g) Switching on the speed controller
If you have not already done so, switch on the transmitter. Release the throttle/brake lever on the transmitter, do not
move it.
Then turn on the speed controller by moving the slide
switch (A) to the left in the direction of the setup button (B)
(“ON” switch position).
Then wait a few seconds (leave the throttle/brake lever
on the transmitter in the neutral position, do not move it).
The green LED on the speed controller will ash four
times, and there will be four audio signals. This indicates
that the speed controller has detected LiPo drive re-
chargeable batteries with a total of four cells.
The audio signals are generated by a brief acti-
vation of the electric engine.

chargeable batteries might be empty.

controller has not detected a valid transmitter signal. This may have several causes. See chapter 15 for
details. Now, the vehicle is ready for operation.
If the vehicle drive starts, even though the throttle/brake lever on the transmitter is in the neutral position,
adjust the trim on the transmitter until the engine stops.
If necessary, adjust the trim setting accordingly (see chapter 10. a).
Check that the throttle and steering functions are working correctly. Refer to chapter10. b) for instructions on how to
program the speed controller.
Important!
Check the programming of the speed controller if low voltage protection is enabled (normally 3.0 V per cell).
When low voltage detection is disabled, LiPo rechargeable batteries are subject to a deep discharge that
destroys them.
In the neutral position, both LEDs are off. When driving forwards or backwards, the red LED lights up; when driving
forward and at full throttle, the green LED also lights up (the duo-colour LED produces an amber-coloured light).
h) Attaching and securing the chassis
Put the chassis on the brackets and secure it with the safety clips.
