    The following is an overview of the various functions and adjustments found on the Mini-Rock Crawler radio system. Since the Mini-Rock Crawler operates on a radio signal you control, it is important for you to read and understand about all of these functions and adjustments before driving.
  • Page 3 ™ ® radio system included in the Mini-Rock Crawler operates on .4GHz, and provides 79 different channels, which are automatically selected when the transmitter and vehicle are turned on. The communication between the transmitter and receiver starts in the few seconds after the transmitter and vehicle are both turned on. This is called the “binding process. ” The Losi DSM radio system will not interfere with previous technology radio systems that operate on 7MHz or 75MHz frequencies and you will not receive any interference from them.

As your rock crawling skills improve, we have included a steering arm that eliminates the servo saver. Although this setup provides more precise steering, it does put your servo gears at risk for breakage.
