OTHER REQUIRED EQUIPMENT

 

To operate the Nitro Sport, you will need these additional items. All of 
these items should be available from your hobby shop.  

1.

  12 “AA” size batteries for your transmitter (8) and receiver (4)

2.

 Small Phillips head and flat screwdrivers (for adjustments)

3.

 After-run oil (to protect the engine from corrosion)

THE TQ RADIO SYSTEM  

The Nitro Sport Model 4510 is equipped with the 2-channel TQ radio 
system. The following radio system terms will be used throughout 
the rest of these operating instructions.

Channel

 - The 27 MHz frequency band is divided into 6 channels 

so that up to six models can be operated simultaneously. Each 
channel is referred to by its flag color and channel number, as 
shown below.

Clearing your frequency

 - A routine, verbal check to make sure  

nobody else in your area is operating on the same channel. Always 
clear your frequency by calling out your channel number before 
operating your model. Wait or move to another area if your 
channel is already being used.

 Crystal (X-tal)

 - The plug-in device that determines on which 

channel the radio system will operate. For each channel, there are 
two crystals, one for the receiver and one for the transmitter. Of 
those two crystals, the one marked “RX” with the lower number 
(.455 MHz lower) must be inserted into the receiver. 

Frequency band

 - The radio frequency used by the transmitter to 

send signals to your Nitro Sport. All Traxxas RTR models operate 
on a 27 MHz frequency band.

mah

 – Abbreviation for milliamp hour. Measure of the capacity of 

the battery pack. The higher the number, the longer the battery 
will last between recharges.

Neutral position

 - The standing position that the servos seek when 

the transmitter controls are at the neutral setting.

NiCad

 - Abbreviation for nickel-cadmium. The original rechargeable 

hobby pack, NiCad batteries have very high current handling, high 
capacity, and can last up to 1000 charging cycles. Good charging 
procedures are required to reduce the possibility of developing a 
“memory” effect and shortened run times.

NiMH

 - Abbreviation for nickel-metal hydride.  Rechargeable NiMH 

batteries offer high current handling, and much greater resistance  
to the “memory” effect. NiMH batteries generally allow higher  
capacity than NiCad batteries. They can last up to 500 charge  
cycles. A peak charger designed for NiMH batteries is required  
for optimal performance.

Receiver

 - The radio unit inside your Nitro Sport that receives signals 

from the transmitter and relays them to the servos.

Servos

 - Small motor units in your Nitro Sport that operate the 

throttle and steering mechanisms. 

Two-channel radio system

 - The TQ radio system, consisting of  

the receiver, the transmitter, and the servos. The system uses  
two channels: one to operate the throttle and one to operate  
the steering.

Transmitter 

- The hand-held radio unit that sends throttle and 

steering instructions to your Nitro Sport.

Trim 

- The fine-tuning adjustment of the neutral position of the 

servos, made by turning the throttle and steering trim knobs on 
the face of the transmitter.

INSTALLING TRANSMITTER BATTERIES

Install 8 AA batteries into the bottom of the 
transmitter as shown in the drawing.
