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.

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 |

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.
