DRIVING PRECAUTIONS

• Maintain sight of the vehicle at all times.

• Routinely inspect the vehicle for loose wheel hardware.

• Routinely inspect the steering assembly for any loose hardware. Driving the vehicle

off-road can cause fasteners to loosen over time.

• Do not drive the vehicle in tall grass. Doing so can damage the vehicle or electronics.

• Stop driving the vehicle when you notice a lack of power. Driving the vehicle when

the battery is discharged can cause the receiver to power off. If the receiver loses power,

you will lose control of the vehicle. Damage due to an over-discharged Li-Po battery is

not covered under warranty.

CAUTION: Do not discharge a Li-Po battery below 3V per cell. Batteries dis-

charged to a voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage may become dam-

aged, resulting in loss of performance and potential ﬁre when batteries are charged.

• Do not apply forward or reverse throttle if the vehicle is stuck.

Applying throttle in this instance can damage the motor or ESC.

• After driving the vehicle, allow the electronics to cool before driving the vehicle again.

IMPORTANT: Keep wires away from all moving parts.

POWERING ON THE VEHICLE

1. Center the ST TRIM and TH TRIM dials on the transmitter.

2. Power on the transmitter.

3. Remove the body from the vehicle.

4. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC.

5. Power on the ESC.

IMPORTANT: The vehicle MUST remain on a ﬂat, level surface and motionless for at least 5

seconds.

BEFORE RUNNING YOUR VEHICLE

1. Check for free suspension movement. All suspension arms and steering components

should move freely. Any binds will cause the vehicle to handle poorly.

2. Charge a battery pack. Always charge the battery pack as per the battery and/or

charger manufacturers’ instructions.

3. Set the transmitter steering trim. Follow the instructions to set the steering trim/subtrim

so that the vehicle drives straight with no input to the steering.

4. Perform a Control Direction Test.

AVC

SENSITIVITY

The ST RATE dial adjusts the sensitivity, or stability, value in the receiver. If you increase the

sensitivity, the AVC

system becomes more sensitive to the vehicle drifting left or right. You

would use maximum sensitivity during high speed driving or drag racing, when you want

the vehicle to stay in a straight line. As the sensitivity value increases, the amount of

steering travel decreases.

Turn the ST RATE knob counter-clockwise to reduce the sensitivity.

Turn the ST RATE knob clockwise to increase the sensitivity.

IMPORTANT: The ST RATE knob will only adjust the sensitivity when

the transmitter is bound to a DSMR

receiver. When the transmitter

is bound to a DSM

, DSM2

or DSM Marine receiver,

the ST RATE knob controls the steering dual rate.

STABILITY ASSIST RECEIVER

AVC

– ACTIVE VEHICLE CONTROL™

The Spektrum receiver features Active Vehicle Control

™

(AVC

) technology that responds

similar to traction control in full-scale vehicles. In addition to traction control, AVC technology

also increases steering stability during high speed driving or while driving over rough terrain.

As you increase the AVC sensitivity, the system increases steering stability and traction control,

similar to reducing the amount of steering rate in a computer transmitter. Reducing the sen-

sitivity value increases the amount of steering control from the transmitter. The receiver also

enables you to quickly turn AVC on or off if you participate in organized racing.

IMPORTANT: You must use digital servos with the AVC receiver. Do not use analog servos as

they willl reduce the performance of the system and may cause overheating.

CALIBRATING THE RECEIVER

1. With the vehicle on a ﬂat, level surface, insert the Bind Plug in the BIND port on the

receiver.

2. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC.

3. Power on the ESC. The orange LED ﬂashes, indicating the receiver is in bind mode.

4. Center the ST TRIM and TH TRIM dials on the transmitter.

5. Press and hold the BIND button while powering on the transmitter.

6. Release the BIND button when the orange LED slowly ﬂashes. The transmitter and receiver

are linked when the orange LED is solid.

7. Pull the transmitter trigger to Full Throttle.

8. Push the transmitter trigger to Full Brake, then return the trigger to center.

9. Turn the transmitter steering wheel to Full Right.

10. Turn the transmitter steering wheel to Full Left, then return the steering wheel to center.

The orange LED ﬂashes once.

11. Remove the Bind Plug, then power off the receiver to save the settings.

12. Power off the transmitter.
