here it is:


Jeti Range Test:

The range test will verify that the transmitter and receiver are
functioning properly.

Before the first flight of each flying session or if have any doubts
about the transmitter or receiver function, you should always check
the range.

During the range test the transmitter’s output power is
decreased to 10%.


When performing a range test, both the model and the transmitter
should be at a minimum height of 80 cm (31.5“) above the ground.

A correctly functioning transmitter and receiver in range test mode
should safely control a model to a minimum distance of 50m (164‘).


If not, check your model’s antenna installation first. If the test is still
not successful, donīt fly the equipment and contact your retail shop
or one of the JETI authorized service centers.

Steps:

1. Go to System from main menu
2. Go to Servo and Range Test
3. 1[SUP]st[/SUP], set up servo test, and on servo no area, check mark the servos to test, then set the servo speed.
4. Click on Start, this will start making the servos that are checked to move cyclically. Then go back up to where it states “range test” highlight it, and press the wheel down, now you will listen to the beeping sound of the decreased signal to 10%.
5. What to look for next? Want to look at the receivers signal strength?
6. Once done, can hit stop on the bottom, this will stop the servos from cycling, and then hit range test again so the x-appears.
