User Manual of DEVO-12 transmitter
Part one: General information
1.0 General information
1.1 Foreword
DEVO-12 takes 2.4GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology,
features automatic ID binding, automatic ID assignment, and also features
custom izedly fixed ID setup . The usage of wireless copy function keeps you away
from the tr oubl e in wi re l ink- up. Three m ode types of Hel icopter, Airpl ane, and Gli der
are avai lable t o meet your req uir ements f or differ ent model s. Touch scr een w ith w ide
area is us ed and it off ers you co nvenient op eration. U SB Online updat e technolog y
ensures one transmitter in hand forever not to be out of date and makes it full of vigor.
User Manual for DEVO-12 Page 5 of 238
1.2 Important statements
1) The transmitter is suitable for experienced radio controlled aircraft modelers
beyond 14 years old.
2) Flying the model aircraft in approved ground is a must.
3) We are not respons ible f or any safety c aused b y operati on, usage or control as
soon as the transmitter is sold out.
4) We consign our distributors to offer technical support and service after sale.
Please contact the local distributors for problem solutions caused by usage,
operation, maintenance, etc.
1.3 Safety nee ding attention
1) Far away from obstacle and people.
RC air cr af t i n f l ig ht s i s uncer t ain of f l i g ht speed and s tat us, which p otenti al ri sk ex is ts
in when f lying. Please keep your r adio contr olled ai rcr aft far aw ay from peopl e, high
buildings, high-tension line, etc, and avoid operating in rain, storms, thunder and
lightening.
2) Away from humidity environment
Radio contr olled ai rcraf t should be kep t away f rom humidity and vapor because i t is
composed of complicated precise electronic elements and mechanic parts.
3) Proper operation
Use orig inal spare par ts to upgrade, m odify or maintain your equipm ent in order to
assure its safety. Please operate your equipment within the range of functions
permitted. It is forbidden to use out of the safety laws or regulations.
4) Safety operation
Operate your equipment according to your body status and flight skills. Fatigue,
listlessness and mis-operation will increase the po ssibilit ies of accidental hazard.
5) Away from heat sources
The inside of the transmitter is composed of precise electronic components and
mechanical parts. Keep it far away form heat sources and sunshine to avoid distortion,
or even damage caused by high temperature.
6) Correct charging method
Use the assor ted charg er to charg e the batter y for your DEVO -12. The usag e of the
charger should be within the range of rated voltage.
1.4 Attention before flight
1) Ensure the battery packs of both transmitter and receiver are fully saturated.
2) Ensure both the throttl e stick and the thrott le trim of your DEVO-12 stay at the
lowest positions before operation.
3) Strictly obey the order of TURN-ON and TURN-OFF before operation. When
starting your flig ht, turn on your DEVO- 12 first, and connect the battery to the
aircraft l ast. W hen tur ni ng off the ai r cr aft, disconnec t the b atter y f i r st, and tur n off
your DEVO- 12 last. An upset i n t he or der m ay caus e your ai rc raft out of contr ol.
User Manual for DEVO-12 Page 6 of 238
Cultivate a correct habit of turn-on and turn-off.
4) Ensure whether the directions and actions of all the servos in your RC aircraft are
correct when executing commands of the tr ansmitter. Using broken serv os will
result in unforeseen dangers.

11. 0 Installation requirements for receiver
It is im portant to cor rectly mount your transm itter system i n your model . Below are
some advices on how to install your equipments.
1) Wrap the r ec eiver with 10m m thick foam and soundly fix i t w i th a r ub ber or m agi c
string on your aircraft model. It helps protect the receiver from damage.
2) It is necessary to use rubber grommets and copper sleeves to isolate the
vibrati ons from the main b ody of air craft model . The mounti ng scr ews cannot b e
over-tightened. Otherwise the rubber grommets will be distorted and decrease the
vibration absorption effect.
3) When mounting the servos, make sure the servos’ bellcranks can move freely
over their whole travel range and ensure the control linkages don’t touch or
impede the movement of these servos.
4) If installing various switches, keep them far away from the engine tuned pipe and
high vibration sources. Ensure all the switches move freely over their whole travel
range.
5) Don’t make the receiver antennas wrapped or parallel.
