5. Eto ati fifi sori
Installation typically involves replacing an existing smoke unit or integrating this unit into a tank that supports a smoke system. Refer to your specific Henglong tank model's manual for detailed instructions on accessing the smoke unit compartment.
- Ṣetan tanki naa: Disconnect the main battery from your RC tank. Carefully open the tank's hull to access the internal electronics and the smoke unit compartment.
- Gbe Ẹka naa soke: Securely mount the TOUCAN RC HOBBY smoke generator unit in the designated compartment. Ensure it is stable and does not interfere with other components. Use appropriate screws or adhesive if necessary (not included).
- Sopọ Tubing:
- Connect one end of a silicone tube to the intake port of the smoke generator pump. The intake port is typically marked or can be identified as the port drawing fluid from the reservoir.
- Connect the other end of this tube to the smoke fluid reservoir within your tank.
- Connect a second silicone tube to the exhaust port of the smoke generator. This tube will direct the smoke vapor to the tank's exhaust outlet.
- Awọn Isopọ Itanna:
- Connect the power wires (red for positive, black for negative) from the smoke generator unit to the corresponding power output on your tank's main board or a dedicated smoke unit power port. Ensure correct polarity.
- If your tank's smoke system requires a signal wire for activation, connect it accordingly. Refer to your tank's main board diagram.
- Fill Smoke Fluid: Fill the tank's smoke fluid reservoir with appropriate RC smoke fluid (not included). Do not overfill.
- Idanwo Awọn isopọ: Before closing the hull, briefly connect the tank's battery and perform a quick test to ensure the unit powers on and the pump operates.
- Secure Hull: Once satisfied with the installation, carefully reassemble and secure the tank's hull.
6. Awọn ilana Iṣiṣẹ
The smoke generator unit is typically controlled via your RC tank's transmitter. The exact method may vary depending on your tank's electronics and transmitter configuration.
- Agbara Tan: Turn on your RC transmitter, then connect the main battery to your RC tank.
- Activate Smoke: Locate the designated button or switch on your RC transmitter that controls the smoke function. Activate it to start the smoke generator.
- Akoko Igbagbona: Allow a short warm-up period (typically 10-30 seconds) for the heating element to reach operating temperature and for the pump to prime the system. Smoke production should begin shortly after.
- Monitor Fluid Level: Regularly check the smoke fluid level in the reservoir. Operating the unit without fluid can cause damage.
- Muu ṣiṣẹ: Turn off the smoke function via your transmitter when not in use or when the fluid runs low.
7. Itọju
- Ìṣàkóso omi: Always use high-quality RC smoke fluid. Avoid using alternative liquids, as they may damage the unit or produce harmful fumes.
- Ninu: Periodically inspect the tubing and ports for blockages or residue. If smoke output decreases, a small amount of isopropyl alcohol can be run through the system (without heat) to clean the pump and lines, followed by fresh smoke fluid.
- Ibi ipamọ: When storing the tank for extended periods, it is recommended to drain the smoke fluid reservoir to prevent clogging or degradation of the fluid.
- Ayewo: Regularly check electrical connections and tubing for wear, kinks, or damage. Replace any compromised parts immediately.
