Range Test Your Radio
Before each flying session, and especially with a new model, it
is important to perform a range check. The DX5e incorporates
a range testing system which, when placed in the range check
mode with the trainer switch activated and held, reduces the
output power, allowing a range check.
 1. With the model resting on the ground, stand 30 paces
(approximately 90 feet) away from the model.
 2. Face the model with the transmitter in your normal
flying position. Pull and hold the trainer switch while
toggling the HI/LO Rate Switch four times. The LEDs will
flash and the alarm will sound, indicating the system is in
range check mode.
