Hitec RC is one of the most respected remote control brands on the marketplace, providing model fliers with the transmitters and receivers they need to have complete control over their models. The Hitec brand employs plenty of different basics to make sure that you have the best model flying experience possible.
The first basic to note when looking at Hitec systems is the digital system used by their products. Most of the brand’s radios are working off of digital now, a technology that helps to stop glitches. Digital technology will not be able to be interfered with – this means that no signal will come in between you and your receiver. Your transmitter will always have complete control over your system. While helping to reduce interference, the system also helps to give you greater speed as you command your model to perform an action. The transmitter and receiver are communicating faster than ever, eliminating any potential lag time you may have seen with other transmitter models.
The system also uses the basic 2.4 GHz system that is somewhat standard on new RC systems for model planes. This AFHSS 2.4GHz system is going to help to keep you connected to your receiver at all times. The transmitter is going to work off of two frequencies, forced to choose the two frequencies that have the least amount of traffic on them. This means that you will constantly have two frequencies to work off of – even if one suffers from interference, the other keeps you in complete control.
Hitec RC systems are known for having large screens on their transmitters. Specific systems, like the Aurora 9, feature a 5.1 inch LCD screen that gives you the complete menu control that you need. The system features a somewhat unusually-large 20 character model name limit, and features a stunning 30 model memories with its 9 control channels.
The Hitec team has also worked to make sure it has covered some of the smaller issues that model fliers face on a regular basis. The system has an adjustable backlight to ensure that the menu can be read in all situations and conditions. The system also features a power management system that is going to provide you with an auto shut-off time. These small additions to the transmitter will actually make your model flying experiences that much easier to handle.
