TQ 2.4GHz RADIO AND VELINEON POWER SYSTEM

2.   Press and hold the receiver’s LINK button as you switch on the 

speed control by pressing the EZ-Set button. 

3.   When the transmitter and receiver’s LEDs turn solid green, the 

system is bound and ready for use. Confirm that the steering and 
throttle operate properly before driving your model.

Steering Sensitivity (Exponential)

The Multi-Function knob on the TQ2.4GHz transmitter has 
been programmed to control Steering Sensitivity (also known 
as exponential). The standard setting for Steering Sensitivity is 
“normal (zero exponential),” with the dial full left in its range of 
travel. This setting provides linear servo response: the steering 
servo’s movement will correspond exactly with the input from 
the transmitter’s steering wheel. Turning the knob clockwise from 
center will result in “negative exponential” and decrease steering 
sensitivity by making the servo less responsive near neutral, with 
increasing sensitivity as the servo nears the limits of its travel range. 
The farther you turn the knob, the more pronounced the change 
in steering servo movement will be. The term “exponential” comes 
from this effect; the servo’s travel changes exponentially relative 
to the input from the steering wheel. The exponential effect is 
indicated as a percentage—the greater the percentage, the greater 
the effect. The illustrations below show how this works. 

Normal Steering Sensitivity (0% exponential)

In this illustration, the steering servo’s travel (and with it, the steering 
motion of the model’s front wheels) corresponds precisely with the 
steering wheel. The ranges are exaggerated for illustrative purposes.

Decreased Steering Sensitivity (Negative Exponential)

By turning the Multi-Function knob clockwise, the steering sensitivity 
of the model will be decreased. Note that a relatively large amount 
of steering wheel travel results in a smaller amount of servo travel. 
The farther you turn the knob, the more pronounced the effect 

becomes. Decreased steering sensitivity may be helpful when driving 
on low-traction surfaces, when driving at high speed, or on tracks 
that favor sweeping turns where gentle steering inputs are required.
The ranges are exaggerated for illustrative purposes.

Experiment! Try varying degrees of exponential. It’s easy to go back 
to “zero” if you don’t like the effect. There’s no wrong way to adjust 
exponential. Any setting that makes you more comfortable with 
your car’s handling is the “right setting.” 

SETTING UP THE ANTENNA

The receiver antenna has been set up 
and installed from the factory. The 
antenna is secured by a 3x4mm set 
screw. To remove the antenna tube, 
simply remove the set screw with the 
included 1.5mm wrench. 

When reinstalling the antenna, first 
slide the antenna wire into bottom 
of antenna tube until white tip of 
antenna is at top of tube under the 
black cap. Next insert the antenna 
tube into the mount while making 
sure that antenna wire is in slot in the 
antenna mount, then install the set 
screw next to the antenna tube. Use the supplied 1.5mm wrench to 
tighten the screw just until the antenna tube is securely in place. Do 
not over tighten. 

Do not bend or kink the antenna wire! See the side 

bar for more information. Do not shorten the antenna tube.

To prevent loss of radio 
range do not kink or cut the 
black wire, do not bend or 
cut the metal tip, and do not 
bend or cut the white wire at 
the end of the metal tip.
