INSTRUCTION MANUAL 

NOVALINK PARAMETER DEFINITIONS 

Settings Tab 

Dig Power 

 

Dig Power is the amount of braking or dig power being applied to lock 
either the front or rear motor.  

This setting is measured as a percentage of full brakes. Preset 
selections are available in the drop down menu. Custom values can 
entered in increments of 0.1%*.

 

Increasing the Dig Power applies more braking power to the motor 
that the Dig function is telling to lock. By locking either the front of 
rear motor, the vehicle is able to perform a “Dig” maneuver than can 
allow you to navigate around obstacles or perform a tighter turning 
radius by dragging the rear wheels.  

*You must select “Enter” for the software to recognize the custom value

 

Drag/Hill Brake 

Drag/Hill Brake is the amount of brake applied while the transmitter 
is at neutral. It is also known as “coast brakes.” 

This setting is measured as a percentage of full brakes. Preset 
selections are available in the drop down menu. Custom values can 
entered in increments of 0.1%*.

 

Increasing the Drag/Hill Brake setting makes the motor slow the 
vehicle down more. You can adjust this setting to give the vehicle the 
desired amount of creep down the incline when the transmitter’s 
trigger is released.  

Drag/Hill Brake is featured in blue in the chart below. You can 
graphically control the Drag/Hill Brake value by grabbing the bold 
horizontal line in the blue section with your cursor and dragging it up 
or down. This will also adjust the Minimum Brake value if the 
Independent Drag Brake feature is set to “Off”. 

*You must select “Enter” for the software to recognize the custom value. 

 

Dead Band 

Dead Band is the trigger space between Minimum Brake and 

Minimum Drive, with neutral in the middle. 

 

This setting is measured as a percentage of full throttle. Ten preset 
selections are available in the drop down menu. Custom values can 

be entered in increments of 0.1%* 

 

Raising the Dead Band setting increases the amount of free play, or 
distance you must move your transmitters trigger before forward 
drive or braking activates. This setting is useful if your transmitters 

trigger does not center well or the trigger pot is worn.
