m) Attaching and Fastening the Car Body
Push the aerial tube from the bottom of the body through the respective opening.
Put the car body onto the car body holders and secure them with suitable car body clips.
n) Controlling the Vehicle
Operate the throttle/braking lever for the drive function at the transmitter very cautiously and do not drive too fast at
thebeginninguntilyougetusedtothecar'sreactions.Donotmakeanyquickandjerkymovementswiththeoperating
elements of the remote control.
If the vehicle tends to pull towards the left or the right, set the steering trim on the transmitter accordingly.
Stop driving immediately if the vehicle shows any unusual responses to the remote commands or if the vehicle does
not respond at all.
This behaviour could be caused by low drive batteries, low batteries/rechargeable batteries in the remote control or
by too great a distance between vehicle and remote control.
Acoiled,shortenedordamagedtelescopicaerial,interferencesontheradiochannelused(e.g.radiotransmissions
from other devices) or adverse transmission/reception conditions may also cause unusual responses of the vehicle.
Never point the transmitter aerial directly onto the vehicle. It will decrease range! The best range results if the aerials
of the transmitter and the receiver are in parallel to each other.
When the receiver is supplied with power through the BEC of the speed controller used by you, and thus through
thedrivebattery,loworemptydrivebatterieswillcauseunintentionalmovementofthevehicle(e.g.twitchingofthe
steering servo, etc.).
For example, the voltage of the drive battery decreases for a short time under full throttle, so that the receiver will
no longer receive the required operating voltage. The vehicle will speed up, but the steering servo does not react
properly. Stop operating the vehicle at once and use a new, fully charged drive battery.
Before inserting a new, fully charged drive battery into the vehicle, wait for at least 5 to 10 minutes until motor and
speedcontrollerhavecooleddownsufciently.
o) Stopping the Vehicle
To stop driving, proceed as follows:
• Letgoofthethrottle/brakeleveronthetransmittersothatitgoesintoneutralposition,andletthevehiclerunout.
• Whenthevehiclehasstopped,switchoffthespeedcontroller.
Never touch the wheels or the drive mechanism, and make sure you do not move the throttle/brake lever at
the transmitter! Do not touch the motor, speed controller and rechargeable battery. Danger of burns!
• Disconnectthedrivebatteryfromthespeedcontroller.Disconnecttheplug-inconnectioncompletely.
• Nowyoumayturnoffthetransmitter.
