1. Open the panel on the bottom of the transmitter.
2. Obey the battery plus (+) and minus (-) diagram in the
transmitter to install 4 AA batteries.
3. Close the panel.
We recommend using only alkaline AA batteries in the
transmitter.
CAUTION:
If using rechargeable batteries, charge only
rechargeable batteries. Charging non-rechargeable
batteries may cause the batteries to burst, resulting in injury
to persons and/or damage to property.
• Never install damaged batteries.
• Never install batteries of mixed types or of different ages in
the transmitter.
• Always remove exhausted batteries.
• Always remove batteries before storing the transmitter.
• Low battery power can result in loss of control of the RC
vehicle.
GETTING STARTED
1. Install the transmitter batteries
2. Power ON the transmitter.
3. Connect the vehicle battery, or batteries, to the ESC
4. Do a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle with the
vehicle’s wheels off the ground.
5. Start driving slowly, if the vehicle does not go straight,
adjust the steering trim buttons on the transmitter.
NOTICE:
The ESC will be supplied with 2 EC5
connectors for 2 2S batteries installation. For a single
4 cell battery, a DYNC0166 is installed into 1 of the
ESC's EC5 connectors.
• ALWAYS turn on your transmitter before you turn on the
receiver in the vehicle. Always power off the receiver before
turning your transmitter off.
• ALWAYS operate your vehicle in a wide open area. Operating
the vehicle in a small space or indoors can cause overheating
at low speeds. Operating at low speed increases heat in the
electronic speed control (ESC). Overheating can damage the
vehicle and failure may result.
CAUTION:
If you stray very far from the stock gearing, you
risk overheating the electronic components (motor, ESC and
batteries) when play or bash style driving in heavy grass or muddy
conditions. So for play or bash style running with a lot of stop and
go style of driving, use the factory installed smaller pinion gear.
• If high speed runs are what you are after, use the supplied/
optional larger pinion gear. With this gearing, only run on hard
smooth surfaces and avoid abrupt starts and stops. A cool-
down period between every couple of passes is recommended
as well in order to keep the electronic components operating
temperatures in check.
CAUTION:
When play or bash style driving in heavy
load conditions (such as in thick heavy grass or muddy
conditions) or prefer a driving style that encounters a lot of stop
and go throttle inputs, DO NOT use the larger optional pinion
gear as it with overheat and shorten the life of the electronics.
