EN WATER-RESISTANT VEHICLE WITH WATERPROOF ELECTRONICS Your new Horizon Hobby vehicle has been designed and built with a combination of waterproof and water-resistant components to allow you to operate the product in many “wet conditions,” including puddles, creeks, wet grass, snow and even rain. While the entire vehicle is highly water-resistant, it is not completely waterproof and your vehicle should NOT be treated like a submarine.
EN COMPONENTS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. ECX Ruckus 1/10-scale Monster Truck Spektrum™ DX2E Transmitter AA (4) Batteries DYN4113 2A Peak Battery Charger Dynamite® Speedpack™ 7.2V Ni-MH battery (DYN1050EC) ® ® 3 4 1 2 5 VEHICLE PREPARATIONS CHARGING THE VEHICLE BATTERY 1. Connect the AC power cord to the power slot on the charger, then connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power source. 2. The Power LED and Charging LED will turn GREEN when the charger is connected to the AC power source. 3.
EN INSTALLING TRANSMITTER BATTERIES We recommend using only alkaline AA batteries in the transmitter, however, it is possible to use rechargeable NiMH batteries. CAUTION: If using rechargeable batteries, charge only rechargeable batteries. Charging non-rechargeable batteries may cause the batteries to burst, resulting in injury to persons and/or damage to property. 1. Slide the panel open on the bottom of the transmitter. 2.
EN TRANSMITTER CONTROLS REVERSE SWITCH Allows you to change the direction of steering (ST. REV) and throttle (TH. REV) controls (default settings are “N” for steering and “R” for throttle). STEERING RATE STEERING TRIM Adjusts the amount the front wheels move when the steering wheel is turned left or right. Adjust to make the vehicle drive straight with no input at the steering wheel. STEERING WHEEL THROTTLE TRIM Adjusts the neutral point of the electronic speed control. Control steering.
EN GETTING STARTED 1. Power on the transmitter. 2. Power on the ESC. 3. Do a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle with the vehicle’s wheels off the ground. 4. Start driving slowly, and, if the vehicle does not go straight, adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter. IMPORTANT: Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a flat surface during use of the first battery charge. Properly seating the motor brushes will increase the life and performance of the motor.
EN OPERATION • ALWAYS turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver in the vehicle. Always power off the receiver before turning your transmitter off. • ALWAYS operate your vehicle in a wide open area. Operating the vehicle in a small space or indoors can cause overheating at low speeds. Operating at low speed increases heat in the electronic speed control (ESC). Overheating can damage the vehicle and failure may result. WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED 1. Power off the Electronic Speed Control (ESC). 2.
EN MAINTENANCE SETTING THE GEAR MESH The gear mesh has already been set at the factory. Setting the gear mesh is only necessary when changing motors or gears. You must remove the vehicle’s gear cover (A) to make this adjustment. Proper gear mesh (how the gear teeth meet) is important to the performance of the vehicle. When the gear mesh is too loose, the spur gear could be damaged by the pinion gear of the motor. If the mesh is too tight, speed could be limited and the motor and ESC will overheat.
EN SHOCK CLEANING REAR SHOCK Oil-filled shocks will require regular maintenance due to the oil breaking down or getting dirty. This maintenance should be performed after about every 3 to 5 hours of use, depending on the conditions that the vehicle is used in. • Remove the shock from the vehicle. • Remove the cap from the shock body and dispose of fluid. • Disassemble the shock. Clean thoroughly with DYN5505. Dry parts before assembly.
EN BINDING Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. The DX2E and SR201 are bound at the factory. If you need to rebind, follow the instructions below. 1. With the receiver off, insert the bind plug into the BIND port on the receiver. 2. Power the receiver through any other port. The orange LED will flash continuously, indicating the receiver is in bind mode. 3.
