IV. QUICK TIPS
q When your vehicle starts to lose power, it may
lose functions or performance. It’s time for fresh
batteries. Your vehicle’s running time may change
depending on your driving style.
w Radio interference can effect your vehicle's
performance. Interference can be caused by other
R/C vehicles running on the same frequency,
electrical wires, large buildings or CB radios. Try to
stay away from these!
e Point your transmitter up - not down toward your
vehicle. If your vehicle gets too far away, it won’t
work properly.
r Don't drive your vehicle in sand or through water
or snow. If your vehicle does get wet, wipe with a
towel and allow to dry completely overnight.
t Don’t store your vehicle near heat or in direct
sunlight. Always turn switches OFF and remove all
batteries for storage.
