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 INSTALLING TRANSMITTER 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. Install 4 AA alkaline batteries into the transmitter, following the instructions provided for your radio system. NEVER install damaged batteries, batteries of mixed types or batteries of different ages in the transmitter. Remove exhausted batteries.
EN TRANSMITTER CONTROLS Battery Level Indicator Reverse Switch Solid Red and Green: Battery voltage is good (Above 4V). Solid Red: Battery voltage is critically low (below 4V). Replace transmitter batteries. Allows you to change the direction of steering (ST. REV) and throttle (TH. REV) controls.
EN GETTING STARTED 1. Power on the transmitter. 3. Do a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle with the vehicle’s wheels off the ground. 2. Power on the ESC. 4. Start driving slowly, and, if the vehicle does not go straight, adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter. NOTICE: 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 turn 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).
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 REAR SHOCK ECX1037 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 A Failsafe In the unlikely event the radio connection is lost during use, the receiver will reduce the throttle to idle. The steering channel holds the last input command. If you power on the receiver before powering on the transmitter, the receiver enters failsafe mode with throttle at idle. When you power on the transmitter, normal control resumes.
EN LIMITED WARRANTY What this Warranty Covers Inspection or Services Horizon Hobby, Inc. (“Horizon”) warrants to the original purchaser that the product purchased (the “Product”) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the date of purchase.
