InsTallIng The baTTerIes
The DX3E radio system is supplied with 4 AA alkaline batteries required for operation that provide over 16 hours of run time. Many drivers prefer alkaline batteries over rechargeable batteries finding it more convenient to simply replace the batteries when depleted rather than taking the time to recharge.
To install the batteries:
Remove the battery door and install 4 AA batteries observing the polarity marked on the battery holder.
Replace the battery door.

SPEKTRUM DX3E USER GUIDE
Optional NiMH 1.2-volt AA rechargeable batteries
(SPM9525) can also be used. If rechargeable batteries are used, they can be conveniently charged without removing them from the transmitter by using the charge jack located on the back side of the transmitters base.
Use Spektrum’s charger (SPM9526) to charge rechargeable batteries in the DX3E.
IMPORTANT: All Spektrum charge jacks are center-pin negative. This is opposite of many chargers. Before using a charger, make sure the connector is center-pin negative. This can be done using a voltmeter. Also, unlike conventional radio systems that use 8 cells to power the transmitter, the DX3E uses 4 cells.
This is due to the electronics being more efficient. When charging, be sure to use a charger designed for 4 cells (a 4.8-volt battery pack) when charging the transmitter. Many drivers simply make a harness and use the same charger used to charge their car packs but turn the current rate down to 1 to 2 amps.
Warning: Charge only rechargeable batteries. Nonrechargeable batteries may burst causing injury to persons and/or damage to property.
