End Point Adjuster "END POINT" (EPA)
(All channel)
Use this when performing left and right end point adjustments, throttle high side/
brake side operation amount adjustment, channel 3 and channel 4 servo up side/
down side operation amount adjustment during linkage.
- Correct the maximum steering angle for left and right steering angles when there
is a difference in the turning radius due to the characteristics, etc. of the vehicle.
Maximum steering angle
The EPA function basically determines the maximum steering angle of each channel.
The functions shown below may have been adjusted or the operating range set by EPA
function may be exceeded. Check the linkage each time the following functions are
adjusted.
- Sub trim (all channels) .................................. P53
- Program mixing slave side (all channels) ..... P78
- Idle up (throttle) ............................................ P89
- Throttle off, Engine cut (throttle).................. P91
- Throttle acceration (throttle)......................... P65
ATL trim
ATL trim allows adjustment of the brake side operation amount during operation.
Therefore, when the operating angle is adjusted with throttle EPA, ATL trim must also
be taken into account.
Caution!
A whining noise indicates that the
steering servo is improperly set.
Warning
Function
Operate each servo over its full stroke and be sure
the linkage does not bind or is not loose.
The continuous application of excessive force to a servo may
cause damage and excessive battery drain.
Decide the EPA value at the
contact point.
Adjust the steering servo so that excessive
force is not applied to the servo by the chassis at maximum servo travel.
Adjust the throttle servo so that excessive force is not applied when the engine carburetor is fully
open, fully closed, and the brakes are applied fully.
If the brakes overheat while running, their ability to function properly decreases. Before running,
adjust the suitable maximum servo travel so that excessive force is not applied even when the servo
travel is increased while running.

Fail Safe Function "FAIL SAFE"
(All channel)
Fail Safe Mode (F/S)
This function moves each servo to a preset position when the receiver does not receive a
clear signal from the transmitter.
-When the condition set at "FHSS" is Rx type, fail safe (F/S) can be set only for throttle (TH). Other channels are set to the
normal mode.
-The fail safe data is transferred from the transmitter to the receiver 10 seconds after the transmitter power is turned on. The
GDWDLVWUDQVIHUUHGHYHU\VHFRQGVDIWHUWKDW%HFDUHIXOEHFDXVHQRUPDOO\WKHWUDQVPLWWHUSRZHULVWXUQHGRQÂżUVWDQGWKHUHceiver power is turned on next and the data is transferred for approximately 10 seconds after the receiver power is turned on.
-For gasoline engine cars, for safety we recommend that this fail safe function be used to set the throttle channel in the direction in which the brakes are applied.
Hold mode (HOLD)
This function holds the servo/s at the position they were in immediately before reception was lost. This applies to the T-FHSS type (R304SB...,etc.) and the S-FHSS type
(R2104GF...,etc.) receivers only. When the receiver used is an R603GF/2004GF or other
FHSS type, this function is not available.
Off mode (OFF)
In this model the receiver stops outputting a signal to the servos if the transmitter signal
is lost. The servos become effectively unpowered.
The F/S, HOLD, and OFF modes are automatically reset when signals from the transmitter can be received again.
Battery fail safe function (BFS)
If the receiver battery voltage drops below a certain value when this function is enabled,
the throttle servo moves to the position set by fail safe function. When the battery voltage recovers, the battery fail safe function is automatically reset.
-This function cannot be used when the throttle (TH) is not set to fail safe (F/S).
-This function is for the T-FHSS type (R304SB...,etc.) and the S-FHSS type (R2104GF...,etc.) receiver only. It cannot be used
with the R603GF and R2004FG and other FHSS type.

Set value
The standard value (100% point) of this setup affects the operation amount set by

Convenient usage method
For GP cars, the linkage must have a clearance
because one servo controls the engine carburetor and brake. Thus, there is a noticeable time
delay at both the forward and brake sides. Sharp
response comparable to that of electric motor cars
is obtained by reducing this clearance at the transmitter side.
