a) Remove Car Body

Pull the safety clips out and take off the car body upwards.

b) Installing the Receiver Aerial Cable

Route the aerial cable through the enclosed aerial tube

and plug it into the corresponding holder of the receiver

box;seearrowinthegureontheright.

For a wide range, the aerial needs to protrude from the

vehicle as vertically as possible.

Ensure that the aerial cable is not damaged. Never short-

en the aerial cable! Never coil the aerial cable! This greatly

reduces the range!

c) Conguring the Speed Controller

The speed controller has two jumpers to congure the

driving function and the rechargeable battery type.

Jumper "Reverse" (A): This switches reverse driving off

("Disable") or on ("Enable").

Jumper "Battery" (B): Sets what sort of drive battery is

connectedtothespeedcontroller(LiPoorNiMH).

Important!

If you use a LiPo drive battery but set the re-

chargeablebatterytypetoNiMH,therecharge-

able battery will be deep discharged and de-

stroyed.

Therefore, always set the proper rechargeable

battery type before operating the vehicle.

The setting "Lipo" causes the speed controller to reduce

the motor power to 50% when the battery voltage drops

below 6.5 V.

The speed controller switches off the motor below a bat-

tery voltage of 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.
