Quick Links

Note: Before you start your Reaction
If you run your Reaction RTR without following the proper break-in procedure, you may damage or fail to get
maximum performance from your engine.
Step 1: Radio Batteries
Install 8 "AA" size alkaline batteries in the transmitter making
sure the positive (+) and negative (-) ends are oriented correctly.
Use only quality alkaline or rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries.
Step 2: Antenna Tube
Locate the antenna tube in the plastic bag with the Operations
Guide. Thread the black antenna wire through the antenna tube.
Then push the antenna into the antenna mounting hole. Attach
the black rubber protective cap over the top antenna tip.

GETTING STARTED

RTR, carefully read through the engine break-in and operating instructions.
Step 3: Charging the Receiver Pack
Your Reaction is equipped with a rechargeable 7.2V starter/
receiver battery pack that is preinstalled in your truck. Before
operation you will first need to charge this battery. Included in
your box is a 110V AC charger. Plug this charger into a proper
wall receptacle. Disconnect the battery plug (located at the back
of the truck) from the receiver harness. Plug the charge lead
into the battery plug. Charge for 4 to 6 hours depending on the
level of charge remaining. Never charge the battery for more
than 6 hours.
Step 4: Operations Check
Turn on your transmitter and check for proper voltage. Slide the
switch on the radio tray to the "ON" position.
Note: Always turn your transmitter on first and off last.
This will prevent a loss of signal to your truck.
Lift the front wheels off the ground and turn the steering wheel
on the transmitter left to right. The wheels should turn smoothly
and with ease. Also operate the throttle and brake, checking for
smooth operation. Do not try to run your Reaction RTR if any
part of the radio is not operating correctly. If the servo operates
slowly, it is possible that the batteries are low and must be
recharged. Never try to operate your Reaction if either the
transmitter or receiver batteries are low.
