Setting Up the Landing Gear

Using a 2-position RC transmitter switch, landing gear retraction can be carried out remotely.

Setting up the transmitter

Select a 2-position switch (default setting is OK) as the control input for the landing gear. Ensure the 

corresponding receiver port is connected to the “IN” port on control board. For the A2 flight control 

system, connect the light controller’s F1 port to “IN” port on control board.

 Upper: Toggle the switch to this position to raise the landing gear.

 Lower: Toggle the switch to this position to lower the landing gear.

 If the transmitter switch has a FailSafe function, set the FailSafe value to the [Lower] position. This 

ensures that the landing gear will lower automatically when the receiver enters FailSafe mode.

 To avoid accidental switch triggering, slide levers or other controls can be used for landing gear 

control.

Usage procedures

1. Ensure transmitter and receiver batteries are fully charged.

2. Toggle the switch to the [Lower] position, and then turn on the transmitter.

3. Ensure the “R”, “L” and “IN” connections are correct.

4. Ensure the landing gear is in the [Lower] position, then power on the system. If a solid green LED on the 

landing gear control board lights up, everything is normal. If it lashes green slowly, re-calibrate the system 

according to instructions in “Recalibrating Servo Travel”.

5. Toggle the switch to the [Upper] position ONLY AFTER takeoff.

6. Toggle the switch to the [Lower] position for landing.

Setting Up the Landing Gear

 Servo power will shut off 3 seconds after the landing gear has reached its target position.

 When powering on the system, if the transmitter switch is in the [Upper] position, the LED will lash 

red quickly as a warning. Toggle the switch to the [Lower] position to continue.

 If there is an abnormal signal or no signal input into the “IN” port, the LED will slowly lash red. 

Check receiver and connections for problems.

 If servo power consumption is too high, the LED will light up red. If this lasts more than 4 seconds, 

the landing gear will lower and the LED will lash green slowly. Re-calibration is needed before 

lying.

 A2 light control system users can use the A2 Assistant to set intelligent gear on the “Advanced” 

page. Refer to the “A2 user manual” for details.

Instructions

1. Keep your hands away from all moving parts.

2. Ensure the “R”, “L” and “IN” connections are correct.

3. Keep the whole aircraft off of the ground during calibration, as landing gear will move.

4. Press and hold the SET button using a pin while powering on, then release. An LED will flash yellow 

quickly. Press the SET button again. Auto calibration will begin and the LED will lash yellow slowly. DO 

NOT obstruct any moving parts during auto calibration.

5. During calibration, the left landing gear will raise and lower, followed by the right landing gear. 

6. After calibration, both the left and right landing gears will be lowered and the LED will display a solid green 

light. This indicates that the landing gear is working properly.

 If the LED is solid yellow after calibration, a problem has occurred. Carry out the instructions in 

“Remounting the Landing Gear Servo” then try again.

 Avoid obstructions during calibration. If the landing gear was obstructed, recalibration will be 

required, per the above steps.

 If the “R” and “L” servo cables are reversed, travel will not be measured correctly. Fix the 

connections and recalibrate the landing gear using the above steps.

 Landing gear travel has been pre-calibrated. Mechanical adjustment of the gear travel is not 

recommended.
