Diagram for LiteRadio 1

The below picture is the diagram for LiteRadio 1 Radio Transmitter.

Note: The throttle joystick on LiteRadio 1 sold separately will hold its position when rolling up or bottom, not an automatically centering one. It will adopt a self-centering throttle joystick when it is sold with RTF FPV Kit.

Two different heights of the stick ends for optional grip styles. LiteRadio 1 comes with thumb stick ends out of the factory and also includes pinch stick ends in the package. You can choose the grip styles you like.

To replace the joystick end, please pull out it gently and DO NOT twist it, or it may be damaged.

LED Light Status

The LED light indicates the working status of the radio transmitter.

State of the LED Light	Reason	Solution
Blue light solid on	Working
Red light solid on	The throttle joystick or switches are not in the lowest	Lower throttle and switch to the lowest position. Turn to blue then.
Red light flashing quickly	The radio transmitter is binding	Wait for completing binding
Blue light flashing slowly	Battery reaches the low voltage limit	Charge the transmitter
Red light breathes slowly	On charging
Green light breathes slowly	Charge complete

The radio transmitter has a built-in buzzer. When it alarms twice as "di - di", it means that the battery voltage is too low and the radio transmitter needs to be charged.

Switching Protocol

How to check the current protocol?

The CC2500 version radio transmitter could support 4 different protocols, including Frsky D16 FCC, Frsky D16 LBT, Frsky D8, and Futaba S-FHSS. The current protocol is indicated by the flashing times of the red LED when power on, before the buzzer alarm.

LED Status	Protocol Version
Flash once	Frsky D16 FCC (ACCST 1.X Version)
Flash twice	Frsky D16 LBT (ACCST 1.X Version)
Flash Three Times	Frsky D8
Flash Four Times	Futaba S-FHSS

How to change the current protocol

Below are the steps to change protocol (Frsky FCC D16, Frsky D16 LBT, Frsky D8, or Futaba S-FHSS)

Power off the radio transmitter;
Press and hold the BIND button while powering on the radio transmitter;
Then the flash times of the red LED before buzzer alarms will change, according to the tables above.

Note: LiteRadio 1 only works with D16 ACCST 1.x Frsky protocol. So if you use a Frsky receiver with D16 ACCST 2.X version or ACCESS version, the binding will fail.
