ParkZone Radian RTF PKZ4700 Data Sheet

Your DX5e transmits on the 2.4GHz band and utilizes 

DSM2™ second-generation Digital Spread Spectrum 

Modulation, giving beyond-visual range in all types and 

sizes of aircraft. Unlike conventional narrow band systems, 

Spektrum’s 2.4GHz digital DuaLink technology is virtually 

immune to internal and external radio interference.

Included with your DX5e is an AR500 5-channel full-

range sport receiver. The DX5e transmitter simultaneously 

transmits on two frequencies and the AR500 receives 

both frequencies, creating dual RF paths. This dual path 

redundancy creates a bulletproof RF link. The AR500 

features two aileron outputs making it convenient when 

using airplanes with two aileron servos.

The DX5e is compatible with all current Spektrum

 and JR

 aircraft receivers. However, when using the 

DX5e with one of the Spektrum park flyer receivers, like the 

AR6000, AR6100, AR6100E, etc., it is imperative that these 

receivers be limited to flying Parkflyer-type aircraft.

The DX5e requires 4 heavy duty or alkaline AA batteries.

Remove the battery door and install 4 AA batteries. Make 

sure the polarity of each corresponds with the diagram in the 

battery holder. Replace the battery door.

note: Optional NiCd or NiMH 1.2-volt AA rechargeable 

batteries can also be used. A charge jack is located 

on the right side of the transmitter for convenient 

recharging. Spektrum offers optional replacement NiMH 

rechargeable batteries, part number SPM9525.

If using rechargeable batteries (optional), it is imperative that 

you fully charge the transmitter prior to each flying session. 

To do so, using the optional wall charger, leave the charger 

and batteries connected overnight (16 hours).

The optional charger (SPM9526) is designed to recharge

your batteries at a rate of 150mA for the transmitter and 

150mA for the receiver battery pack. Do not use this charger 

for equipment other than Spektrum transmitters that use 

4-cell battery packs. The charging plug polarity may not 

be the same and equipment damage can result. During the 

charging operation, the charger’s temperature is slightly 

elevated. This is normal.

A charging jack is located on the right side of the transmitter. 

If rechargeable batteries are used they can be conveniently 

charged without removing them from the transmitter using 

the charge jack.
