REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
and accessories. All of these items should be available from your
local hobby shop.
WHERE TO RUN
areas that are near water (pools, lakes, etc). Run the model only
on dry surfaces. Mud and water will damage the electronic com-
ponents and increase the wear on all mechanical parts. When
choosing an area to run, always consider what would happen if
you lost control of the car at full throttle.
CHARGE THE BATTERIES
The Street Sport requires a fully charged 7.2 volt Nicad battery
pack (not included). You can use either side-by-side racing style
pack or the more common stick pack. The battery compartment on
the Street Sport is designed to handle both. The Street Sport's
run time is greatly affected by the milliamp hour (mAh) rating of the
batteries. A 3000 mAh battery pack will theoretically run twice as
long as a 1500 mAh sport pack. We recommend that you use a
high-capacity battery and a high-quality peak detecting charger to
charge the battery. Because it takes some time to charge batteries,
begin charging your battery now as you get the Street Sport ready
to drive. Follow the charger manufacturer's directions for charging
and caring for your battery packs.
