SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
.&. Warning
• Please read entire instruction manual before using transmitter
• Please treat transmitter with care as it is not a toy
• Please only use recommended batteries. Do not install batteries with reverse polarity
or disassemble batteries
• Please do not run multiple radio control vehicles under the same frequency
• Please do not store or operate transmitter in extreme hot, cold, or humid conditions
• Please turn off and remove batteries when not using transmitter
• Please disconnect motor when making transmitter adjustments
Troubleshooting
If you experience problems with your system, including erratic control or short range control problems,
check the following table for probable causes. If none of the followig suggestions fix the problem,
return the unit to the service department.
Problem Possible Cause Solution
Transmitter will not turn on
or voltage is low Dead or low batteries Replace batteries
Batteries inserted incorrectly Check orientation of batteries,
ensure that they are inserted
according to the markings
Faulty contacts Ensure that contacts are
not damaged and are
making good contact with
the batteries
Corroded or dirty contacts Check contacts for corrosion,
clean if necessary
Decreased range of control
or erratic control Loose antenna Ensure the antenna is
screwed all the way in
Antenna not completely
extended Completely extend the
antenna

ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)- To eliminate wheel lockup under braking which might result in
understeering or oversteering.
ATL (Adjustable Throttle Limiter) - Use to adjust the amount of travel available to the braking side of the
throttle trigger or servo.
CH1 (Channel 1 ) - Use to control steering.
CH2 (Channel 2) - Use to control throttle.
CH3 (Channel 3) - Use to control forward and reverse.
D/R (Steering Dual Rate) - Use to adjust the amount of steering travel available.
DT (Digital Trim) - Digital switches used to make adjustments on the transmitter.
EPA(End Point Adjustment) - EPA is used to adjust the maximum servo travel for each
channel/servo.
REV (Servo Reversing) - Reverses the direction in which the servo responds, related to transmitter operation.
Servo - Electric motors used to do physical work inside a radio control vehicle.
Power Alarm
• Low battery Alarm
An alarm will sound if the transmitter voltage drops below 8.5V and the LCD screen will show "LOW"
(see drawing below).
This alarm is meant as a safety feature only. The transmitter should not be operated below 9V.
NO 1
, Audible
alarm: Continuous tone
LOMv
A Warning
If the battery alarm sounds, turn off the car then transmitter as soon as possible to prevent loss of control.
Features
-LCD screen displays digital adjustments and settings
- Four edit keys for setup
- 10 model memory (#0-9)
Use up to three letters, numbers, or symbols to easily identify models.
-Dual Rate Steering (D/R Steering)
Steering angle can be changed using digital trim.
- Digital Trim
Steering Trim, Throttle Trim, Adjustable Throttle
ATl, and D/R steering can all be
adjusted using digital trim switches.
-Switch function reassignment (DT1, DT2, DT3, DT4)
Allows for assignment of a function to any digital trim switches (digital trim switches
, rocker switches). All switches are digital so there is no need to readjust trim
position for different models after initial setup.
-Steering wheel tension adjustment
Steering wheel tension can be adjusted externally, with no need to disassemble the
controller

ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)- To eliminate wheel lockup under braking which might result in
understeering or oversteering.
ATL (Adjustable Throttle Limiter) - Use to adjust the amount of travel available to the braking side of the
throttle trigger or servo.
CH1 (Channel 1 ) - Use to control steering.
CH2 (Channel 2) - Use to control throttle.
CH3 (Channel 3) - Use to control forward and reverse.
D/R (Steering Dual Rate) - Use to adjust the amount of steering travel available.
