•  Small, all-purpose 5-channel receiver exploiting MULTIPLEX 

2.4 GHz M-LINK technology, ideal for use in small models. 

•  In-line connector arrangement: 

Ideal for use even in slender fuselages. 

•  HOLD / FAIL-SAFE function. 
•  Integral SET button and LED:   

For binding, FAIL-SAFE programming, RESET and 
operating status information.

!  Please read the instructions before using the receiver. 
!  Use the receiver only for the intended applications  

(Π4.). 

!  Ensure the power supply is of adequate capacity (Π6.). 
!  Observe the installation notes (Π9.). 
!  Carry out regular range checks (Π10.). 

4.  A

The

 

RX-5 light M-LINK is a radio control receiver intended 

exclusively for use in model sport applications. It is prohibited to 
use it for other applications, such as man-carrying vehicles or 
industrial installations. 
The  RX-5 light M-LINK was designed with minimum possible 
size and weight as top priority, and for technical reasons such a 
unit cannot offer the same reception characteristics as a larger, 
technically more sophisticated and more expensive receiver. In 
the interests of safety we recommend that you use a larger 

receiver wherever space permits. Under normal conditions it is 
certainly possible to obtain excellent reception characteristics 
with a small receiver such as the RX-5 light M-LINK provided 
that all the RC system components are carefully arranged, and 
the receiver aerial correctly deployed.

 

5.  C

The  RX-5 light M-LINK 2.4 GHz receiver can only be used in 
conjunction with transmitters which use MULTIPLEX M-LINK 
transmission technology.    
As of January 2010 these are: 
•  ROYALpro 7, 9 and 16 M-LINK. 
•  ROYALevo or pro 7, 9 and 12 with firmware version V3.xx 

and the HFM4 M-LINK 2.4 GHz RF module. 

•  PROFImc 3010, 3030 and 4000 with the HFM3 M-LINK  

2.4 GHz RF module. 

•  COCKPIT SX M-LINK. 
•  MULTIPLEX transmitters with the HFMx M-LINK 2.4 GHz 

RF module. 

6.  P

The  RX-5 light M-LINK receiver works with a wide range of 
voltages from 3.5 V … 9.0 V, i.e. with receiver batteries con-
sisting of 4 to 6 NiXX cells or 2S LiPo / 2S LiIo batteries. 
! Note: if you wish to use a five-cell (six-cell) NiXX battery, 
check that all the servos, gyros and other components to be 
connected to the system are approved by the manufacturer for 
use on operating voltages up to 7.5 V (9.0 V). If you wish to use 
a 2S LiPo (2S LiIo) pack, check that all the servos, gyros and 
other components to be connected to the system are approved 
by the manufacturer for use on up to 8.4 V (8.2 V). 
!  Note: ensure that the power supply is adequate 
A power supply system in good condition and of adequate 
capacity for the specific application plays an indispensable role 
in the safe operation of any model: 
•  Use only high-quality receiver batteries of adequate capacity. 

Balance and maintain them carefully, and charge them fully. 

•  Ensure that all cables are of adequate conductor cross-

section. Keep all wiring as short as possible, and use the 
absolute minimum of plug / socket connections. 

•  Use high-quality switch harnesses exclusively. 
•  Brief collapses in the power supply voltage (lasting a few 

milli-seconds) have no adverse effect on the receiver. Longer 
voltage collapses to below 3.5 V may cause a receiver reset, 
resulting in a brief interruption in reception. This may be due 
to a receiver battery which is almost flat, too weak or defec-
tive, cables of inadequate cross-section, poor-quality con-
nectors or an overloaded or defective BEC system.
