Multi-Function Knob
The Multi-Function knob can be programmed
to control a variety of functions. From the
factory, the Multi-Function knob controls
steering sensitivity, also known as exponential
or “expo.” When the knob is turned counterclockwise all the way to
the left (default position), expo is off and steering sensitivity will be
linear (the most commonly used setting). Turning the knob clockwise
will “add expo” and decrease the steering sensitivity in the initial range
of steering wheel travel left or right from center. For more detail on
steering exponential, refer to page 15.
USING THE RADIO SYSTEM
The TQi Radio System has been pre-adjusted at the factory. The
adjustment should be checked before running the model, in case of
movement during shipping. Here’s how:
1. Turn the transmitter switch on. The status LED on the transmitter
should be solid green (not flashing).
2.
Elevate the model on a block or a stand so that all the tires are
off the ground.
Make sure your hands are clear of the moving parts
of the model.
3. Plug the battery packs in the model into the speed control.
4. Switch the speed control on. You will hear a short sequence of
tones as ALL the LEDs blink. The sequence will then repeat twice
more, then the YELLOW LED will remain illuminated.
Always
disconnect your batteries when the model is not in use.
5. Turn the steering wheel on the transmitter back and forth and
check for rapid operation of the steering servo. Also, check that the
steering mechanism is not loose or binding. If the steering operates
slowly, check for weak batteries.
6. When looking down at model, the
front wheels should be pointing
straight ahead. If the wheels are
turned slightly to the left or right,
slowly adjust the steering trim
control on the transmitter until
they are pointing straight ahead.
7. Gently operate the throttle trigger to ensure that you have forward
and reverse operation, and that the motor stops when the throttle
trigger is at neutral.
Warning
:
Do not apply full throttle in forward
or reverse while the model is elevated.
8.
Once adjustments are made, turn the model off first (using the
switch on the speed control), then turn off the transmitter.
Range-Testing the Radio System
Before each running session with your model, you should range-test
your radio system to ensure that it operates properly.
1. Turn on the radio system and check its operation as described in
the previous section.
2. Have a friend hold the model. Make sure hands and clothing are
clear of the wheels and other moving parts on the model.
3. Walk away from the model with the transmitter until you reach the
farthest distance you plan to operate the model.
4. Operate the controls on the transmitter once again to be sure that
the model responds correctly.
5. Do not attempt to operate the model if there is any problem with
the radio system or any external interference with your radio signal
at your location.
Higher Speeds Require Greater Distance
The faster you drive your model, the more quickly it will near the limit
of radio range. At 60mph, a model can cover 88 feet every second! It’s
a thrill, but use caution to keep your model in range. If you want to see
your model achieve its maximum speed, it is best to position yourself
in the middle of the truck’s running area, not the far end, so you drive
the truck towards and past your position. In addition to maximizing
the radio’s range, this technique will keep your model closer to you,
making it easier to see and control.
No matter how fast or far you
drive your model, always leave adequate space between you, the
model, and others. Never drive directly toward yourself or others.
TQi Binding Instructions
For proper operation, the transmitter and receiver must be
electronically ‘bound.’
This has been done for you at the factory.
Should you ever need to re-bind the system or bind to an additional
transmitter or receiver, follow these instructions. Note: the receiver
must be connected to a 4.8-6.0v (nominal) power source for binding
and the transmitter and receiver must be within 5 feet of each other.
1. Press and hold the transmitter’s SET button as you switch the
transmitter on. The transmitter’s LED will flash red slowly.
Release the SET button.
2. Press and hold the receiver’s LINK button as you switch on
the speed control by pressing the EZ-Set button. Release the
LINK button.
Using Reverse: While driving,
push the throttle trigger
forward to apply brakes.
Once stopped, return the
throttle trigger to neutral.
Push the throttle trigger
forward again to engage
proportional reverse.

Automatic Failsafe
The TQi transmitter and
receiver are equipped with
an automatic failsafe system
that does not require user
programming. In the event
of signal loss or interference,
the throttle will return to
neutral and the steering will
hold its last commanded
position. If failsafe activates
while you are operating
your model, determine the
reason for signal loss and
resolve the problem before
operating your model again.
