The vehicle will only run at half speed or stop.

below 6.5 V and to switch off the motor at a battery voltage below 6.0 V.
 Thisway,theLiPodrivebatteryisprotectedfromharmfuldeepdischarge.
Therefore, always set the speed controller for the proper battery type using the jumper, depending on whether you
connectaLiPooraNiMHdrivebatterytothespeedcontroller.
After switching on the speed controller, the LED at the speed controller will ash but the motor will not work.
• Checkthatthetransmitterison.

• Releasethethrottle/brakeleveratthetransmitterandputthetrimmingofthedrivingfunctiontothecentreposition.
Otherwise, the self-test of the speed controller cannot be completed after activation and the speed controller/motor
will not work for reasons of safety.
• For2.4GHzremotecontrolsystems,thereceivermustbetaughttothetransmitter.Thisprocessmaybereferred
to by the terms of "Binding" or "Pairing". The teaching process usually was performed by the manufacturer already;
however, it can, of course, also be done by you again. Also observe the separately enclosed operating instructions
for the remote control system.

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

If this is not the case, activate the reverse setting for the driving function at the transmitter.
