1. 

Power on the transmitter.

3. 

Perform a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle 
with the vehicle’s wheels off the ground.

Start driving slowly, and, if the vehicle does not go straight, 
adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter.

Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a fl at 

surface during use of the fi rst battery charge. Properly seating the motor 
brushes will increase the life and performance of the motor.

BINDING

Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID 
(Globally Unique Identifi er) code of a single specifi c transmitter. The 
STX2

®

 transmitter and SPMSRX200 receiver are bound at the factory. If 

you need to rebind, follow the instructions below.

1. 

With the vehicle on a fl at, level surface, insert the Bind Plug in the 
BIND port on the receiver.

2. 

Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC.

3. 

Power on the ESC. The red LED fl ashes, indicating the receiver is 
in bind mode.

4. 

Center the ST TRIM and TH TRIM dials on the transmitter.

5. 

Turn the steering wheel to Full Right. Power the transmitter on 
while holding the steering wheel to the Right.

6. 

Release the steering wheel when the receiver LED stops fl ashing.

7. 

Remove the Bind Plug, then power off the receiver to save the 
settings.

8. 

Power off the transmitter.

9. 

Remove the bind plug and store it in a convenient place.

10. 

You must rebind when:

•  Different failsafe positions are desired e.g., when throttle or 

steering reversing has been changed.

•  Binding the receiver to a different transmitter.

CHANGING THE THROTTLE  LIMIT

Beginner Mode

•  Best for learning the basic functions of left, right, stop, brake and 

reverse

•  For use in smaller areas
•  Longest battery life 

Best Overall Performance (Default)

Throttle Limiting Switch: 75%

•  Great top speed and acceleration
•  Easier to accelerate in desired direction, especially on loose surfaces 

when compared to Maximum Speed setup

•  Run time is greatly increased over Maximum Speed setup with 

minimal impact to top speed

Maximum Speed
