The battery holder comprises of two plastic angles and a
retainer (1) that is attached with two safety clips (2).
To insert the drive battery, pull out the safety clips first.
Then remove the retainer from the vehicle.
Insert the drive battery into the chassis battery holder.
Reinsert the retainer and reattach it with the safety clips
removed in the beginning.
e) Connecting the Drive Battery to the Speed Controller
First switch off the speed controller. The on/off switch is
at the bottom of the chassis, right next to the motor, see
figure on the right.
To switch it off, move the slider (1) away from the setup
button (2) („OFF“).
Then switch on the transmitter if you haven‘t done so yet
(see chapter 9. b) and c).
To prevent sudden start-up of the wheels and therefore uncontrolled starting of the model (e.g. if the trim-
ming for the drive is maladjusted), place the model vehicle on a suitable support (or starting box), so that the
wheels can turn freely in case of an error.
Do not reach into the drive. Do not hold the wheels.
Now connect the drive battery to the speed controller. Ensure correct polarity (red cable = plus/+, black cable =
minus/-). Do not apply any force when connecting the battery plug to the connection of the speed controller.
Make sure that the cables do not get into the drive of the vehicle or the steering mechanics. Use cable binders for
fastening if required.
