SPECIAL FEATURES
After wiring up the speed-control, it is ready to operate. No setup is required. The speed-control
„learns“ the neutral, full-speed forward and full-speed reverse points while the car is running.
Please note: Before you plug in the drive battery, set the transmitter to neutral position and then
start the model in the forward direction.
SWITCH ON THE TRANSMITTER
CONNECT THE SPEED-CONTROL TO THE BATTERY
AND... GO!
SET-UP PROCEDURE
• If you have made a mistake so far, don’t worry: Unplug the battery for about 10 seconds and
start over again.
• After the run, first unplug the battery and then switch off the transmitter. When you start
again, first switch on the transmitter and then plug in the battery.
AUTOMATIC SETUP
Due to the LRP exclusive A.I. Automatic Technology, there is no need for a manual setup of the
speed-control by pushbuttons or potentiometers. All you need to do is simply plug in the speed-
control and you’re ready to go. The speed-control “learns” the neutral, full-speed forward and
full-speed reverse point of the radio system while the car is running. This way, the speed-control
has the optimized setup for every run - automaticly. Incorrect or unperfect setups are a thing of
the past with the LRP A.I.Runner/Runner-Plus (or A.I.Micro) Reverse speed-controls.
FAIL-SAFE SYSTEM
What is Fail Safe ?
Digital protection against radio interference, “The guardian angel“. The safety electronic can
detect reception of a “false” or incomplete radio signal, e.g due to a low transmitter battery or
environmental radio interference which reach the model, or if the model is out of the transmitter
range. For protection against damage, the speed-control switches to the neutral position, and
the model comes to a stop.
LRP’s tip: The model will remain in a standstill, even if you connect the drive battery to the
speed-control first and then switch on the transmitter! Provides perfect protection against mis-
takes commonly made by beginners.
REVERSE OPERATION
No reverse time limit!
The LRP A.I.Runner/Runner-Plus (or A.I.Micro) Reverse speed-controls have no reverse time
limit.
MULTI-PROTECTION SYSTEM , 3-way Protection
This unique monitoring software is the perfect protection for the LRP A.I.Runner/Runner-Plus (or
A.I.Micro) Reverse speed-controls against short-circuits (motor), overload and overheating. If
your speed-control is ever faced with overload, the motor function is switched off for protection,
although the steering function is maintained.
Wait a few minutes to allow the speed-control to cool down.
If the speed-control switches off frequently, either the motor used is too strong, the motor pinion
is too big or you are using full brake too often. You can improve this if you make additional cooling
slots in the body.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
SYMPTOM CAUSE REMEDY
Servo is working, no motor function. Speed-control plugged in incorrectly Plug speed-control in Ch 2
Overload protection activated Allow speed-control to cool down
Wiring problem Check wires and plugs
Motor defective Replace moto
Motor brushes jammed. Check whether brushes are moving
freely
Speed-control defective Send in product for repair
No servo and no motor function. Speed-control plugged in incorrectly Plug speed-control in with correct
polarity
Crystal defective Replace components one by one.
Receiver defective
Transmitter defective
Speed-control defective Send in product for repair
Motor runs in reverse when accelera-
ting forward on the transmitter. Throttle stick polarity at transmitter
changed while driving Repeat startup procedure
Motor connected incorrectly Connect motor correctly
Insufficient performance.
E.g. poor brake power, reverse power,
topspeed or acceleration.. Motor pinion or gear ratio too long. Use smaller motor pinion or shorter
gear ratio
Transmitter settings were changed
after startup. Repeat startup procedure
Motor worn out Maintain motor
Motor defective Replace motor
Speed-control defective. Send in product for repair
Speed-control overheats or switches
off frequently. Reduced cooling efficiency Cut cooling holes in body
Motor stronger than motorlimit or input
voltage higher too high Use only motors within motolimit and
use batteries according to the specifi-
cations of the speed-control
Motor pinion or gear ratio too big Use smaller motor pinion or shorter
gear ratio
Drive train or bearing problems. Check or replace components.
Model used too often without cool-
down periods Let speed-control cool down after
every run
Motor never stops, runs at constant
slow speed Transmitter settings were changed
after startup Repeat startup procedure
Speed-control defective Send in product for repair
Radio interference Motor suppressors not sufficient Solder capacitors to motor
Receiver or antenna too close to power
wires, motor, battery or speed-control.
Receiver aerial too short or coiled up See „Installation Tips“ and „Instal-
lation“
Receiver defective, too sensitive;
transmitter defective, transmitter
output power too low, servo problem Replace components one by one
Only use original manufacturers
crystals
Poor battery connection Check plugs and connecting wires
Transmitter batteries empty Replace / recharge transmitter batte-
ries at regular intervals
Transmitter antenna too short Pull out antenna to full length
