Reely ROAD Rockhard Operating Instructions Manual page 37

1. Release throttle/braking lever, vehicle rolls to a halt (or does not move, if required, correct trimming), lever is in
neutral position
2. Drive forwards, slowly pull the throttle/brake lever towards the handle
3. Drive forwards and then brake (vehicle slows down; does not roll to a halt slowly); push throttle/brake lever away
from the handle without stopping
4. Drive forwards and then backwards (wait briefly between changes and leave the lever in its neutral position!)
If the neutral position is not correct (e.g. trimming control slightly off), you cannot switch between forward
and reverse driving. If you have this problem, correct the trimming settings for the driving function at the
transmitter.
Stop driving immediately if the vehicle shows any unusual responses to the remote commands or if the
vehicle does not respond at all.
This behaviour could be caused by low drive batteries, low batteries/rechargeable batteries in the remote
control or by too great a distance between vehicle and remote control.
A damaged telescopic aerial, disturbances on the radio channel used (e.g. other models, radio transmissions
from other devices) or adverse transmission/reception conditions could also be a cause for unusual
responses of the vehicle.
Since the receiver is supplied with power through the speed controller BEC and thus through the drive
battery, low or empty drive batteries will cause unintentional movement of the vehicle (e.g. twitching of the
steering servo, etc.). For example, the voltage of the drive battery decreases for a short time under full
throttle, so that the receiver will no longer receive the required operating voltage. The vehicle will speed
up, but the steering servo does not react properly. Stop operating the vehicle at once and use a new, fully
charged drive battery.
Before the next drive, wait for at least 5 – 10 minutes until motor and speed controller have cooled down
sufficiently.
Wait briefly
