How to set up parameters when using Radiolink AT9S control glider


This user manual is compatible with the model F3K, such as CX5, VISON, STIKA, and STEAM

The products for this manual are:

Transmitter: Radiolink AT9S Pro/AT9S/AT9

Receiver: Radiolink R6DS

Glider: STEAM

Step1: firmware upgrade

  • Upgrade the firmware of transmitter (AT9S Pro/AT9S/AT9) to V1.8.2

Attention: The V1.8.2 firmware is designed for gliders. If your plane is a glider, you must change the firmware of your transmitter to V1.8.2, even the default firmware is V2.0.2 or you have upgraded the firmware to the latest firmware V2.1.0a before.

  • You can click the website below to check how to upgrade firmware and download the files you need.

Step 2: Reinstall the switches

Interchange the SWH and SWF first to make the control more convenient (you have to change the position of the SWH and SWF first if you are accustomed to holding on the transmitter by left hand and throwing the glider by right hand).

Step 3: Connect the receiver and servos

Make sure the receiver R6DS is outputting PWM signal (it means the R6SM is outputting PWM signal when it with red LED always on)


R6DS DLG Glider
CH1 is Aileron Connect to the left aileron servo of DLG
CH2 is Elevator Connect to the elevator servo of DLG
CH3 is Throttle Connect to the right aileron servo of DLG
CH4 is Rudder Connect to the rudder servo of DLG

SPEED: OFF -sw-: SwE -pos-: CENT
DISTANCE: OFF -sw-: SwE -pos-: DOWN
LANDING: OFF -sw-: SwE -pos-: NULL

Check the setting success or not:

① Hook the SwH; the START: OFF turns to START: ON

  Release the SWH, the START: ON turns to START: OFF
