•  Steering can become sluggish once components get dirty or “take a set” after running. Inspect the 

rod ends of the turnbuckles to ensure they are properly aligned and not binding. You should be 

able to grab a turnbuckle with your fingers and rotate it easily.

•  Healthy gears are crucial to a properly functioning vehicle. If you hear your vehicle making very loud 

noises, you should immediately stop and check the gears for foreign debris. Even a small pebble 

can get lodged into the teeth of the pinion gear, which would practically destroy the spur gear in a 

very short period of time.

Problem / Symptom

Possible Cause

Possible Solution

ESC will not set to 

transmitter

Receiver and transmitter not bound

Try re-binding

Throttle Channel not set to Reverse

Unless using Futaba radio, set Th channel to 

Reverse

Batteries dead in car or transmitter

Replace batteries

Transmitter Trims and EPA’s are too far 

out of range for the ESC

Ensure throttle/brake trim is centered and 

adjust throttle and brake EPA’s to maximum

Transmitter is too close to vehicle

Hold transmitter farther away from vehicle

Car slowed down 

drastically during run

Battery voltage too low, LVC active

Charge or change batteries

ESC over-temp protection active

Turn off ESC and allow ESC and motor to cool 

before running again

ESC Over current protection active

Change operating conditions to ones that are 

not as hard on the electronics, ie move from 

grass to asphalt
Reduce pinion gear size on the motor to reduce 

load on the ESC

Car doesn’t accelerate Ensure the proper running mode is used

Change running mode based on battery you 

are using

Reverse not working

Reverse mode has been disabled in ESC

Follow setup instructions to run back on

ESC was improperly set to transmitter

Re-set to transmitter, ensure Th channel is set 

to Reverse for non Futaba transmitters

EPA on transmitter has been turned down 

for reverse

Adjust EPA’s to 100% and reset ESC to 

transmitter

Motor only goes in 

reverse or goes in 

reverse when I pull 

trigger to go forward

Throttle Channel not set to Reverse

Unless using Futaba radio, set Th channel to 

Reverse and reset ESC to transmitter

Motor connected to ESC improperly

Switch any two motor wires

EPA on transmitter has been turned down 

for reverse

Adjust EPA’s to 100% and reset ESC to 

transmitter

LED is flashing on ESC

1 flash per second

Low voltage cut-off protection active

2 flashers per second

ESC over-temp protection active

3 flashes per second

ESC over-current protection active

Any combination of above

Multiple errors have occurred. Turn ESC off, 

change battery and allow system to cool before 

using again. Ensure your ESC is in the correct 

running mode for the type of battery you are 

using
