RC4GS FAQ
Q: What battery is suitable to work with RC4GS? What's the voltage range?
A: The JST connector of RC4GS can be easily adapted for various battery, including LiPo battery of 2S to 4S and 6pcs of AA batteries. The voltage range is 4.8V to 15V.
Q: Does RC4GS have telemetry function?
A: Yes. RC4GS with firmware of V6.0.1 and above is capable of returning signal strength, RSSI, RX voltage. If work with RadioLink receiver R7FG/R8F, vehicle voltage can also be returned. However, telemetry of motor speed and temperature is NOT available yet.
Q: Can RC4GS control TRAXXAS or twin-engine RC cars?
A: Sure. RC4GS is a perfect remote control to all types of on-road electric powered or gasoline cars and twin-engine cars, tracked vehicles, crawlers, drift cars, tractor trucks, nitro cars, mini cars, sailboats, fishing boats.
Q: How to setup dual ESC with RC4GS?
A: Select whichever two preferred channels and refer the PROGRAMMABLE MIX CONTROL setup part in the user manual of RC4GS or click below link for the detailed steps to setup mix control https://www.radiolink.com/newsinfo/477940.html
Q: How many models RC4GS can store?
A: RC4GS can store 10 models data at most.
Q: What are the compatible receivers to RC4GS?
A: The standard packed receiver of RC4GS is R6FG. RC4GS is compatible with R6FG, R7FG, R8F, R6F, R4FGM and R4F is specially developed for mini cars.
Note
* All RadioLink transmitters are not open sourced and can only bind to receivers developed by RadioLink. Vice versa.
Q: How to do the binding between RC4GS and receivers?
A: All the binding of RadioLink transmitters and receivers is the same. Power on the products, long press the binding button on the receiver and release, the led indicator always on means the binding is done. Click the tutorial video to learn more https://youtu.be/Kxjzt4vzqU4
Q: Can I assign a switch to control dual rate function?
A: No, you cannot assign a switch to control the dual rate function. You can only set it in the D/R menu.
Q: What’s the function of USB port of RC4GS? Can it be used on a computer as a controller as well?
A: The USB port of RC4GS is for upgrading the firmware and for copying the data to the computer. It cannot be used on the computer as a controller.
Do not use the USB port as a charging port, or it will damage the transmitter.
Q: I am driving in 3s and I have set the EXT alarm to 11.1V. But why the alarm goes off when I speed up?
A: When you speed up, the instantaneous voltage is high, so the voltage of battery may fall. When it slows down, the voltage of battery will go back slowly. You can set the alarm voltage lower than 11.1V.
Q: Does RC4GS V2/RC4GS support Crossfire?
A: Yes.
RC4GS, RC4GS V2 all support Crossfire. For wiring and setting method, please refer to the following YouTube tutorial video.
Q: When letting go of the throttle, the car is still moving forward. What to do to stop the car immediately when I let go of the throttle?
A: Please check the instruction manual of your ESC and set the mode of your ESC.
Q: How to test RSSI value of RC4GS, RC4GS V2, RC6GS and RC6GS V2?
A: Please click the below link for how to test RSSI value of RC4GS, RC4GS V2, RC6GS and RC6GS V2:
Q: Why do users encounter various problems when reading SBUS signals?
A:
1. When the data read by the user differs from the reference data we provide, please check whether the EPA setting of each channel in the transmitter is the same. If the EPA setting for each channel is different, the read signal range will be different.
2. If the SBUS data cannot be read, please check whether the devices used are working properly and whether there is any problem with the connecting cable.
3. Our products support standard SBUS signals compatible with various flight controllers. Please refer to the chart below for detailed information.
Q: Can RadioLink transmitter work well with multiple transmitters using at the same time?
A: Yes. The Frequencies Band of RadioLink transmitters are 2.4GHz ISM band, with a bandwidth of 83M. Up to 50 transmitters can be used at the same time.
