Feeder Antennas

The AR9300 incorporates feeder antennas, which are designed to be easily mounted through the

fuselage in carbon airplanes. The main receiver has two 8-inch feeder antennas and the remote

receiver has one. Each feeder antenna includes a coaxial portion (which can be thought of as an

extension) and an exposed 31mm tip antenna. The last 31mm is the active portion of the antenna.

Step 1. Identifying the Types of Carbon Aircraft

While some sailplanes are full carbon construction, most only use carbon in areas that require extra

strength. Many of the latest sailplanes are constructed with 2.4GHz-friendly fuselages meaning that the

forward section of the fuselage is constructed from non-conductive materials like ﬁberglass and Kevlar

that don’t affect the RF signal. The ﬁrst step in a proper installation is identifying the type of aircraft

which will fall into one of three categories below.

A. Full Carbon

All components of the airplane including the entire fuselage,

the wing and tail are constructed of carbon ﬁber or have a

carbon ﬁber weave throughout the aircraft.

This type of aircraft will require that all antennas

be installed externally.

B. 2.4GHz Friendly Fuselage with Carbon Wing

The section forward of the wing is constructed of non-

conductive materials like ﬁberglass, Kevlar, etc. but the

wing and possibly the tail section have carbon or carbon

weave construction.

Antennas in the nose of this type of aircraft can be

installed internally while an antenna installed behind

the wing must be mounted externally.

C. 2.4GHz Friendly Fuselage with Molded

Non-Carbon Wing

The section forward of the wing and the wing itself is

constructed of non-conductive materials like ﬁberglass,

Kevlar, etc. The wing may, however, contain a carbon spar,

which is an insigniﬁcant volume of carbon to have an effect.

The tail section can be either carbon, carbon weave or

ﬁberglass construction.

All antenna can be mounted internally forward of the

wing in this type of aircraft.

Step 2. Determining Antenna Mounting Positions

After determining the type of aircraft from the list above, use the above illustrations as a guideline

as to where the feeder antennas should be mounted. The goal is to mount the antennas in a location

such that at least two will always be in the RF visual line of sight of the transmitter (i.e. not blocked by

carbon ﬁber structures) in all attitudes. This can easily be visualized by having a helper stand about

20 feet away and rotate the airplane in all attitudes conﬁrming that in all positions there is a direct line

between you and at least two receiver antennas that aren’t blocked by carbon ﬁber structure.

Note: If you have a full carbon sailplane, it is highly recommended that an optional fourth receiver

with feeder antenna be installed. Carbon Fuselage Remote (SPM9546)

AR9300 User Guide

Spektrum’s AR9300 9-channel receiver is designed for carbon fiber aircraft installations. Carbon Fiber

Receiver Installation in Aircraft

Airplanes with signiﬁcant carbon ﬁber construction can create an RF shielding effect, reducing range.

The AR9300 is designed to overcome these critical RF issues in carbon airplanes by outﬁtting the

aircraft with external antennas when necessary at speciﬁc points that will ensure secure RF coverage.

Step 3. Installing the Receivers

Install the Main receiver in the normal position recommended by the airplanes’ manufacturer, noting

that the data/bind port should be easily accessible as a ﬂight log will be used to conﬁrm RF link

performance. Double-sided tape or foam can be used to secure the main receiver in place. Using

double-sided servo tape mount the remote receiver(s) within 3 inches from where you intend on

having the antennas exit the fuselage.

Step 4. Mounting the Antennas

Three 2.4GHz Antenna Exit Guides (SPM6824) antenna mounts (with tubes) are included to make

external mounting easy. To install the antenna mount, drill a 1/8-inch hole in the desired antenna

mounting position; then, using a hobby knife slot the hole as shown.

Insert the tube in the mount; then using medium CA, glue the mount and tube in place in the fuselage.

Trim the tube to length inside the fuselage if necessary. Now slide the feeder antenna through the tube

until the 31mm tip completely exits the mount. Using a drop of CA, glue the antenna to the mount

making sure that the 31mm active portion of the antenna tip is fully exposed.

Note: If the antenna is to be mounted internally (in the front of a 2.4GHz friendly fuselage) the coax

can be taped into position. Be sure the 31mm tip is located at least 2 inches from any signiﬁcant

carbon structure and from the battery.

Step 5. Plugging in the Servo Leads

Plug the servo leads into the appropriate servo ports in the receiver noting the polarity of the servo

connector. Note that the signal wire (orange for JR servos) faces toward the center of the receiver.

Consult your radio’s manual for speciﬁc detail as to which servo plugs connect into which servo port

channel.

Step 6. Binding the Receiver

Binding

The AR9300 must be bound to the transmitter before it will operate. Binding is the process of teaching

the receiver the speciﬁc code of the transmitter so it will only connect to that speciﬁc transmitter.

1. To bind an AR9300 to a DSM2 transmitter, insert the bind plug in the BATT/BIND port on the receiver.

2. Power the receiver. Note that the LED on the receiver should be ﬂashing, indicating that the receiver

is in bind mode and ready to be bound to the transmitter.

3. Move the sticks and switches on the transmitter to the desired failsafe positions (normally mid ﬂap

for dethermalizing).

4. Follow the procedures of your speciﬁc transmitter to enter Bind Mode, the system will connect

within a few seconds. Once connected, the LED on the receiver will go solid indicating the system

is connected.

5. Remove the bind plug from the BATT/BIND port on the receiver before you power off the transmitter

and store it in a convenient place.

IMPORTANT: Remove the bind plug to prevent the system from entering bind mode the next time the

power is turned on.

Step 7. Radio Setup and Programming

Following the instructions in your radio manual, program your airplane.

Step 8. Rebinding the Receiver

After you’ve programmed your model, it’s important to rebind the system so the true failsafe control

surface positions are set.

Step 9. Ground Range Testing and Verification with Flight Log

Advanced Range Testing Using a Flight Log

In airplanes that have signiﬁcant carbon ﬁber construction it is imperative to ﬁrst do a ground range

check using a ﬂight log. This ground range check will conﬁrm that the internal and remote receivers

are operating optimally and that the antennas are properly mounted in a position that will give positive

RF coverage in all attitudes. This Advanced Range Check allows the RF performance of each receiver

and the positions of each antenna to be veriﬁed and to optimize the locations of the antennas.

Advanced Range Test

1. Plug a Flight Log (SPM9540) into the data port in the AR9300. If the port is being used for the

battery, a Y-harness can be used or plug the battery into any other unused port.

2. Turn on the system (Tx and Rx).

3. Advance the Flight Log until F- frame losses are displayed by pressing the button on the Flight Log.

3. Have a helper hold your aircraft while observing the Flight Log data.

4. Standing 30 paces away from the model, face the model with the transmitter in your normal ﬂying

position and put your transmitter into range test mode. This causes reduced power output from the

transmitter.

5. Have your helper position the model covering all orientations (nose up, nose down, nose toward the

Tx, nose away from the Tx, etc.) while your helper watches the Flight Log noting any correlation

between the aircraft’s orientation and frame losses. Do this for one minute. The timer on the

transmitter can be used here.

6. After one minute release the range test button and read the data from the Flight Log. A successful

installation will yield the following:

0 - holds, less than 20 Frame Losses

It’s common to see high values on individual receivers as the carbon structure can block the signal

in various orientations. What is important is that at least two receivers are receiving well at all times.

If more than 20 frame losses or any holds occur redo the test noting the aircraft orientation when

the fades and holds occur. This will allow you to change and optimize the antenna position(s) to a

better location.

Step 10. Short Test Flight Verication with Flight Log

When the system tests successfully as directed above, it’s time for a short near test flight. This first

flight should be close (less than 500 ft and about five minutes). After the flight, land your aircraft

nearby (less than 60 ft away)* and check the Flight Log data. Again a successful flight will result in 0

holds and less than 20 Frame losses. Extend the flight distance and times checking the Flight Log data

after every flight until you are confident with the results. Many pilots choose to mount the Flight Log in

the airplane making data checking convenient.

*If the sailplane is landed more than 60 feet from the transmitter the system may experience higher

than normal frame losses and holds. This is because the antennas are within inches of the ground and

the signal can be blocked by the ground causing RF link degradation. Note that when landing more

than 60 feet from yourself, high flight log values are normal.

Important: Y-Harnesses and Servo Extensions

When using a Y-harness or servo extensions in your installation, it’s important to use standard non-

ampliﬁed Y-harnesses and servo extensions as this can/will cause the servos to operate erratically

or not function at all. Ampliﬁed Y-harnesses were developed several years ago to boost the signal

for some older PCM systems and should not be used with Spektrum equipment. Note that when

converting an existing model to Spektrum be certain that all ampliﬁed Y-harnesses and/or servo

extensions are replaced with conventional non-ampliﬁed versions.

Preset Failsafe

The AR9300 features Preset failsafe only. Preset Failsafe is ideal for sailplanes, allowing the aircraft to

automatically dethermalize if signal is lost. With Preset Failsafe, when signal is lost all channels go to

their preset failsafe positions (normally mid ﬂap) preventing a ﬂyaway.

• Prevents yaways should the signal be lost

• Eliminates the possibility of over-driving servos

Receiver Power Only

• When the receiver only is turned on (no transmitter signal is present), all channels have no output

signal, to avoid overdriving the servos and linkages.

Note: Some analog servos may drift slightly during power-up even though no signal is present. This

is normal.

Shown using a separate receiver pack.

(Battery can be plugged into any open port.)

When binding through an ESC, the ESC’s lead must be plugged

into the port operating the motor, typically the gear or AUX2

channel. The servo monitor is helpful in determining which

channel is being used.
