8. How long transmission distance is the remote and receiver?

Air 10M; Water 1M.

9. How to pair remote with receiver?

-If remote and receiver are paired successfully before, then no need to pair them again.

-If remote and receiver does not get paired before, please pair them according to below steps:

  • Turn off receiver.
  • Select【>4.Pair】and long press function button for 1 second to enter pair status. When screen shows 【Paring…】, turn on receiver and it will auto-pair with remote control in 0.5 second. Red led lights steady. Pairing competed. Remote screen will automatically return to main menu. If auto-pairing time is over 1 second and screen still shows【Pairing…】, pairing fails and it needs to turn off and turn on receiver again to pair them. If you don’t want to continue the pairing process, long press function button to exit to main menu.

10. How to do remote calibration?

Due to environmental changes during use, remote calibration may be out of proportion to the output of PWM signal. Then it needs to do calibration.

Select【>5.Calibration】and long press function button for 1 second to enter Sub-menu. Once enter calibration, it must need to be finished. If don’t continue calibration and exit, remote and receiver will stop working together.

Press throttle trigger to top and loose it. Then press brake trigger to top and loose. When press trigger, the screen will prompt【Calibrating】 and 【 Cal. OK】.

After both two are【 Cal. OK】, long press function button to return to main menu and save the results.

11. Can I use 5.5V to supply power to receiver?

Yes, the receiver can accept max 6V.

12. Can it work with non-Maytech ESCs?

Yes, it’s standard PWM signal and can work with other PWM ESCs.

13. Can it communicate and gain the data from official VESC firmware?

Yes, all Maytech VESC based controllers are with official VESC firmware, the remote firmware can work with official VESC firmware ESCs.  

14. What is the antenna connection type to the MTSKR1905WF receiver?

It’s IPX type connector.

-When (Short press Function button three times) transistor switch is on (display of 【2】in Screen Main interface), transistor switch source will be connected to GND and turn on LED. When it’s off(no display of【2】in Screen Main interface), LED is off.

17. How does Relay Switch work?

-Max current of relay switch contacts is 3A. Recommend use this switch for water pump or main lighting system. Recommend to connect as following:

 Fully waterproof remote for electric skateboard longboard robotics walking robotics airplane Esk8 mountainboard all terrain offroad skateboard Esurf Eskate Efoil Foilsurf jetboard jetski hydrofoil

-When relay switch is in original position(no display of【1】in Screen Main interface) , COM(common point) and CLO(normally close) are connected.

-When Short press Function button two times (display of【1】in Screen Main interface) , COM(common point) and OPE(normally open) are connected.

18. Water get in the screen, will it damage the remote?

No. The Screen is sealed with waterproof Nano coating, not glue. When use it in water, water will get in between the outside and inside screens. It won't influence remote working. When you don’t use it, please put it in dry place and it will dry slowly.

19. When should I charge the remote?

-When remote battery icon has 2 or less bars, it needs to charge the remote. Please keep remote dry when charging.

-Connect wireless charger to power, put remote Charging Point right on the wireless charger; it will automatically charge after 2 seconds.

-Remote screen will show charger input voltage “Input” and current battery voltage “Batt.”.
