when the red LED
blinks TWICE,

The LED will turn solid GREEN,

indicating the programming is
complete.

Profile Programming

The speed control is factory set to Profile #1 (forward with 25%
reverse). To disable the reverse (Profile #3), or to allow full
reverse (Profile #2), follow these steps. The speed control should
be connected to the receiver and the transmitter adjusted as
described on page 16.

100% forward, 25% reverse.

Profile #2: 

100% forward, 100% reverse.

Using an Aftermarket
Transmitter.

The following instructions
are provided as reference
only for those who are using
an aftermarket transmitter in
place of their factory TQ.

1. Set the High ATV or 

EPA to the maximum
setting. This is the 
amount of servo throw 
at full throttle.

2. Set the Low ATV, 

EPA, or ATL to the
maximum setting. This 
is the amount of servo
throw at full reverse.

3. Set the Exponential to 

the zero setting. This
adjusts the throttle
channel linearity. 

4. Set the Throttle Channel

Trim to the middle
setting. This adjusts the
neutral position and
increases or decreases the
amount of coast braking.

5. Set the Throttle Channel

Reversing Switch to either
position. Do not change
the switch position after
programming.

6. Set the Trigger Throw

Adjustment to 70%
throttle and 30% 
brake throw.
