Introduction This system consists of the FS-ST8B transmitter and FS-Br01 receiver, and is specially designed for the bait boat model. This system needs to be used with the boat control board. Through the transmitter, users can remotely control the boat's driving, baiting, and light switch. Through the GPS satellite positioning system on the integrated control board, it can automatically navigate the model boat to multiple destinations and return back to the starting place, with the travel distance calculated. When the receiving signal is weak, the model boat will automatically turn back. In order to facilitate the operator to control the bait boat, this transmitter is equipped with a display screen, to allow users to control the status of the bait boat in real time, such as the remote signal strength, number of satellites, transmitter battery level and boat, etc. In addition, it is also equipped with the audible alarm system. There will be an audible alarm when the battery power of the transmitter or boat is too low. 1.1 Transmitter Overview

The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact is minimized during normal operation. The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/Kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. To avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna should be minimized. For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure. Guidelines when used with an accessory designated for this device or when used with an accessory that Contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 0mm from the body. 2. The maximum SAR value is 1.763W/kg when the device used 0mm close to user. Website www.flysky-cn.com Copyright 2023Flysky Technology Co., Ltd.
