I1)
Consult the Set-Up sheet and Tuning Section to determine if your servo will be in
the forward or rear position. Remove the servo mount bag ASC 7336) from Bag
I. It includes two servo mounts and the necessary bolts. There are also some
spacers allowing fine adjustment of your servo position, though most Team
drivers only use them to space the servo forward if it hits the chassis when trying
to use the rear mounting holes.
I2)
Install the servo mounts to your servo (servo not included) using the button head
screws and washers included in the servo mount bag. We've found this easiest
to do by threading the button head screws into the mounts slightly, sliding the
mounts on to the servo tabs, and then finger tighten the screws. The mounts go
under the mounting tabs; looking at the top of the servo, the mounts should face
down while the output shaft is on the left.

- Page 2 TEAM TIP: This is the easiest point at which to center your servo. The quickest way to do this is to plug the servo into another car, and power it on briefly. Alternatively, if you have the electronics you’ll be installing in your X – 6 Squared handy, simply hook the battery, speed controller, receiver, and servo.
- Page 3 Setting the servo aside for a moment, it’s time to make the small drag link (ASC 9170) which connects the servo to the bellcrank system. Find the two small ball cups and the threaded rod. We recommend pre-tapping the two ball cups with a normal 4-40 screw to make installing the threaded rod easier, but don’t let the gorilla over-do things.
- Page 4 Using the two 5/16” flathead screws (ASC 7336), install the servo on its mounts into the chassis. Once again, these photos show the forward servo mount. The screws come up through the chassis and thread into the holes in the servo mounts installed in step I2.
- Page 5 I11) Install the battery (not included) and X Factory CF battery strap (1223) using the 4-40 1” flat head screws (6028). With most LiPo batteries 4200 MAh and lower the battery strap will ‘pop’ onto the posts in the chassis and the screws will secure it.
- Page 6 I12) If you are using Lipo, install the ESC (not included) using double-sided tape in the center of the chassis just ahead of the battery, and the receiver in one of the side bays. With NiMh, the ESC and receiver will each go in one side bay. There are two antenna mounts, so you can use the receiver on either side.
- Page 7 I14) Apply the window masks to the inside of the body, still attached to their low-tack backing tape. Line up the white masks with the window lines molded in the body. Once lined up, firmly press the masks to the lexan: they’ll seem to turn from white to blue once fully pressed on.
- Page 8 I16) Cut out the wing; check the Tuning Section to determine what the various cut lines will do on the track. Cut two holes a bit less than 1/4” (5 mm) diameter on either set of dimple marks. The Tuning Section and Set-Up sheet will tell you which set of holes to use.
