Adjusting Throttle Exponential
Throttle Exponential can be variably adjusted from Mild through Linear to Quick. In general, reduce the Exponential
percentage value on a slippery track or with a model that has a higher-torque motor or engine. Increase the
Exponential percentage value on a high-grip track or with a model that has a lower-torque motor or engine.
Throttle Exponential affects the Throttle High side only (throttle trigger pulled back). It does not affect the
Throttle Brake side (throttle trigger pushed forward).
1) From within the EXP menu, press the CH key to display CH2. CH2 0% will be
displayed in the Programming Window.
2) Press the + or - keys to increase or decrease the Throttle Exponential percentage
value. Decreasing the Throttle Exponential percentage value will make the throttle
less sensitive around neutral and increasing the Throttle Exponential percentage
value will make the throttle more sensitive around neutral.
EXP CH2 setting range is -100% (Mild) to 100% (Quick). The default setting is 0% (Linear).
ABS - ANTi-LOCk BrAkiNg
The Anti-Lock Braking function makes it possible to achieve stable braking even on a slippery track. With stable
braking, your model is better able to trace an exact line under braking. When the Anti-Lock Braking function is Active,
the throttle servo will pulse when you apply brake. Three Pulse Rate values are available to suit your particular
model, track conditions, and driving style.
The Anti-Lock Braking function is primarily used on gasoline or glow (nitro) models that feature a throttle
servo. It can be used on an electric model that uses an electronic speed control, however, if your electronic
speed control features a reverse function, the Anti-Lock Braking function will not operate properly.
Anti-Lock Braking Options:
OFF - Anti-Lock Braking Disabled.
SLW - Anti-Lock Braking Active with Slow Pulse Rate.
NOR - Anti-Lock Braking Active with Normal Pulse Rate.
FST - Anti-Lock Braking Active with Fast Pulse Rate.
Activating Anti-Lock Braking
1) Press the SEL key until the ABS menu is displayed. CH2 OFF will be displayed in
the Programming Window.
2) Press the + or - keys to choose the desired ABS CH2 setting. Choose from either
OFF, SLW, NOR, or FST as described above.
ABS CH2 setting range is OFF, SLW (Slow), NOR (Normal), and FST (Fast). The
default setting is OFF.
Due to the nature of the Anti-Lock Braking function, we suggest using a high-quality, strong throttle servo. If
your throttle servo is not strong enough, the Anti-Lock Braking function may not operate optimally.
