7. Charging the Batteries

a) Charging the Receiver Battery

• For operation of the vehicle, a separate, high-performance receiver current supply is required because the power

demand is very high, particularly for the steering servo.

We recommend using a high-current-capable 5-cell NiMH hump battery pack as receiver power supply.

• Disconnect the receiver battery from the receiver before charging and remove it from the vehicle’s battery box.

• Observe the operating instructions for the charger used when charging the receiver batteries.

• Rechargeable batteries heat up when charged or discharged (driving the vehicle). Wait until the rechargeable batteries

have reached room temperature before charging them. The same applies after the charging procedure. Do not use

the rechargeable battery in the vehicle until it has cooled down completely after the charge process.

b) Charging Rechargeable Batteries in the Transmitter

Also observe the separately enclosed operating instructions for the transmitter.
