 RADIO & VELINEON POWER SYSTEM

INSTALLING TRANSMITTER BATTERIES

Your TQi transmitter uses 4 AA batteries. The battery compartment 
is located in the base of the transmitter.

1. Remove the battery compartment door by pressing the tab and 

sliding the door open.

2. Install the batteries in the correct orientation as indicated in 

the battery compartment.

3. Reinstall the battery door and snap it closed.
4. Turn on the transmitter and check the status indicator for a solid 

green light.

If the status LED flashes red, the transmitter 
batteries may be weak, discharged or possibly 
installed incorrectly. Replace with new or 
freshly charged batteries. The power indicator 
light does not indicate the charge level of the 
battery pack installed in the model. Refer to the 
Troubleshooting section on page 27 for more 
information on the transmitter Status LED codes.

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

Use the included charger to charge the included battery pack.  The 
battery pack should be removed from the vehicle before charging. Do 
not leave the battery unattended while charging. 

It is normal for the 

battery to become slightly warm as it nears full-charge, but the battery 
should never become hot. If the battery becomes hot, disconnect it from the 
charger immediately.

1.  Plug the charger into the wall. The LED on the charger should  

glow green. 

2.  Connect the included battery pack to the charger output cord. The 

LED will glow red indicating the battery is charging.

3.  A completely discharged 3000 mAh battery will charge for 

approximately 8 hours with the included charger. The LED will turn 
green when the battery is fully charged. Disconnect the battery 
from the charger after charging.

Using Other Chargers

Another convenient option for charging the included battery 
is an AC peak-detecting charger that plugs directly into an AC 
wall outlet, such as the TRX EZ-Peak

 

(Part #2930)

. It contains 

special peak-detection circuitry that automatically shuts the 
charger off when the battery is fully charged.
For faster charging, the included battery may be charged at 
4 amps. The TRX EZ-Peak

 is a 4 amp charger and will charge 

the included  battery in only 45 minutes!

Caution

: Never use a 15-minute timed charger to recharge 

your model’s battery packs. Overcharging may result, causing 
damage to the battery packs.

Use the Right Batteries

Your transmitter uses 
AA batteries. Use new 
alkaline batteries, or 
rechargeable batteries 
such as NiMH (Nickel Metal 
Hydride) batteries in your 
transmitter. Make sure 
rechargeable batteries are 
fully charged according 
to the manufacturer’s 
instructions.

If you use rechargeable 
batteries in your 
transmitter, be aware
that when they begin 
to lose their charge, they 
lose power more quickly 
than regular alkaline 
batteries. 

Caution: Discontinue 
running your model at the 
first sign of weak batteries 
(flashing red light on the 
transmitter) to avoid losing 
control.

If the power indicator doesn’t 
light green, check the polarity 
of the batteries. Check 
rechargeable batteries for 
a full charge. If you see any 
other flashing signal from the 
LED, refer to the chart on page 
27 to identify the code.
