b) Checking and setting the driving function
If you pull the operating lever for the driving function (see Figure 1, Pos. 3) as far as it will go in the direction of the
handle, the model should accelerate (see Figure 13, Sketch A). If the lever is pushed forwards, the model should
brake or switch to reverse drive (see Figure 13, Sketch B).
Figure 13
If the drive of your model behaves exactly the opposite to the illustration shown in Figure 13, you can use the reverse
switch for the driving function (see Figure 12, Pos. 7) to switch the operating direction of the operating lever.
Important!
For a model with an internal combustion engine, adjust the carburettor and brake linkage rods so that the
throttle/brake servo is not mechanically limited. The trim setting for the driving function must be in the mid-
dle position.
For a model with an electronic speed controller, different positions of the operating lever for the driving function (for-
ward, stop, reverse) may have to be programmed in the speed controller. Further related information can be found in
the documents for the speed controller. If the speed controller is not programmable, set the trim so that the vehicle is
stationary when the operating lever for the driving function is in the middle position.
