Running multiple vehicle
If you have a vehicle of your and your friends with other vehicles that you will be racing with, it is very important that you
f rst check what frequency channel your vehicle is on and con f rm that none of your friends have the same frequency
as yours. If you do f nd that someone else is using the same frequency channel that you are, you must wait for them to
turn their transmitter and vehicle OFF or you may choose to change the frequency crystals in your transmitter and recei-
ver (so that you can run together at the same time without causing any radio interference). Additional frequency crystal
sets can be purchased separately and installed in a few quick seconds. To change frequency crystals simply remove
the black plastic crystal holder from the back of your transmitter by carefully pulling it straight out. Slide the crystal out
of the holder and install the new crystal labelled „Tx" in its place. Then carefully align the two pins that extend from the
transmitter, and gently press it into place. DO NOT force the crystal! The pins can easily be broken! Remove the crystal
from your receiver in the same careful manner using a pair of needle-nose pliers and install the new „Rx" crystal in its
place.
PLEASE NOTE: It is very important that the crystal labelled „Tx" is installed in the transmitter and the crystal marked
„Rx" is installed in the receiver.
OPERATING THE REMOTE CONTROL
•
Run your Flash 3.0 Brushless never with low transmitter or receiver batteries.
•
Never forget switch off the radio after running your Flash 3.0 Brushless, otherwise the batteries do not last long.
•
Turn on the transmitter f rst, then the vehicle.
•
After driving f rst turn off the vehicle, then the transmitter.
•
For optimal use f rst check the steering and throttle trim positions.
•
Before the f rst trip you should be sure all of these functions and settings have read and understood.
STEERING TRIM
The vehicle should go straight without turning the steering wheel. If not, press the Steering Trim knob above the steering
wheel in the direction needed for the vehicle to go straight.
THROTTLE/BRAKE TRIM
Here you do not need to adjust anything, because the neutral point is stored automatically during the ESC setting.
CHECKLIST BEFORE YOU START
•
Check all screws on permanent seat.
•
Check all the moving parts to work without binding.
•
Check the batteries in the remote control.
•
Check your frequency, so that a trouble-free operation is ensured.
LET THE FUN BEGIN
Note: Use only fully charged batteries! The ESC has an undervoltage identi f cation by measuring the battery voltage
when switching on and calculates thereby the number of cells of the battery and/or the cutof f voltage. With not fully char-
ged batteries this cannot function correctly and the batteries become discharged too low , which can lead to a permanent
damage.
Switch on the transmitter. Connect the batteries correctly to the ESC and switch it on (position „ON "). The ESC signals
its ready status by a sequence of beeps (
should f ash green, the throttle trigger of the transmitter did not stand on neutral when switching ON and the motor did
not start for safety reasons. If this happens, switch off and on the ESC again.
Always switch off the vehicle f rst (position „OFF"), then the transmitter. Disconnect the batteries from the ESC.
Consider please:
•
if you move the throttle trigger from forward on backwards, the vehicle brakes to a complete stop. In order to ac-
tivate the reverse gear , you must release the throttle trigger brie f y (neutral position) and then press it again on
backwards
•
The ESC switches OFF also when overheating. Switch of f the vehicle (ESC position „OFF ") then and let the ESC
cool down. Check the function of the ESC's fan (exchange when defective) and the smooth running of the drive train
of your Flash 3.0 Brushless.
