• ALWAYS turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver
in the vehicle. Always power off the receiver before turning your
transmitter off.
• ALWAYS operate your vehicle in a wide open area. Operating the
vehicle in a small space or indoors can cause overheating at low
speeds. Operating at low speed increases heat in the electronic
speed control (ESC). Overheating can damage the vehicle and
failure may result.

When you are fInIshed
• Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a flat surface
during use of the first battery charge.
Failing to do so can
greatly reduce motor peroformance and functional life.
• Prolong motor life by preventing overheating conditions.
Undue motor wear results from frequent turns, stops and
starts, pushing objects, driving in deep sand and tall grass,
and driving continuously up hill.
• Over-temperature protection is installed on the ESC to prevent
circuit damage, but cannot protect the motor from driving against
heavy resistance.
Motor care
1. Power off the Electronic Speed Control
(ESC).
2. Disconnect the battery.
4. Remove the battery from the vehicle.
3. Power off the transmitter.
5. Recharge the battery.
