Step 1: Radio Batteries

Install 8 “AA” size alkaline batteries in the transmitter making

sure the positive (+) and negative (-) ends are oriented correctly.

Use only quality alkaline or rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries.

Step 2: Antenna Tube

Locate the antenna tube in the plastic bag with the Operations

Guide. Thread the black antenna wire through the antenna tube.

Then push the antenna into the antenna mounting hole. Attach

the black rubber protective cap over the top antenna tip.

Step 3: Charging the Receiver Pack

Your Reaction is equipped with a rechargeable 7.2V starter/

receiver battery pack that is preinstalled in your truck. Before

operation you will first need to charge this battery. Included in

your box is a 110V AC charger. Plug this charger into a proper

wall receptacle. Disconnect the battery plug (located at the back

of the truck) from the receiver harness. Plug the charge lead

into the battery plug. Charge for 4 to 6 hours depending on the

level of charge remaining. Never charge the battery for more

than 6 hours.

Step 4: Operations Check

Turn on your transmitter and check for proper voltage. Slide the

switch on the radio tray to the “ON” position.

Note: Always turn your transmitter on first and off last.

This will prevent a loss of signal to your truck.

Lift the front wheels off the ground and turn the steering wheel

on the transmitter left to right. The wheels should turn smoothly

and with ease. Also operate the throttle and brake, checking for

smooth operation. Do not try to run your Reaction RTR if any

part of the radio is not operating correctly. If the servo operates

slowly, it is possible that the batteries are low and must be

recharged. Never try to operate your Reaction if either the

transmitter or receiver batteries are low.

GETTING STARTED

Note: Before you start your Reaction

™

RTR, carefully read through the engine break-in and operating instructions.

If you run your Reaction RTR without following the proper break-in procedure, you may damage or fail to get

maximum performance from your engine.

Step 5: Fueling Starting Your Engine Fill your fuel bottle and then lift the lid on your fuel tank and fill it full. Note: For the best possible performance and engine protection we recommend using Blue Thunder Sport Fuel 20% Blend (DYN2320). After fueling is complete push down on the fuel tank cap to ensure that it is sealed. Remember to also put a cap on your fuel bottle and re-seal your fuel container. Failing to do so can cause your fuel to go bad and not tune correctly.
