THE TRAXXAS TQ 2.4GHz RADIO SYSTEM

6

Remember, always turn 
the transmitter on first and 
off last to avoid damage to 
your model. 

When rechargeable batteries 
begin to lose their charge, 
they will fade much faster 
than alkaline dry cells. Stop 
immediately at the first sign 
of weak batteries. Never turn 
the transmitter off when the 
battery pack is plugged in. 
The model could run out of 
control.

RADIO SYSTEM RULES 

• Always turn your transmitter on first and off last. This procedure will 

help to prevent your model from receiving stray signals from another 
transmitter, or other source, and running out of control. Your model 
has electronic failsafes to prevent this type of malfunction, but the 
first, best defense against a runaway model is to always turn the 
transmitter on first and off last.

• Always turn on the transmitter before plugging in the battery.
• Always use new or freshly charged batteries for the radio system.  

Weak batteries will limit the radio signal between the receiver and  
the transmitter.

 Loss of the radio signal can cause you to lose control 

of your model.

• In order for the transmitter and receiver to bind to one another, 

the receiver in the model must be turned on within 20 seconds 
of turning on the transmitter. The transmitter LED will flash fast 
red, indicating a failure to link. If you miss it, simply turn off the 
transmitter and start over.

RADIO SYSTEM BASIC ADJUSTMENTS

Steering Trim

The steering trim knob located on the face of the 
transmitter adjusts the neutral (center) point of the steering 
channel. If your model pulls to the right or left when the 

steering wheel is centered, turn the knob until the model drives 
straight when the steering wheel is centered.

Channel Reversing
The TQ 2.4GHz transmitter has been programmed with the correct servo 
direction settings for your model and should not require adjustment.

 

These instructions are for reference and troubleshooting only.

Reversing a channel reverses the direction of the corresponding servo. 
For example, if you turn the steering wheel to the right and the model 
turns left, Channel 1 would need to be reversed to correct the servo 
direction. Use the following procedures to reverse the steering and 
throttle channels, if necessary. 

Servo reversing should only be required 

if you accidentally reset the direction of a channel. Do not reverse the 
steering or throttle channels unless necessary.

Steering reversing procedure:

1.   Press and hold the SET button on the transmitter for two seconds. 

The status LED will flash green.

2.   Turn and hold the steering wheel to the full left or full right 

position (it does not matter which position you choose).

3.   While holding the steering wheel in position, press the SET button 

to reverse the channel. 

4.   The channel is now reversed. Confirm correct servo operation 

before running your model.

Throttle reversing procedure:
Note

: Throttle reversing is often times unnecessary on electric models, 

as issues with the throttle can usually be solved by reprogramming the 
speed control and/or verifying that the motor is wired correctly. Before 
attempting to reverse the throttle channel using the procedure below, 
you should first recalibrate the speed control. Refer to “

XL-2.5 Setup 

Programming

” on page 16.

1.   Press and hold the SET button on the transmitter for two seconds. 

The status LED will flash green.

2.   Move and hold the throttle trigger to the full forward or full brake 

position (it does not matter which position you choose).

3.   While holding the throttle trigger in position, press the SET button 

to reverse the channel. 

4.   The channel is now reversed. Recalibrate the speed control and 

then confirm correct servo operation before running your model.

Make certain the model’s 
receiver antenna is properly 
installed before operating 
your model. See “Installing 
the Receiver Antenna.” 

Failure to properly install the 
receiver antenna will result in 
greatly reduced radio range 
and potential loss of control.

Always turn your

transmitter on first.

Turn on the model.
