Use the diagrams in this section to make receiver connections and to familiarize yourself with the RX-471 4-Channel 2.4GHz FH4
Super Response receiver included with your M12 radio control system. Descriptions of the features can be found in the
Transmitter
and Receiver Features Descriptions
section below and on the next page.
The receiver's Nominal Input Voltage is 4.8 ~ 7.4 volts. A 2 cell Li-Po or Li-Fe battery pack can be used to power the receiver without
the use of a voltage regulator. In addition, this allows you to take advantage of the Higher torque and speed provided by using
7.4 volt digital servos.
Use a 2 cell Li-Po or Li-Fe battery pack ONLY if your servos are rated to handle the Higher voltage.
• We suggest Binding the transmitter and receiver and making all receiver connections to check for correct
operation prior to mounting the receiver in your Model.
• The receiver should be mounted as far away from any electrical components as possible. When routing the
antenna, avoid contact with any carbon or metal chassis components. Contact between metal or carbon
parts can result in electrical noise, which can adversely effect receiver performance and possibly result in
runaway operation and result in damage to your Model.
• Route the receiver antenna up through a plastic tube so that it is in the vertical position. Do not bend the
reception wire. Reception performance decreases if the reception wire is bent. Do not pull on the antenna with force. Do not
cut or extend the antenna. The coaxial cable can be bent into gentle curves, however, do not bend the coaxial cable acutely,
or repeatedly bend it, or the antenna core can be damaged.
• To protect the receiver from vibration and other damage, we recommend wrapping the receiver in shock absorbing foam or
using double-sided foam tape when installing it in your Model.
As a safety precaution, set your Model on a stand so the wheels are off the ground before turning on your radio control
system or connecting your motor for the first time.

Bind LED Condition Indicator:
The Bind LED on the receiver can be used to determine receiver condition at a glance. The Bind LED will alert you to various
receiver conditions, as shown in the table below.
Antenna: Transmits the signal from the transmitter to the receiver in the Model.
Antenna Reception Wire: The portion of the receiver antenna that receives the transmitter signal. The Antenna Reception Wire
should never be bent or it could be damaged and limit the range of your Model.
Auxiliary Dial: The Auxiliary Dial can rotate 360º and is programmable to perform a different function depending on what function
is Assigned to it. In the default configuration, it controls Auxiliary 1 High and Low servo travel.
Auxiliary Lever: The Auxiliary Lever is programmable and will perform a different function depending on what function is Assigned
to it. In the default configuration, it controls Auxiliary 2 High and Low servo travel.
