9.4: Using the two-sided adhesive patches, attach the ESC and it’s
On/Off switch to the Receiver Case. From bag 23, get the receiver
and attach it on the Receiver Case next to the ESC as shown. Then
Connect the wires from the Motor to the ESC, ensuring each wire
goes to its corresponding color! Attach the Wires from the Servo
and ESC to the receiver as shown, and properly secure wires with
zip ties provided. Thread the Antenna from the receiver through the Antenna Mount. For this model
with the 2,4GHz receiver, the signal range will be good enough for most even without using the
antenna tube. Not using the antenna tube will also mean the car body does not require a hole drilled
in it, which results in a sleeker look. If you want the additional range, feel free to use the antenna
tube, and drill a hole in the chassis where required; take care to measure accurately where the
antenna will go, so you don’t need to make several redundant holes! Making a hole in the body
without specialist tools can be easily achieved by puncturing it with a sharp knife, then rotating the
knife to create a circular hole of a suitable size.
9.5: Connect the Servo to the receiver in Ch1 and the ESC in Ch2, and the fan cable in the VCC slot.
