Warning
Receiver Vibration-proofing / Waterproofing
(Car)
Vibration-proof the receiver by wrapping it in foam rubber or other vibration-absorbing material and mount it with
thick double-sided tape.
When using the receiver holder supplied with the model kit, mount the holder to the chassis through a rubber
grommet.
(Boat)
Vibration-proof the receiver by wrapping it in foam rubber or other vibration-absorbing material. Also waterproof
the receiver by cruising it in a plastic bag.
If the receiver is exposed to strong vibration and shock, or the ingression of water, it may not operate correctly and you
may lose control of the model.
When using the receiver holder supplied
with the kit, install the receiver through a
rubber grommet.
Connector Connections
Be sure the receiver, servo, battery and connectors are fully and firmly connected.
If vibration from the model causes a connector to work loose while the model is in operation, you may lose control .
Servo Installation
When you install the servos, always use the rubber grommets provided in servo hardware bags. Mount the
servos so they do not directly come in contact with the mount.
If the servo case comes in direct contact with the mount, vibration will be directly transmitted to the servo.
If this condition continues for a long time, the servo may be damaged and control will be lost.
Mechanical plate
When installing the servo, always install the accessory
rubber grommet and grommet 昀氀ush against the servo.
