TQ Radio System Adjustments
In addition to the electronic throttle and steering trim controls,
your radio system features throttle neutral adjustment and servo
reversing switches.
Throttle Neutral Adjustment
The throttle neutral adjustment is located on the transmitter face and
controls the forward/brake travel of the throttle trigger. Change the
adjustment by pressing the button and sliding it to the desired position.
There are two settings available:
50/50: Allows equal travel for
both acceleration and braking.
70/30: Allows more throttle
travel (70%) and less brake
travel (30%).
50/50 is the required setting for Jato
with the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine.
Electronic Throttle Trim
The electronic throttle trim located on the face of the transmitter adjusts
the neutral (center) point of the throttle servo when the servo is at rest.
This control has been preset for you at the factory. If necessary, adjust the
control so the carburetor is at idle, and the brakes are not applied (the
model will roll freely). Do not use the throttle trim to raise or lower the
engine idle speed. Make the idle speed adjustment on the carburetor.
Electronic Steering Trim
The electronic steering trim located on the face of the transmitter adjusts
the neutral (center) point of the steering servos when the servos are at
rest. Adjust this control to make the model drive straight with no steering
input at the wheel.
Servo Reversing Switches
The servo reversing switches are located on the front of the transmitter,
next to the on/off switch. Moving a switch reverses the direction of the
corresponding servo. Each switch corresponds to a channel, as shown
below. For example, if you turn the steering wheel to the right and your
front wheels turn left, you would move the channel 1 switch to correct
the servo direction. It may be necessary to adjust the corresponding trim
control after
moving a switch
.
The default
position for the
servo reversing
switches is shown.
