  • Page 19: Tachometer Sensor

    (nitro motors). • Smaller diameter mounting points are better. • The tach sensor must be able to be mounted within 1-2mm of the magnet surface, so you’ll need a solid mounting point that can position the sensor in the right place.
  • Page 20 Some ideas include cable ties, epoxy/hot glue, wire, making a wooden housing that holds the sensor in a specific place, etc. The only “wrong” way to mount it is if the magnets hit the sensor or are too far away, or if the sensor moves while the car is running.
  • Page 21: Binding The Transceiver

    The binding process “locks” the Sensor and a transceiver together so that they listen only to each other. Since the Sensor has forty model memories, it is possible that your Sensor will be used to communicate with as many as forty transceivers. You must therefore perform the binding process once for each transceiver that will communicate with your Sensor.
  • Page 22 Now, every time you turn on the Sensor and set it to the appropriate model ID (see “Managing Models” later in this manual), the Sensor goes to a special “lookup channel” and searches for messages from the appropriate VIN. When you turn on the vehicle’s transceiver, the transceiver goes to the lookup channel and broadcasts its VIN so it can be found by the appropriate Sensor.
  • Page 23 3. After putting your model on a stand to prevent runaways, power up the vehicle and transceiver. 4. Bring the Sensor close to the model. This will help the transceiver and Sensor to “find” each other more easily. 5. In the Sensor’s “Manage Models” function menu, select “Rebind.”...

  • Page 26: Steering Trim

    Steering Trim Steering trim adjusts the center point of the steering servo by adjusting the center point within the steering servo’s total travel range. Unlike steering sub-trim, the steering left and right end points are unaffected by steering trim; by moving the center point of the steering servo using trim, the center position moves closer to one...
  • Page 27 Adjusting Steering Trim using the Steering Trim Buttons You can use the steering trim buttons on the left and right sides of the Sensor to adjust steering trim. Push the trim button forward to advance the trim, backward to reduce it. If you have a sound attached to the trim adjustment you will hear the sound each time the trim is changed.
  • Page 28: Steering Dual Rate

    Steering Dual Rate Steering dual rate adjusts the range of servo movement when the steering wheel is fully turned in either the left or right direction. This is used to increase or decrease the steering sensitivity across the entire servo range.
  • Page 29 Adjusting Steering Dual Rate using the Trim Button You can also use the T2 trim button to adjust the steering dual rate. Dual Rate and End Point Adjustment Full servo range is determined by the left and right end point adjustments. The dual rate value determines the relative servo range between the left and right end points.

  • Page 32 Steering Dual Rate Increment Steering dual rate increment adjusts the sensitivity of the steering dual rate by adjusting the amount dual rate value increments for one “step” of adjustment. For example, setting the dual rate increment value to “5” changes the steering dual rate value by 5 each time that a steering dual rate trim button is pressed once.
  • Page 33 Left End Point Steering (Ch1) Throttle (Ch2) Shift (Ch3) On the driving screen, the left end point is represented by the length of the bar to the left of the pointer on the upper bar.

  • Page 45 Throttle Sub-Trim Throttle sub-trim adjusts the center point of the throttle servo. This differs from throttle trim in that throttle sub-trim adjusts the servo’s entire travel range; by moving the center point of the servo, the throttle and brake end points (throttle, brake) stay the same relative “distance”...
  • Page 46 Throttle Trim Increment Throttle trim increment adjusts the sensitivity of the throttle trim button, by adjusting the amount that the throttle trim value changes for one “step” of adjustment.

  • Page 48 Brake End Point Steering (Ch1) Throttle (Ch2) Shift (Ch3) On the driving screen, the brake end point is represented by the length of the bar to the left of the pointer on the middle bar. The greater the left length of the bar, the greater the brake end point value. The position of the pointer on the bar is affected by end point settings (throttle and brake) and trim setting.
  • Page 49 Adjusting the Brake End Point The brake end point value is a relative value, and is expressed as the percentage of full travel to the BRAKE end. For example, setting the brake end point value to “50” allows the throttle to go to only 50% of full brake.
  • Page 50 Throttle End Point The throttle end point value adjusts how far the throttle goes to the THROTTLE end with respect to its full range of motion to the throttle end. End point adjustment should be adjusted prior to other throttle settings, as the throttle end point value affects other throttle settings.
