battery in the vehicle prevents powerful servo operation. Before going on a drive, check the charge condition of the
rechargeable batteries or batteries.
Check the receiver power supply before and after every drive. If the voltage is too low, the servos will only show
weak reactions, so that the vehicle will no longer react to the control commands from the transmitter. The receiver
may also show unpredictable responses.
Terminate the drive at once if the reaction of the receiver system is not as desired. First switch off the motor, then
switch off the receiver power supply and last the transmitter. Then replace the batteries/rechargeable batteries or
recharge rechargeable batteries.
