6. Подешавање

6.1 Инсталација батерије

The MT12 controller uses 2 x 18650 cells or a 2S 7.4V 5000mAh battery pack. Ensure correct polarity when inserting batteries into the provided tray or connecting a LiPo pack.

6.2 Повезивање пријемника

To establish communication between the MT12 controller and the R85C receiver, a binding process is required. Refer to the detailed steps in the included manual for your specific receiver type (R85C or ER3C-i).

For receivers with built-in gyro functionality, ensure the gyro is activated and configured correctly after binding. The sensitivity of the gyro can often be adjusted via a potentiometer on the receiver or through the controller's menu.
