"Battery"jumper(B):Setherewhichdrivebatteryiscon-
nected to the speed controller (LiPo or NiMH drive bat-
tery).
Important!
If you are using a LiPo drive rechargeable
battery and set the battery type to NiMH, the
battery will overdischarge and be permanently
damaged.
Always ensure that you select the correct bat-
tery type before driving the vehicle.
The "LiPo" setting reduces the engine power by 50%
when the battery voltage drops below 6.5 V.
With a battery voltage below 6.0 V, the speed controller switches off the engine. In this way, the LiPo battery is pro-
tected from harmful deep discharge.

batteries are inserted in the correct polarity (observe the positive/+ and negative/- markings). Replace the battery
compartment cover.
