troubleshooting guide
Note: Low voltage cutoff (LVC) will stop the vehicle when the battery gets low. The ESC will reset after
approximately ten (10) seconds. The vehicle can then be driven slowly back to the driver for battery recharge.
Note: When motor disconnected or damaged, beep may not be heard.
