INSTALLING TRANSMITTER BATTERIES
Your TQi transmitter uses 4 AA batteries. The battery compartment
is located in the base of the transmitter.
1. Remove the battery compartment door by pressing the tab
and sliding the door open.
2. Remove the battery
holder. Install the
batteries in the
battery holder.
Correct orientation
is indicated in the
battery holder. Make
sure the battery holder is
plugged into the transmitter.
3. Reinstall the battery holder.
4. Reinstall the battery door and snap it closed.
5. Turn on the transmitter and check the “ON” LED for a solid green
light.
Note
: Switching the transmitter on with your mobile device
installed will automatically launch the
Traxxas Link application.
If the status LED flashes red, the transmitter batteries may be weak,
discharged, or possibly installed incorrectly. Replace with new or
freshly charged batteries. The status LED does not indicate the
charge level of the battery pack installed in the model. If the Traxxas
Link application is installed and running, there is a battery level
icon (see image below) on the main menu bar that will give you an
indication of the charge level of the transmitter batteries.
Note
: The Docking Base will charge your mobile
device as long as the transmitter is turned on.
TQi Docking Base Battery Charging Jack
The Docking Base incorporates a standard
charging jack for use with optional Traxxas
rechargeable NiMH battery pack (part #3037)
and wall charger (part #6545) (each sold
separately).
Note
: The charger and charging
jack will not charge rechargeable AA batteries installed in the standard
4-cell AA battery holder supplied with the TQi.
Only use the charger
and charging jack with the Traxxas NiMH battery (part #3037).
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACKS
Your model requires two fully charged battery packs. Two (2)
Traxxas Power Cell NiHM batteries are supplied with your model.
A charger is not included with your model. Traxxas recommends
the EZ-Peak Plus charger, part #2933, for quick charging of the
included batteries. See Traxxas.com for more information.
Using Different Battery Configurations
The battery hold-
downs are capable of
accommodating either
side-by-side racing
style packs or the more
common stick packs. The
battery compartments
are configured for stick
packs from the factory.
The number on each
side of the hold down
indicates the battery
height in millimeters
that hold-down can accommodate. Note that one side is labeled
“25” and other side is labeled “23”. The 25mm side is for use with
2-4
Use the Right Batteries
Your transmitter uses AA
batteries. Use new alkaline
batteries (part #2914). Do not
use rechargeable AA batteries
to power the TQi transmitter,
as they will not provide
sufficient voltage for optimum
transmitter performance.
The Traxxas 5-cell
rechargeable battery pack
(part #3037)can be used in
place of 4 AA alkaline cells.
This battery pack has the
same voltage (6 volts) as four
alkaline cells.
Caution: Discontinue running
your model at the first sign of
weak batteries (flashing red
light on the transmitter) to
avoid losing control.
If the status LED doesn’t light
green, check the polarity
of the batteries. Check
rechargeable batteries for
a full charge. If you see any
other flashing signal from the
LED, refer to the chart on page
27 to identify the code.
“25” - Standard stick packs
“23” - Side-by-side packs
