g) Connecting the drive battery to the controller/receiver unit
First, switch off the controller/receiver unit (switch position "OFF"), see section 9. e).
Then, if you have not already done so, start up the transmitter (see section 9. c) and d). Check that the LED (5) on
the transmitter lights up.
If the LED (5) flashes, the batteries in the transmitter are empty and must be replaced.
To prevent the wheels from suddenly starting to turn and therefore prevent the model from starting in an
uncontrolled manner (e.g. if the trim for the drive is incorrectly set), place the model vehicle on a suitable
surface (or a starting box) so that the wheels can turn freely in case there is a fault.
Do not reach into the drive. Do not hold the wheels.
Important!
Before connecting a drive battery, check the setting of the "LiPo/NIMH" jumper, see section 9. b).
Now connect the drive battery to the controller/receiver unit. Plug and socket protected against polarity reversal by
the connector type. If you are using your own drive battery, ensure that it is connected with the correct polarity (red
cable = plus/+, black cable = minus/-). Do not use force when connect the battery plug to the controller/receiver unit
connection.
Make sure that the cable cannot get into the vehicle's drive or into the steering mechanism. If necessary, use cable
ties to fasten the cables.
