GLOSSARY and INDEX
3CH:
Channel 3 position. See channel 3 assignment. .........................................................................................................40
3-channel:
transmitter that can send commands to 3 separate channels for model operation.
ABP:
Adjustment in ABS. Amount of brake return, how far the braking response is decreased during the pulses. 0 = no
return, no ABS action; 100% = completely returned to neutral, no braking at all during pulses. See ABS.......................24
ABS:
Anti-lock braking system. Simulates full size automobile anti-lock brakes by pulsating the brakes. Length of pulse
cycles, amount of brake return (easing off brake), ratio of brake return to full brake on, delay before ABS takes effect, and
trigger position where ABS takes effect can all be adjusted................................................................................................24
ABSD:
ABS delay. See ABS. ..............................................................................................................................................24
ACCB:
Acceleration, braking. See Throttle Acceleration...................................................................................................26
ACCF:
Acceleration, forward. See Throttle Acceleration. .................................................................................................26
Acceleration:
See Throttle Acceleration .............................................................................................................................26
ACT:
Activated. Used in various functions.

Adjustable Throttle Limiter:
See ATL..............................................................................................................................37
Adjuster:
Electronic calibration to compensate for minor wear on the radio. ...................................................................45
Alarm Buzzer:
See BUZZ-TONE.......................................................................................................................................12
ALRM:
Total run time prior to desired alarm. See Timer...................................................................................................30
Application, Export and Reconstruction
..........................................................................................................................46
AT&SW:
Mode choice in Auto-start. Auto-start is activated by throttle trigger or switch. Switch can be assigned in FUNC-
SW and used to turn off the Auto-start feature without having to gun the throttle to do so. See AT-START....................28
ATL:
Adjustable Throttle Limiter. Feature that adjusts the amount of travel available to the braking side only of the
throttle/braking trigger or servo.
Mechanical:
stopper that blocks the brake trigger from moving as far away from neutral ..................................50
Electronic:
end point adjustment which shortens the total travel to the brake side of the servo ..........................37
ATS:
Auto-start Status. Whether auto-start is ‘armed’ and ready for use or waiting to be ‘armed.’ See Auto-Start.........28
AT-START/Engine cut:
Auto-start function only allows the throttle servo to go to a certain preset point when starting a
race. This keeps it from accelerating too hard and spinning or torquing, wasting power. Engine cut shuts engine off with
push of a switch by taking the throttle servo to a preset location which closes the carburetor. (Engine cut is not available
on models using a single servo to operate throttle and brakes together.) ............................................................................28
ATV:
Adjustable Travel Volume. See EPA..........................................................................................................................18
Auto-Start:
see AT-START .................................................................................................................................................28
Backlash:
Term describing the amount of play between gears, or gear mesh. If too loose, the gear can slip, or strip the
teeth. Too tight, and excessive wear is caused.
Backlight:
Display screen can be lit up, making it easier to read in indoor and other conditions. Backlighting adjustments:
contrast, constant on or on with keystroke, length on per keystroke and when lit. See System. ........................................13
Ball Bearing Servos:
Servo’s output shaft is supported with ball bearings for increased performance and accuracy.
Ball Link:
Connection using a ball and a socket that rotates on the ball. Used to connect the servo to a control surface or lever.
BALN:
balance. In brake mix, decreases the amount of brake command to either front or rear without adjusting total brake
mix, etc. See Brake Mix .......................................................................................................................................................42
