INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK

Install the battery pack with the battery wires facing the rear of the
model. Swing the battery hold down towards the chassis and snap
(lock) the end into the front hold-down retainer.
Note: The battery hold down can be rotated on its pivot to
accommodate different height battery packs.

TRAXXAS TQ 2.4GHz RADIO SYSTEM
The Traxxas High-Current Connector
Your model is equipped with the Traxxas
High-Current Connector. Standard connectors
restrict current flow and are not capable of
delivering the power needed to maximize the
output of the XL-5 HV. The Traxxas connector's gold-plated terminals
with large contact surfaces ensure positive current flow with the
least amount of resistance. Secure, long-lasting, and easy to grip, the
Traxxas connector is engineered to extract all the power your battery
has to give.
SETTING UP THE ANTENNA
The receiver antenna has been
set up and installed from the
factory. The antenna is secured
by a 3x4mm set screw. To
remove the antenna tube,
simply remove the set screw
with the included 1.5mm
wrench.
When reinstalling the antenna,
first slide the antenna wire into
the bottom of the antenna
tube until the white tip of the
antenna is at the top of the
tube under the black cap. Next,
insert the antenna tube into the
mount while making sure that
the antenna wire is in the slot in the antenna mount; then, install the
set screw next to the antenna tube. Use the supplied 1.5mm wrench
to tighten the screw just until the antenna tube is securely in place.
Do not over tighten. Do not bend or kink the antenna wire! See the
side bar for more information. Do not shorten the antenna tube.
