Installing Batteries: Transmitter Remove the battery cover from the bottom of the transmitter by sliding it away from the base of the handle. Install the four (4) AA-size batteries into the base, noting polarity when inserting each battery. Transmitter with batteries installed Reinstall the battery cover by sliding it back on the handle base.
Battery Pack(s): To install the battery pack remove the battery hold-down strap by removing the clip from the front mounting boss, and then, while lifting the strap, pulling forward in one motion. After you have inserted the fully-charged battery pack reinstall the battery hold-down strap. Notice that the battery hold-down has a flat side while the other side has strengthening ribs; the rib side should be facing down to the battery.
Quick Start Note: Please read the entire manual to gain a full understanding of the 1/10 Strike SCT vehicle, fine-tuning the setup and performing maintenance. 1. Read the safety precautions found on page 3. This is important for your safety and prevention of personal injury. 2. Charge the battery pack you have chosen (NOT INCLUDED). Refer to the manufacturer’s supplied instructions for battery charging information. 3. Install the AA batteries into the Losi LSR-3000 transmitter (see page 9).
The Losi LSR-3000 Radio System The Losi LSR-3000 radio system with Spektrum™ 2.4GHz DSM® technology included with the 1/10 Strike SCT operates on 2.4GHz and provides 79 unique channels, which are automatically selected when the transmitter and vehicle are turned on. The communication between the transmitter and receiver begins in the few seconds after both are turned on. They are bound from the factory to uniquely operate together.
Receiver There is no adjustment required of the receiver. Please note the different slots for connection. Auxiliary Channel Throttle Channel Steering Channel Binding Port There are bind, channel one, channel two and auxiliary slots. The bind slot is used to bind the transmitter to the receiver. The Losi LSR-3000 DSM® radio system uses a unique GUID ID to “bind” the transmitter to each receiver.
Driving the Strike SCT How you drive your 1/10 Strike SCT will also affect your run times. If you are performing runs, going from a standstill to full speed repeatedly, you are asking a lot from your batteries and electronics. Hard acceleration draws a lot of current from any battery and will lead to shortened run time.
Tuning the Front End of the 1/10 Strike SCT Tuning, Adjusting & Maintaining the 1/10 Strike SCT Shock Location: The 1/10 Strike SCT has two mounting locations on the front shock tower. The position can be easily adjusted by simply moving the top of the shock to another hole. The standard location (inside hole on the tower) works best on most surfaces. Moving the top of the shock outward a hole will slow steering response and make the 1/10 Strike SCT smoother in bumps.
Tuning the Front End of the 1/10 Strike SCT (CONT’D) Tuning the Front End of the 1/10 Strike SCT (CONT’D) Outboard Camber Location: The 1/10 Strike SCT provides two outboard mounting options. The outer location helps the 1/10 Strike SCT stay tighter in turns with a more precise steering feel. Moving the link to the inner hole will make the steering react slightly slower and steer smoother.
Tuning the Rear End of the 1/10 Strike SCT (CONT’D) Tuning the Rear End of the 1/10 Strike SCT Shock Location: Moving the shocks in on the arm will result in more forward traction and let the 1/10 Strike SCT drive more square off the turn. Pro-squat is generated by raising the rear of the pivot relative to the front. This will decrease forward traction and initial steering, but provide more on-power steering on high-traction surfaces.
Tuning the Chassis of the 1/10 Strike SCT (CONT’D) Adjusting Gear Mesh: Incorrect gear mesh is the most common cause of stripped spur gears. To set the gear mesh, one method is to cut a narrow strip of notebook paper and thread it in between the gears. Loosen the motor screws and slide the motor and pinion gear into the spur gear. Retighten the motor screws and then remove the strip of paper.
Vehicle runs slowly/slow acceleration: Troubleshooting Your 1/10 Strike SCT Check the battery connectors. Many questions are the result of simple user errors or minor adjustments which are easily addressed. If after reading below you cannot resolve your problem, then please call the Horizon Support Team at 1-877-504-0233. Confirm that the battery is charged. Vehicle will not reverse: Make sure the throttle trim is at neutral.

RC Terminology Receiver – A device mounted into the vehicle that receives and decodes a signal sent by a transmitter. Servos, ESC and other devices are plugged into the receiver. BEC (Battery Elimination Circuit) – The BEC is used to eliminate the need for a receiver pack to power the radio system. On most electric vehicles this is located in the electronic speed control (ESC), but can also be a standalone device. Resistance – As used here refers to the power loss from the battery to the ESC and motor.
