V. QUICK TIPS
1. The best jumps are the ones where the rear wheels hit
the ground first. It’s important to give your Fury FTX
TM
vehicle just enough power as it leaves the ramp. Too
much power and your nose will rise abruptly, too little
and you’ll land on the front wheels. When you do land,
make sure all four wheels are on the ground before you
accelerate. If you don’t you may cause a wheelie, which
may look really cool, but you’ll lose time.
2. The Fury FTX
TM
was meant to fly high and land soft but
just because you can doesn’t mean you should – espe-
cially if you’re in a race. Remember, the more time your
vehicle spends in the air, the less time you’ll have to
accelerate. So stay low to win big!
3. Radio interference can affect your vehicle’s perfor-
mance. Interference can be caused by other R/C vehicles
running on the same frequency, electrical wires, large
buildings, CB radios or other wireless gear. Try to stay
away from these!
4. Point your transmitter antenna up - not down toward
your vehicle. If your vehicle gets too far away, it won’t
work properly.
5. Don’t drive your vehicle through water or snow. If your
vehicle does get wet, wipe it with a towel and allow it to
dry completely.
6. Don’t store your vehicle near heat or in direct sunlight.
Always turn switches OFF and remove all batteries for
storage.
