Note 1 - Control mode instructions
In case the RC transmitter is powered off, the control mode of SCOUT 2.0 is defaulted to
command control mode, which means the chassis can be directly controlled via command.
However, even though the chassis is in command control mode, the control mode in the
command needs to be set to 0x01 for successfully executing the speed command. Once the RC
transmitter is switched on again, it has the highest authority level to shield the command control
and switch over the control mode.
