Setting Lock
Once you’ve adjusted all of these settings the way you
like them, you may want to disable the Multi-Function
knob so none of your settings can be changed. This is
especially handy if you operate multiple vehicles with a
single transmitter via Traxxas Link
™
Model Memory.
Multiple Settings and the Multi-Function Knob
It is important to note that settings made with the
Multi-Function knob are “overlaid” on top of each other.
For example, if you assign the Multi-Function to adjust
Steering Percentage and set it for 50%, then reassign
the knob to control Steering Sensitivity, the transmitter
will “remember” the Steering Percentage setting.
Adjustments you make to Steering Sensitivity will be
applied to the 50% steering throw setting you selected
previously. Likewise, setting the Multi-Function knob to
“disabled” will prevent the knob from making further
adjustments, but the last setting of the Multi-Function
knob will still apply.
TRAXXAS LINK MODEL MEMORY
Traxxas Link Model Memory is an exclusive, patent-
pending feature of the TQi transmitter. Each time the
transmitter is bound to a new receiver, it saves that
receiver in its memory, along with all the settings
assigned to that receiver. When the transmitter and
any bound receiver are switched on, the transmitter
automatically recalls the settings for that receiver. There
is no need to manually select your vehicle from a list of
model memory entries.
Model Lock
The Traxxas Link Model Memory feature can store up
to thirty models (receivers) in its memory. If you bind
a thirty-first receiver, Traxxas Link Model Memory will
delete the “oldest” receiver from its memory (in other
words, the model you used the longest time ago will be
deleted). Activating Model Lock will lock the receiver in
memory so it cannot be deleted.
You may also bind multiple TQi transmitters to the same
model, making it possible to pick up any transmitter
and any previously bound model in your collection
and simply turn them on and drive. With Traxxas Link
Model Memory, there is no need to remember which
transmitter goes with which model, and there is never
a need to have to select any model from a list of model
memory entries. The transmitter and receiver do it all for
you automatically.
To activate Model Lock:
1. Switch on the transmitter and receiver you wish to lock.
2. Press and hold MENU. Release when the status LED
blinks green.
3. Press MENU three times. The status LED will blink green
four times repeatedly.
4. Press SET. The status LED will blink green in single-flash
intervals.
5. Press SET once. The status LED will blink red once
repeatedly.
6. Press MENU once. The status LED will blink red twice
repeatedly.
7. Press SET. The LED will blink rapidly green. The memory
is now locked. Press and hold MENU to return to driving
mode. Note: To unlock a memory, press SET twice at
step 5. The LED will blink rapidly green to indicate the
model is unlocked. To unlock all models, press MENU
twice at step 6 and then press SET.
To delete a model:
At some point, you may wish to delete a model you no-
longer drive from the memory.
1. Switch on the transmitter and receiver you wish to delete.
2. Press and hold MENU. Release when the status LED
blinks green.
3. Press MENU three times. The status LED will blink green
four times repeatedly.
4. Press SET once. The status LED will blink green once
repeatedly.
5. Press MENU once. The status LED will blink green twice
repeatedly.
6. Press SET. The memory is now selected to be deleted.
Press SET to delete the model. Press and hold MENU to
return to driving mode.

with a built-in failsafe
function that returns
the throttle to its last
saved neutral position
in the event of a signal
loss. The LED on the
transmitter and the
receiver will rapidly
flash red.
