The vehicle does not stop when the throttle/brake lever is released
• Correctthedrivingtrimmingonthetransmitter(settingneutralposition).
The vehicle will only run at half speed or stop
• Ifthebatterytypeselectedbythecorrespondingjumper(seechapter9.c)is"Lipo",thespeedcontrollerwillreduce
the motor power to 50% when the battery voltage drops below 6.5 V and switch off the motor at a battery voltage
below6.0V.Thisway,theLiPodrivebatteryisprotectedfromharmfuldeepdischarge.
 Forthesetting"NiMH",themotoroutputwillbereducedatarechargeablebatteryvoltageoflessthan4.5V;the
motor will be switched off if the battery voltage drops to under 4.0 V.
Therefore, always set the speed controller for the proper battery type using the jumper, depending on whether you
connectaLiPooraNiMHdrivebatterytothespeedcontroller.

After switching on the speed controller, the LED at the speed controller will ash but the motor will not work

• Releasethethrottle/brakeleveratthetransmitterandputthetrimmingofthedrivingfunctiontothecentreposition.
Otherwise, the self-test of the speed controller cannot be completed after activation and the speed controller/motor
will not work for reasons of safety.
• For2.4GHzremotecontrolsystems,thereceivermustbetaughttothetransmitter.Thisprocessmaybereferred
to by the terms of "Binding" or "Pairing". The teaching process usually has already been performed by the manu-
facturer; however, it can, of course, also be done again by you. Also observe the separately enclosed operating
instructions for the remote control system.
The vehicle doesn't drive in a straight line correctly

Steering works opposite to the way the turning wheel is turned at the transmitter

Driving works opposite to the movement of the throttle/brake lever at the transmitter
• Usually,thevehicleshoulddriveforwardsifyoupullthethrottle/brakeleveratthetransmittertowardsthehandle.
If this is not the case, activate the reverse setting for the driving function at the transmitter.
