E) Steering and Throttle trims:
- The trims are used to fine-tune the point where the servo returns to center.
- Use the ST-TRIM so your vehicle will go perfectly straight when the steering wheel is centered.
If you move the trim to its maximum and the vehicle does not go straight, move the servo horn on the
servo output spline or adjust the linkage to fix the problem. Ideally, the servo horn will have
equal throw in each direction.
- Use the THR-TRIM to adjust the "Drag Brake"; this is the amount of braking that occurs when you
let of the trigger. Be aware that too much may affect the servo end point preventing maximum power.
Increase the throttle EPA is this happens.
- Tip#1: Do not mount the horn on the servo until you turn on the radio and center the trims.
- Tip#2: Always trim your vehicle before you run or race.
F) Tuning Cover:
- Remove the tuning cover to access the servo reversing switches and End Point Adjustments (EPA).
- This is also an interchangeable part with assorted colors and designs to choose from so you may
customize the look of your radio. See "Option Parts" for more info.
G) End Point Adjustments (EPA):
- Used to set the servo end points for the
steering and throttle.
H) Servo Reversing switches:
- These are 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.
- (Note: You should not need to change the "THR" switch from NOR if using
an Electronic Speed Control.)
I) Battery Cover:
- Remove to change batteries.

Question: I installed the batteries in my transmitter, but the power lights do not come on:
Answer:
- Check that the batteries are properly installed by checking the polarity (+ and -).
Question: My radio has power, but I have no control:
Answers:
- Check to be sure the power switch is on and connected to the receiver.
- Make sure the batteries are charged (Replace or recharge if needed.)
- Make sure you are using the proper crystals.
Question: My vehicle is glitching, or the servos and/or speed control is acting erratically:
Answers:
- Check that there are no radios operating on your channel.
- Make sure your electric motor has capacitors and the comutator is clean and brushes are
not worn out. Replace if needed.
- Check for loose screws as metal-to-metal contact can cause interference.
- Make sure your receiver antenna has not been damaged or cut.
- Make sure the power wires are at least 2" away from the receiver.
- Replace the crystals if needed.
- If all fails, send the system in to be serviced, as there may be internal damage.
- Never operate your car or truck in a crowded street with traffic.
- Always extend your transmitter antenna when in operation.
- Always check the battery power indicator before use.
- Do not operate two or more models on the same frequency at the same time.
- Do not operate your model in the rain or run through standing water.
- Do not operate your model within one mile of a radio control racetrack.
- Do not operate your model while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
- Always turn on your transmitter first and then the receiver to prevent loss of control.
- When collapsing your antenna, never push it from the top or it may bend.
- Slower is faster, Do not overdrive your car. A cleaner line around the track is faster than
more top speed. Don't overshoot the corners.
- Reduce your steering dual rate if your car is over-steering or "Loose", and increase the rate if
your car is under-steering or "Pushing."
- Add more drag brake (see Steering and Throttle trims) if your vehicle is "Pushing" into the corners.
Move the trim the other direction so your car creeps forward slightly when the throttle is at neutral if
your car is "Loose" when entering the corners.
- Don't crash! It's better to take a more conservative line than flip over and have to have a turn marshal
turn you back over.
- The most important thing to remember is to have fun!
