{ Check the Rotary Speed Controller )
0 Check the Rotary Speed Controller movements.

Neutral
Reverse
(1)
Set the neutral position by adjusting the length of servo rod.
(2) Check to see if the rotor tums from Reverse .position to High
position. If not change the hole where the rod should be install.
(See step 18, page 10)

Check the following points.
(1) Make sure that the Center Nut and
the Motor Lead Terminals are tight.
(2) Check the Motor Lead Terminals and
Wires to make sure they- do not hit
on the Center Nut.
(3) Make sure that the Speed
Control Rod does not hit on

Every once in a while it is necessary
to remove the Center Nut and clean
the Speed Controller. This will ensure
longer life and higher performance
from your Speed Controller.

( Check before every run
>
(1) Check to see if all bolts and nuts are tightened firrnly.
(2) Check to see if the NiCd battery is fully charged.
(3) Check to see if the steering and speed controller is in ,proportion
to your control of the transmitter.
(4) Check to see that all wiring is properly insulated.
(5) Check to see if parts are moving smoothly,
{ Operating procedures
>
Turn transmitter switch on.
Switch on the receiver.
Check to see if the radio system is working properly,
When tuming off the switches, tum off the receiver first then
transmitter. 0therwise, the servos may be left in a position other
than neutral.
( 0perational Saf'ety )
The same battery powers the radio and motor. As soon as the car
starts to slow down, stop and recharge the battery. 0therwise, you
will quiekly lose control.

The resistor generates a lot of heat while running, Do not keep
running in the low or medium speed for long times.
(less than 1 min.)
SETTING GUIDE
( Basic Setting )
The toe angle effects both straight
running stability and
steering
response. Adjust the tie rods to give
justa slight amount of toe-in for
the best results. (1 ~2 • )
*
Adjust the length of rods, by turning
the ball ends in or out.
(See step 16, page 10)

the big ones until a good compromise of speed and torque is found
for the track you are running,
