• 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.
OPERATION
WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED
1. Power off the Electronic
Speed Control (ESC).
2. Disconnect the battery.
3. Power off the transmitter.
• 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 performance and functional life.
• Prolong motor life by preventing overheating conditions.
Undue motor wear results from frequent turns, stops and
starts, pushing objects, driving in water 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.
