Operation Battery Connection • Only use optional manganese dry battery or NiCd /NiMH 1.2volt, individual AA size rechargeable battery. (LiPo battery must not be used.) • Remove the cover and install your battery to battery socket. Then, replace the cover making sure it is closed securely. • When low voltage warning alarm is activated, please use new battery or recharge the used battery. Please make sure the correct polarity when installing your battery. Low-voltage warning for transmitter battery Please charge Alkaline 4 cell or Nixx 4 cell battery before use. When it will beep continuously due to low voltage warning, please stop an operation, then recharge your battery or replace it. (Do not use Lixx battery and please only use Alkaline or Nixx battery.) Battery Charging If rechargeable battery is in use, you can charge it up to 150mA with optional charging adapter. We may notice that little heating will be occurred during use, which means it is working properly. Now that this product features 4 cell battery packs, it is allowed to use within its specification. Otherwise, it may cause damage to your model. Cautions The improper use will cause fire. So please keep the safety rules. Reference picture (Correct polarity)
Receiver installation 1. Install your receiver on the flat surface to avoid any oscillation. 2. Be aware you should keep your antenna at least 10mm away from any power wires to prevent interference. 3. Be sure not to cut off any antenna wire, as it will shorten your operating range. Steering and trigger tension adjustment Steering wheel position adjustment
Throttle Trigger Adjustment Installation for Left-handed users 1. Disconnect your bolts and coverage. 2. Disconnect steering wheel part. 3. Disconnect transmitter connector. 4. Install your steering wheel part on your left side. Then, install the connector again then, coverage and bolts. Now, your transmitter can be used for left-handed users.
Binding & RF Range Test BIND Press and hold Bind button for 3 sec while your receiver is powered on and then LED indicator is off. Now press Bind button of your transmitter and then receiver’s LED indicator is off. RF RANGE TEST When BIND button is touched after the connection between transmitter and receiver, RF RANGE TEST is now activated. RF TEST is continued during 90 seconds and it is automatically deactivated. RF RANGE TEST is deactivated by touching BIND button during RF RANGE TEST mode. Please note that your model is not controllable if your model is far away from you during Test mode due to the short transmit distance. Control Switch Functions 1. REV (Reverse Switch) This is used to change the direction of the servo travel for proper control when activated. If you steer right and the wheels go left, change the “ST” switch from “Nor” to “Rev” or “Rev” to “Nor” if needed. The same applies to the throttle. 2. ST D/R (Steering Dual Rate) It is used to adjust the overall travel of the steering servo. (Adjustable from 0 % to 150%) 3. TH EPA-FW, EPA-BR (TH EPA-FW, EPA-BR) This is used for throttle end point adjustment and for brake and reverse amount. (Adjustable from 0% to 150%)
4. TRIM The trims are used to fine-tune the point where the servo returns to center. (Adjustable from -37.5% to +37.5%) ST: Use the ST-TRIM so your vehicle will go perfectly straight when the steering wheel is centered. (Adjustable from -37.5% to +37.5%) TH: Use the THR-TRIM to adjust the amount of brake that occurs when your engine’s idle is too low or high and your ESC is not perfectly at neutral. (Adjustable from -37.5% to +37.5%) Fail Safe Mode Configuration It should be programmed after binding process. The default value is “Free” mode. Fail Safe is set to throttle channel (CH2) Move your throttle to the position on which you act fail safe mode. Now touch and hold BIND button for 3 sec until fail safe mode is set. (Buzzer beeps 3 times) Press BIND button for 3 sec again and fail safe is deactivated. Now return to “Free” mode. (Buzzer beeps twice) After returning to Free mode, turn your transmitter off so that Fail safe mode is acting properly.
(Control Switch) BIND Button Electric model’s Fail safe position (Neutral) Engine model’s Fail safe position (Brake): Trigger and Steering Calibration While pressing BIND button, turn your transmitter on. Press BIND button for 5 sec until your transmitter beeps twice and it is returned to Calibration Model. Move steering and throttle to back and forward, left and right, then move to neutral position again. Now your transmitter beeps twice, indicating Calibration Setup is now set.

CH1 CONNECTOR 1) Port 1, 2 should be connected with the servo or ESC. 2) Port 3 supports low voltage warning alarm with beep and LED indicator. In addition, it is available to use with telemetry sensor. When using receiver battery (Nixx 4~5 cell, LiPo 2 cell), it needs to be connected to Port3. As for low voltage warning alarm, the default value is 3.7V. Caution: When using LiPo 2 cell for receiver battery, you may protect your battery from any damage by using optional smart box, which ensures voltage adjustment and warning alarm function. 3) Port 4 (T/V connector) is designed that it will activate the beep and LED indicator when your engine gets hot. Warning alarm would be activated if the batter is discharged down to 70% from fully charged within voltage range (1.0V~25.5V). If you connect the used battery which has already discharged capacity instead of fully charged battery, the warning alarm will be activated when the capacity of the used battery reaches down to 70% from its voltage capacity. Caution: It is not allowed to connect your battery to T/V Connector directly. Please make sure to connect with Voltage/Temperature sensor cable (S8362). This port is only for measurement for the voltage of power battery. Please note that it is not for input power. <Voltage/Temperature Sensor Configuration> - Item/Order No. S8362 Ex Voltage (+): Connect ESC power connector (+) NTC Thermal: Connect Engine head Connect sensor to Port 4(T/V Connector) as above. Temp sensor should be installed on engine head and Volt sensor should be installed on ESC power connector(+). Caution: Warning alarm may not be activated, depending on weather condition or mounting location. If it is not activated, change mounting location or adjust temperature value with optional smart box (Telemetry box). (Default value: 100℃) Caution: For your safe use, we recommend fully charging your battery before use. Warning alarm function is automatically activated when your battery capacity is lower than 70%, regardless of power battery’s charging status. 4) Receiver Indicator LED’s LED OFF: Very good signal condition LED blinks: Not good signal condition LED ON: No signal T V G 10K/C NTC Thermistor Ex Voltage(+)
Smart Box (Configuration by Telemetry) The use of optional smart box supports easy configuration. When operating in SETTING & DATA VIEW mode in telemetry box, the screen appears as follows. Smart Box (#33700) 1. ALARM VOLT It is used for low battery warning program. (Adjustable from 3.5V to 8.0V) The default value is 3.7V. 2. ALARM TEMP It is used for receiver’s warning program (Adjustable from 30℃ to 80℃) The default value is 65℃ 3. PERIOD It is used to set the speed of receiver’s output signal. (Selectable 10msec or 20msec) 4. ALARM EX-VOLT Selectable auto, 2.0V~24.0V (Default value: Auto) Detectable from 1.0V to 25.5V (LiPo 4 cell=max 25.2V) In “Auto” selection, Low voltage warning alarm is activated at 70% of detected voltage when power is on. 5. ALARM EX-TEMP Connect Temperature Sensor to Port 4 (T/V Connecter). Adjustable from 50℃ to 150℃ (Default value: 100℃) ※ If you have a transmitter that does not have the feature setup for temperature, the temperature is fixed at a specific value.
