Rechargeable NiMH
Rechargeable batteries can be used in two forms, loose AA size NiMH battery
cells that are inserted into the included battery holder, or assembled AA size
NiMH battery packs. For both forms, be sure to follow the manufacturer's
care and use instructions.
CAUTION: LOOSE RECHARGABLE BATTERIES MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE
TRANSMITTER AND BATTERY HOLDER FOR RECHARGING. CHARGING THEM IN
THE INCLUDED BATTERY HOLDER MAY CAUSE EXCESSIVE HEAT CAUSING DAMAGE
TO THE HOLDER OR EVEN MELTING OF PLASTIC.
Note: When the transmitter will not be used for 1 week or more, it is highly
recommended to remove any batteries from the battery holder to prevent damage
from leaks and corrosion.
If desired, you can purchase an optional wall charger to connect into the
5.5mm jack on the back of the handle to charge your NiMH batteries while
installed in the transmitter. To avoid damage, turn OFF the transmitter before
charging.
DO NOT attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.

Calibrating ESCs

When calibrating your ESC and transmitter, ensure your Throttle Trim is
centered and your Throttle and Brake EPA settings are set to their maximum
of 100%. This will ensure your ESC reaches full throttle/brake when your
trigger reaches full travel.

recommend you use the beginner mode feature of your transmitter. This will help
reduce the risk of damage caused by a phenomenon experienced users refer to as
a "panic rev".
When operating the steering, orient yourself and the transmitter so that you
are looking at the face of the transmitter wheel. We don't recommend normal
operation like this due to comfort but it is a good place to start for new users.
• Turning the top of the transmitter wheel to the left from center should
make the wheels on the vehicle turn left.
• Turning the top of the transmitter wheel to the right from center should
make the wheels on the vehicle turn right.
Note: If the wheels turn the opposite direction from what they should, see the
section on channel reversing to correct the issue.
