transmitter on first.
Always turn your TQ 2.4GHz transmitter on first and off last. This
procedure will help to prevent your model from receiving stray
signals from another transmitter, or other source, and running out
of control. Your model has electronic fail-safes to prevent this type
of malfunction, but the first, best defense against a runaway model
is to always turn the transmitter on first, and off last.
In order for the transmitter and receiver to bind to one another,
the receiver in the model must be turned on within 20 seconds
of turning on the transmitter. The transmitter LED will flash fast

red indicating a failure to link. If you miss it, simply turn off the
transmitter and start over.
Always turn on the transmitter before plugging in the battery.
Always use new or freshly charged batteries for the radio
system. Weak batteries will limit the radio signal between the
receiver and the transmitter.
you to lose control of your model.
TQ 2.4GHz RADIO SYSTEM BASIC ADJUSTMENTS
Throttle Neutral Adjustment
The throttle neutral adjustment is located
on the transmitter face and controls the
forward/reverse travel of the throttle trigger.
Change the adjustment by pressing the
button and sliding it to the desired position.
There are two settings available:
50/50: Allows equal travel for both forward and reverse.
70/30: Allows more forward travel (70%) and less reverse travel (30%).
Note: We strongly recommend to leave this control in its factory
location until you become familiar with all the adjustments and
capabilities of your model. To change the throttle neutral adjust
position, turn the transmitter off before adjusting the neutral
position. You will need to reprogram your electronic speed control
to recognize the 70/30 setting. Turn to ESC Setup Programming on
3
page 16 for instructions.
Steering Trim
The electronic steering trim located on the face of the
transmitter adjusts the neutral (center) point of the
steering channel.
Turn on the model.
Multi-Function Knob
The Multi-Function knob can be programmed to
control a variety of functions. From the factory, the
Multi-Function knob controls steering sensitivity,
also known as exponential or "expo." When the knob
is turned counterclockwise all the way to the left
(default position), expo is off and steering sensitivity will be linear
(the most commonly used setting). Turning the knob clockwise will
"add expo" and decrease the steering sensitivity in the initial range
of steering wheel travel left or right from center. For more detail on
steering exponential, refer to page 15.
Loss of the radio signal can cause
Remember, always turn the
TQ transmitter on first and
off last to avoid damage to
your model.
Automatic Fail-Safe
The TQ 2.4GHz transmitter
and receiver are equipped
with an automatic fail-
safe system that does not
require user programming.
In the event of signal loss
or interference, the throttle
will return to neutral and
the steering will hold its
last commanded position. If
Fail-Safe activates while you
are operating your model,
determine the reason for
signal loss and resolve the
problem before operating
your model again.
When rechargeable batteries
begin to lose their charge,
they will fade much faster
than alkaline dry cells. Stop
immediately at the first sign
of weak batteries. Never turn
the transmitter off when the
battery pack is plugged
in. The model could run out
of control.
