with an external DJT module in V8
mode.

Step 2: Set the Channel Range
The internal RF module of Taranis Q X7 supports up to 16 output servo channels. The channel range is configurable, and
needs double check before use.

Step 3: Set the Receiver Number
When you create a new model, the system will assign you a receiver number automatically, but this can be easily changed.
The range of the receiver number is 00-63, with the default number being 01 (use 00 is not recommended). Once the
receiver is set to the desired number and is bound to the Taranis Q X7, the bind procedure will not need to be repeated

 Please connect a battery in the battery compartment before use.
 The voltage range should be DC 6-15V.
 Be careful not to drop the battery.
 Don't pull the battery wires as this could produce, short-circuits and cause the battery to explode.
 Do not remove the battery from the TARANIS Q X7 transmitter while the voltage warning is blinking as this could

cause iinternal settings and memories to be destroyed.

 Do not use the transmitter if a “Backup Error” warning occurs.

Battery Connector Polarity

Ensure that the battery connector polarity is correct
when connecting batteries into the battery
compartment, otherwise the Taranis Q X7 might not
be powered on.
