Standard operation:
• Turning the transmitter wheel to the left from center makes the wheels on the vehicle turn LEFT
• Turning the transmitter wheel to the right from center makes the wheels on the vehicle turn RIGHT
• Pulling the transmitter trigger back towards the handle will make the vehicle accelerate forward
• Pushing the transmitter trigger forward away from the handle will have the following affects depending
on the location of the trigger prior to pushing it forward
› From a stop at neutral: the vehicle will travel in reverse
› From pulled back: the vehicle will apply brakes to slow the speed
» A second push forward of the trigger will apply reverse throttle
»
WARNING: Causing the vehicle to make quick transitions from forward/reverse motion to
the opposite direction using the throttle control can cause damage to your vehicle and will
void the warranty
Using your transmitter for the first time:
1. Turn the transmitter ON and ensure the LED is lit SOLID indicating the batteries are supplying adequate
voltage for proper operation
2. Setting the throttle trim
a. If the wheels spin in a forward direction when the trigger is in the neutral position, turn down the
trim until the motor stops
b. If the wheels spin in a reverse direction when the trigger is in the neutral position, turn up the trim
until the motor stops
c. There will be a “dead band” area where the trim can be adjusted a slight amount in either direc-
tion and the wheels will not begin to move. It is ideal to have the trim set in the middle of this
“dead band”
3. Setting the steering trim
a. With your vehicle and transmitter turned on (and properly responding to transmitter inputs), set
the vehicle down on the ground and slowly accelerate in a direction directly away from you. If the
vehicle veers slightly either to the left or right, stop the vehicle and adjust the Steering Trim knob
in the opposite direction of the veer in small increments
b. Reset the vehicle and re-test; adjust the trim as needed until the vehicle travels in a straight line
while the transmitter wheel remains at center location (“hands-off”)
