If the power indicator doesn’t
light green, check the polarity
of the batteries. Check
rechargeable batteries for
a full charge. If you see any
other flashing signal from the
LED, refer to the chart on page
28 to identify the code.
Use the Right Batteries
Your transmitter uses AA
batteries. Use new alkaline
batteries, or rechargeable
batteries such as NiMH
(Nickel Metal Hydride)
batteries in your transmitter.
Make sure rechargeable
batteries are fully
charged according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
If you use rechargeable
batteries in your
transmitter, be aware
that when they begin
to lose their charge, they lose
power more quickly than
regular alkaline batteries.
Caution: Discontinue running
your model at the first sign of
weak batteries (flashing red
light) to avoid losing control.

INSTALLING TRANSMITTER BATTERIES
Your TQi transmitter uses 4 AA batteries. The battery compartment
is located in the base of the transmitter.
1. Remove the battery compartment door by pressing the tab and
sliding the door open.
2. Install the batteries in the correct orientation as indicated in
the battery compartment.
3. Reinstall the battery door and snap it closed.
4. Turn on the transmitter and check the status indicator for a solid
green light.
If the status LED flashes red, the transmitter
batteries may be weak, discharged or possibly
installed incorrectly. Replace with new or
freshly charged batteries. The power indicator
light does not indicate the charge level of the
battery pack installed in the model. Refer to the
troubleshooting section on page 28 for more
information on the transmitter Status LED codes.
