OPTIONAL RECHARGEABLE
TRANSMITTER BATTERY
The Tactic 4-channel transmitter is equipped with a
charge jack that will allow you to use a rechargeable
NiCd battery pack and charge it directly through the
transmitter. For a rechargeable pack that works with
this transmitter, use part number FUTM1450 NT8LP
Transmitter NiCd 9.6V 500mAh.
A charge lead and an appropriate charger will also be
required. There are a variety of chargers available that
will charge the recommended battery pack. For an
economical multi-purpose charger, use HCAP0100
R/C Multi-Charger. For charge leads, use HCAP0101
Tx/Rx Charge leads.
Caution:
•Do not mix old and new batteries.
•Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or
rechargeable (NiCd) batteries.
•Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.
•Only batteries with the same or equivalent type as
recommended are to be used.
•Batteries are to be inserted with the correct polarity.
•Exhausted batteries are to be removed from
the transmitter.
•The supply terminals are not to be short circuited.
❏ 1. Plug the battery charger into a 12-volt power outlet
in a vehicle, placing the battery outside the car, away
from flammables. NEVER charge your airplane battery
while driving or with the vehicle engine running!
❏ 2. Plug the battery pack into the charger connector.
Be careful–do not force the plugs. The battery pack will
plug in only one way. The red LED will be on solid.
❏ 3. IMPORTANT! NEVER LEAVE A CHARGING
BATTERY UNATTENDED. ONLY CHARGE THE
CESSNA 182 SKYLANE BATTERY WITH A PEAK
DETECTION CHARGER. DO NOT USE A WIND-UP
TIMER CHARGER.
❏ 4. During charging, feel the battery every 5 minutes to
see if it is starting to warm up. A warm (but not hot) battery
pack is a sign that the battery is nearing a full charge. If the
battery becomes hot, disconnect it from the charger.
❏ 5. Once the battery reaches a full charge the charger
will start to beep and the LED will flash.
