The heart of the R/C system is the Receiver Unit. This box integrates a radio receiver, antenna, servomotor and Pull Rod (actuator), battery holder with 4 AA-size batteries, on-off switch, green "On/OK" LED, and red "Battery Low" LED. The Receiver Unit is 6" long x 3" wide x 2" deep. The Pull Rod extends from the center of the 2" face.

The associated "pistol grip" transmitter is approximately 11.5" high x 7.5" wide x 3" deep. It uses 8 AA-size batteries.  It has a Trim control for adjusting the Pull Rod extension.  The Alkaline transmitter batteries will typically last over one year.

The Receiver Unit will operate for 60-80 hours on a set of non-rechargeable Alkaline batteries (rechargeable batteries can also be used, and recharged between trapping sessions. Sanyo ENELOOP NiMH batteries are recommended).
