RADIO & BRUSHLESS POWER SYSTEM
Resistance
- In an electrical sense, resistance is a measure of how
an object resists or obstructs the flow of current through it. When
flow is constricted, energy is converted to heat and is lost. The
power system is optimized to reduce electrical resistance and the
resulting power-robbing heat.
Rotor
- The rotor is the main shaft of the brushless motor. In a
brushless motor, the magnets are mounted to the rotor, and the
electromagnetic windings are built into the motor housing.
Sensored
- Sensored refers to a type of brushless motor that
uses an internal sensor in the motor to communicate rotor
position information back to the electronic speed control. The
VXL-6s Marine electronic speed control is designed for use with
sensorless motors.
Sensorless
- Sensorless refers to a brushless motor that uses
advanced instructions from an electronic speed control to provide
smooth operation. Additional motor sensors and wiring are not
required. The VXL-6s Marine electronic speed control is optimized
for smooth sensorless control.
Servo
- Small motor unit in your model that operates the steering
mechanism.
Solder Tabs
- Accessible, external contacts on the motor that allows
for easy wire replacement.
Transmitter
- The hand-held radio unit that sends throttle and
steering instructions to your model.
Trim
- The fine-tuning adjustment of the neutral position of the
servos, made by adjusting the throttle and steering trim knobs on
the face of the transmitter. Note: The Multi-Function knob must
be programmed to serve as a throttle trim adjustment.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
- Temperature sensing electronics
used in the VXL-6s Marine electronic speed control detect
overloading and overheating of the transistor circuitry. If
excessive temperature is detected, the unit automatically shuts
down to prevent damage to the electronics.
2-channel radio system
- The TQi 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.
Voltage
- Voltage is a measure of the electrical potential difference
between two points, such as between the positive battery
terminal and ground. Using the analogy of the garden hose,
while current is the quantity of water flow in the hose, voltage
corresponds to the pressure that is forcing the water through
the hose.
IMPORTANT RADIO SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS
• Do not kink the receiver’s antenna wire. Kinks in the antenna wire
will reduce range.
• DO NOT CUT any part of the receiver’s antenna wire. Cutting the
antenna will reduce range.
• Extend the antenna wire in the model as far as possible for
maximum range. It is not necessary to extend the antenna wire out
of the body, but wrapping or coiling the antenna wire should be
avoided.
• Do not allow the antenna wire to extend outside the body without
the protection of an antenna tube, or the antenna wire may get
cut or damaged, reducing range. It is recommended to keep the
wire inside the body (in the antenna tube) to prevent the chance
of damage.
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.
