What is the range of the SPMSR2100 receiver?

The SPMSR2100 is designed for short-range applications, such as indoor or small park flyers. It is crucial to perform a range check before flying to ensure safe operation within the intended distance.

How do I perform a range test with the SPMSR2100 receiver?

Activate the range test mode on your transmitter and walk away from the model. Observe the LED on the receiver; it should remain solid. Follow your transmitter’s manual for specific instructions on activating range test mode.

Can I use the SPMSR2100 receiver with a different brand of transmitter?

The SPMSR2100 is specifically designed for use with Spektrum DSMR-compatible transmitters. Using a different brand is not recommended and may not be compatible.

What type of power supply is required for the SPMSR2100 receiver?

The SPMSR2100 typically requires a power supply of 3.5V to 9.6V DC. Refer to your specific model’s manual to ensure the correct voltage and current specifications are met.

How do I troubleshoot if my SPMSR2100 is not powering on?

Verify the power connections, check the battery voltage, and ensure that the receiver is correctly connected. If the receiver still doesn't power on, try a different power source or consult the manual for further troubleshooting steps.

Is the SPMSR2100 compatible with telemetry?
