TRAXXAS STABILITY MANAGEMENT (TSM)
Traxxas Stability Management or
TSM allows you to experience all
the speed and acceleration that
was engineered into your Traxxas
model by helping you to maintain control of the vehicle in low-
traction situations. TSM helps provide straight ahead full-throttle
acceleration on slippery surfaces, without fishtailing, spinouts, or
loss of control. TSM also dramatically improves braking control.
High speed cornering and control is also made possible as TSM
makes corrections for you, without intruding on your fun, or
creating unexpected side effects.
The Multi-Function knob on
the TQi transmitter has been
programmed to control TSM.
The recommended (default)
setting for TSM is to rotate the
knob to the 12:00 position (the
zero mark on the dial).
Turn the knob clockwise to
increase assistance; turn the
knob counterclockwise to
decrease assistance. Turn the
Decrease
knob counterclockwise to its
assistance
stop to turn TSM completely
off. Note: TSM is deactivated
automatically when driving or TSM off
braking in reverse.
When driving on surfaces with
some traction, decrease the TSM setting to allow the vehicle to feel
more "loose" for power sliding, drifting, and so on. On surfaces with
very little traction (loose dirt, smooth concrete, ice/snow), increase
TSM to maximize acceleration and control.
Drive with TSM on and off to test how it is making your control of
the vehicle easier and more precise. For more information, visit
Traxxas.com/tsm.
Note: TSM must be completely turned off while adjusting
steering trim.
SETTING UP THE ANTENNA
The receiver antenna has been set up and installed from the
factory. The antenna is secured by a 3x4mm set screw. To remove
the antenna tube, simply remove the set screw with the included
1.5mm wrench.
When reinstalling the antenna, first slide the antenna wire into the
bottom of the antenna tube until the white tip of the antenna is at
the top of the tube under the black cap. Next, insert the antenna
tube into the mount while making sure that antenna wire is in the
slot in the antenna mount; then, install the set screw next to the
antenna tube. Use the supplied 1.5mm wrench to tighten the screw
just until the antenna tube is securely in place. Do not overtighten.
Do not bend or kink the antenna wire (see the sidebar for more
information). Do not shorten the antenna tube.
