The vehicle slows down or the steering servo shows only slight or no reaction; the range between transmitter
and vehicle is very short
• Thedrivebatteryisweakordischarged.
For a speed controller with BEC, the receiver and thus also the steering servo is supplied with power through the
drive battery. Therefore, a weak or discharged drive battery will cause the receiver to no longer work properly. Re-
placethedrivebatterywithanew,fullychargedone(beforeinsertinganewdrivebattery,waitatleast5-10minutes

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.

dual rate setting is too low, the steering servo will no longer react.
