Slipper Adjustments
The Mini-DT is equipped with a slipper device offering both
traction control and protection for the transmission. The
slipper is primarily used to help absorb sudden impacts
on the drive train due to landing big jumps or when using
more powerful aftermarket motors and/or battery packs.
Additionally, it can be used to smooth out the low of power
to the rear wheels and limit wheel spin when running on
extremely slick surfaces. Adjustment is made by turning
the 3mm adjustment nut clockwise (to the right) to reduce
the slip, or counterclockwise (to the left) to increase the
slip. When adjusted properly, you should be able to hold
the rear tires irmly and barely be able to push the spur
gear forward with your thumb. To track test, turn the Mini-
DT on and place it on the ground. As you push it
backwards allowing it to roll freely, punch the throttle.
The slipper should slip no more than an inch or two
as it accelerates. With the included motor and battery
pack it should slip just a little. Make sure you replace
the gear cover before running.

Resetting the ESC
The ESC comes preset and ready for use. If for some reason you should need to reset the ESC, use the following
instructions:
1. Turn on the transmitter and ESC. Press the setup button – the RED
and GREEN LEDs will come on.
2. Pull the throttle trigger all the way back (full speed) and press the setup
button once – only the GREEN LED will come on.
3. Push the trigger full forward (brake/reverse) and push the setup button
once – only the RED LED will come on.
4. Let the throttle trigger return to the neutral (center) position and press
the setup button once more to save the program and exit setup mode –
only the GREEN LED will be on.
Notes
:
A: If the receiver does not receive a signal from the Transmitter, the ESC will not enter program mode.
B: While in program mode, the motor will not run.
C: If the setup button is not pressed for 20 seconds while in program mode, the ESC will exit the program mode, and
the data will be restored to default settings.
