TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Question: I installed the batteries in my transmitter, but the power lights do not come on:
Answer:
- Check that the batteries are properly installed by checking the polarity (+ and -).
Question: My radio has power, but I have no control:
Answers:
- Make sure that the power switch is on and connected to the receiver.
- Make sure that the batteries are charged (Replace or recharge if needed.)
- Make sure that you are using the proper crystals.
Question: My vehicle is glitching, or the servos and/or speed control is acting erratically:
Answers:
- Check that there are no radios operating on your channel.
- Make sure your electric motor has capacitors and the commutator is clean and brushes are
not worn out. Replace if needed.
- Check for loose screws as metal-to-metal contact can cause interference.
- Make sure your receiver antenna has not been damaged or cut.
- Make sure that power wires are at least 2" away from the receiver.
- Replace the crystals if needed.
- If all fails, send your system to be serviced, as there may be internal damage.
WARNINGS
- Never operate your car or truck in a crowded street with traffic.
- Always extend your transmitter antenna when in operation.
- Always check the battery power indicator before use.
- Do not operate two or more models on the same frequency at the same time.
- Do not operate your model in the rain or run through standing water.
- Do not operate your model within one mile of a radio control racetrack.
- Do not operate your model while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
- Always turn your transmitter first and off last to prevent lost of control.
- When collapsing your antenna, never push it from the top or it may bend.
RACER TIPS
- Slower is faster, Do not overdrive your car. A cleaner line around the track is faster than
more top speed. Don't overshoot the corners.
- Reduce your steering dual rate if your car is over-steering or "Loose", and increase the rate if
your car is under-steering or "Pushing."
- Add more drag brake (see Steering and Throttle trims) if your vehicle is "Pushing" into the corners.
Move the trim the other direction so your car creeps forward slightly when the throttle is at neutral if
your car is "Loose" when entering the corners.
- The most important thing to remember is to have fun!
