Dual Rates and Expos
To obtain the best fl ight performance, we
recommend using a DSM2/DSMX radio capable of
Dual Rates and Expo. The suggested settings shown
here are the recommended starting settings. Adjust
according to the individual preferences after the
initial fl ight.
If using the DX4e or DX5e transmitters, we
recommend activating Expo for smoother control.
For activation and deactivation of the Expo in the
DX4e and DX5e, see the next section.
NOTICE: Do not set your transmitter travel adjust
over 100%. If the TRAVEL ADJUST is set over
100%, it will not result in more control movement, it
will overdrive the servo and cause damage.
It is normal for linear servos to make signifi cant
noise. The noise is not an indication of a faulty
servo.
Tip: For the fi rst fl ight, fl y the model in low rate.
Tip: For landing, we recommend using high rate
elevator.

DX4e and DX5e Expo Activation and Deactivation
If you plan to fl y your Gee Bee R2 with a DX4e or DX5e, disconnect the battery from the aircraft before
activating the Expo feature in your transmitter.
Once Expo is activated, it will remain activated for use subsequent power cycles of the transmitter. Once
Expo is deactivated, it will remain deactivated until it is activated again.
