2.Model Conrmation
Conrm the model which will be used.
3.Checking Movements
With the model's wheels lifted off the ground, operate transmitter to check for proper
movement. While driving, use steering and throttle trims to make ne adjustments. Drive in a
gure 8 pattern to check steering balance.
This transmitter uses the DSSS method of communication on the 2.4GHz band for 2.4GHz
ASF Mini-Z and dNano only.
You can not use this with other types of systems.
4.Switching O󰀨
After a driving session, switch off the receiver, followed by the transmitter. Remove the
battery pack from the model.
After switching o󰀨, wait at least 5 seconds before switching on again to ensure proper operation.

Trim

The sub trim is a convenient feature but it could also complicate the setting process if used incorrectly. Use the sub trim in the
correct manner while also referring to the sub trim operation instructions on p.19 and p.24.
[Purpose of the Trim]
When a servo is to be mounted onto a model, it is usually connected to
the receiver temporarily to enable the transmitter to check its neutral
position before it is installed. However, upon running the model it is often
the case that it does not run in a straight line and the steering servo's
neutral position has to be readjusted. This adjustment function is known
as the “trim,” but trim adjustment is not only done at the beginning,
but it also must be done during model operation to account for factors
such as tire wear and chassis warp. However, using the normal trim to
make these intermediary adjustments could cause other problems. In
the case of the steering trim, it could lead to di󰀨erent turning radii for
the left and right wheels. For throttle trims on glow engine cars, the point
of maximum braking, the full open position of the carburetor, etc. would
be shifted. For this reason, the normal trims are designated as “center
trims” that only adjust the neutral position, while a new function called
sub trim is used in conjunction to enable the most optimal settings.
[Purpose of the Sub Trim]
The effect of the sub trim is illustrated in the image on the right.
Adjusting the sub trim also moves the left/right angle range. In contrast,
the center trim moves the neutral position without changing the angle
range position. However, trying to compensate the neutral position while
making large sub trim adjustments may throw o󰀨 the model's left/right
balance.
[Actual Setting Sequence]
When installing R/C equipment, the servo's neutral position is set
first, then final adjustments would be made with the sub trim after
installation. However, if the sub trim setting value is high, adjust the
neutral position again.
Test run to confirm neutral position. Adjustments during this time
should also be made with the sub trim. After neutral position is xed,
adjust steering balance (p.21) so that the left and right wheels have
the same turning radius and use steering travel (p.18) to adjust overall
steering angle.
During the course of practice or racing, use the center trim to correct
slight changes to the neutral position. If the setting value becomes
high, correct in conjunction with the sub trim so that the center trim
value is zero.
Use the sub trim to adjust settings prior to driving instead of the center trim.
P
Install R/C equipment when the sub trim setting value becomes low.
P
If the neutral position becomes slightly o󰀨 during driving, use center trim to correct.

Model Copy(MDL-Copy) Model Reset(MDL-Reset)
Copies the current model memory to a different model
memory. Return the current model memory to default setting values.
After reset is nished, [COMPLETE] will ash on the screen before
returning to the menu.

Deleted data cannot be recovered. Be careful to avoid undesired
resets.
The contents of the model memory that is being copied to will be
overwritten. Overwritten data cannot be recovered, so be careful
to avoid undesired memory overwrites.
Example
When changing settings on the same car to match driving
conditions, it is convenient to copy the original memory
before modifying it. This function also allows you to try out
new settings while keeping your original one.
Select the model memory to copy to, then hold the ENTER
key to copy.(Basic Operationp.13)
Select [YES] (hold ENTER key) to reset. Select [NO] to
cancel and return to the menu. (BasicOperationp.13)
When selecting the model memory to copy to, that model
memory's name will be displayed.

Steering Travel(ST-Travel)
Since the Balance setting value is a ratio of the Travel setting
value, if the latter is modified the actual movement value and
the displayed graphic will also change.(the Travel value will not
change).

Steering Balance(ST-Balance)
The overall number of intervals does not change, so a change in
trim rate will result in a change in the range in which the trim can
be used to make corrections.
P
Although the amount of movement of one interval can be adjusted,
the lower the number the smaller the amount of movement.
P
If the trim rate is changed when the trim is already set, the trim
may be thrown off. If the trim setting is 0 then this does not
apply.)
P
Lower trim rates enable fine adjustments, but the effects may not be
apparent depending on the servo used. If there is a lot of slop in the
linkage or servo saver, fine trim adjustments could cause the user to
constantly worry about the trim settings. In that case, please reexamine
the linkages, etc.
P
If the sub trim value becomes large, adjust the servo horn position
or linkages so that the value becomes closer to 0. If the sub trim
value is too large, dead zones could result and the servo may not
operate at the extremities of its movement range.
P
The set percentage is a ratio of the value set by the Steering
Travel.
P
If the trim is set to a large value, a large left/right value discrepancy
may result. If adjusting steering balance for the rst time, follow the
procedures below.
Set trim value to 0.
Adjust sub trim so that the car drives in a straight line when
steering is in neutral position.
Use steering travel to match the overall steering angle range.
Use steering balance to match the left/right turning radii.
If the car does not drive straight at this point, use trim to correct.
P
Steering balance can be adjusted by using the steering wheel
and ET key!
If an ET key that is assigned to steering trim is pressed while the
steering is turned over halfway in either direction, the balance of
the direction of the turn can be adjusted.
However, this cannot be done while on the Function Menu or
System Menu screens.
