4. Pull the transmitter throttle
trigger to the full throttle
position. Hold it there until
the Function LED flashes
green three times.
Note:
The throttle servo will not move during programming even
though it is connected to the controller.
5. Release the transmitter
throttle trigger allowing
it to return to neutral. The
Function LED will turn
solid green, indicating that
the shifting servo is OK to shift and the programming has been
completed. The controller is now programmed and ready to go!
Note
: If the Function LED does not turn solid green in this step,
it may be necessary to readjust the throttle linkage so that the
throttle trim is as close to the center “0” setting as possible when the
carburetor is closed.
• If the transmitter throttle settings are changed, it will be necessary
to complete the programming sequence again.
• If the SET button is released before the Function LED flashes
green twice in step 3, the OptiDrive will return to the normal
operation mode.
• If you experience any problems during programming, turn the
receiver off, then on again, and repeat the programming steps.
For instructions on how to use the OptiDrive with aftermarket
radio systems, or to access advanced programming options, visit
Traxxas.com.
Large adjustments to the
throttle trim and/or throttle
linkage may require re-setting
the OptiDrive to maintain
proper shifting action.
For transmission durability,
the OptiDrive ESM limits
the model’s reverse speed
to about 70% of full throttle.
If settings are changed, and
you notice a decrease in
forward top speed, you could
have the OptiDrive system
reversed. Return the TQi to
default settings (
see page 14
)
and re-program the OptiDrive
Module. For programming
with aftermarket radio
systems, please see our
website.
