transmitler off.
.
Keep the wheels of the model off the ground, keep your hands away from the wheels when checking the operation of the radio
equipment.

direction forwards/backwards, continuous stop/starts, pushing/pulling objects, driving in deep sand and tall grass, or driving
continuously up hill.

Notes on Battery use:
WARNING! NEVER LEAVE THE BATTERY UNATTENDED WHILE ON CHARGE.
.
Charging/Installing the Battery
Always store your model with the battery pack unplugged and removed. Always charge your battery away from the vehicle.
The supplied charger can charge either 2s or 3s (cell number) Lipo batteries.The supplied
battery is a 3s ensure you plug it into the correct 3s balance port.
When the charger is connected to the mains powers the power LED will turn green. Once your
connect your balance connector to the charge the status LED will turn red indicating that
charging is in progress. Once the battery is fully charged the status LED will turn green. If you
experience the LED blinking red then there is an error with either the battery or charger.
When charging a completely discharged battery, the charger can become hot to touch. NEVER
LEAVETHE BATTERY CHARGE UNATTENDED。Always disconnect the charger from the
mains supply and the battery pack when not in use.
To install a charged battery, firstly remove the body shell and insert the battery into the battery
case, then fasten the two Velcro straps to fix the battery stably. When connecting battery and
turning car on, ensure it is off ground with wheels away from objects.
Always allow the battery cool after use, before recharging.
Always inspect the battery before charging.
Any bare wires, split heat shrink or leakage is a sure sign of abuse.
Never attempt to charge dead or damaged batteries.
Do not disassemble the battery or cut the connector wires.
If the battery connector,battery case or cable insulation get hot enough to melt or split there is most likely a serious problem with
your model,battery wires or speed controller.Find and correct the problem before installing another charged battery pack.
NEVER charge the battery unattended incase of overcharging, you need to be able to monitor the battery during charging.
Charge away from flammable objects and on a non-flammable surface incase the battery becomes too hot.
Aerial Assembly
As the aerial wire on 2.4GHz system is so short you do not need to protrude through the body shell and it can be left to stand
directly from the receiver. If you want the security of an aerial tube away simply cut it short, and insert in the usual way but do NOT
bend over the last 5mm of aerial wire to retain it under the rubber cap, last two inches of aerialwire need to be straight with no kinks
for maximum range and control with 2.4GHz system.
First be sure to insert the wire up through the receiver cover hole as below. Push the wire all the way through the aerial tube until
the first 5mm of wire shows out of the other end. Finally make aerial tube firmly seated.

Regular maintenance.
Trouble shooting guide.
Frequently check the whole vehicle for loose or missing fixings.Use
thread lock on any replacement screws into metal threads.
Getting Started
After Run.
Refer to 2.4ghz binding manual for radio set-up.
Switch on transmitter
Hold vehicle clear of the ground,connect battery pack and switch on receiver.
Test the transmitter to check control of the vehicle with wheels off the ground.
Start driving slowly and if the vehicle does not go straight ,adjust steering trim dial on Transmitter.
For the very first run use the throttle gently,to help the driver become accustomed to the vehicles behaviour and controls.
Although this vehicle features waterproof electronics they are not designed to be submerged in water.
Potential damage can still occur to vehicles components if you do so.
Switch off the receiver power,switch off the transmitter.Disconnect the battery and remove it from the vehicle,allow it to cool
before recharging.If you have a second charged battery all ready to use,still allow the vehicle to cool slightly before continuing.
Frequently check rotating parts are free from grass,stringetc.that might
bind their motion and over stress the motor or speed controller.Remove
the wheels occasionally and check behind the mounting hex for
obstructions oranything that might have been wrapped around the
axleand caused extra drag.
Check the gear mesh frequently and remove any stones or grit from
gear teeth to prevent premature wear and damage.If the motor moves,
or is removed for maintenance/exchange,the gear mesh will need to be
set.Simply slacken the motor retaining screws and adjust the motor
until there is just discemable backlash between pinion and spur teeth.
If the gear is too tight or too loose the gears will be noisy and could be
damaged.
Shock absorbers will wear prematurely if used in dirty dusty conditions.
Replace oil and seals as required to keep a smooth dampening action.

LIPO BATTERY-USER SAFETY AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS.
General guidelines and warnings:
Charging process:
Read all safety instructions before charging or using your batteries for the first time.
Lipo batteries require completely different charging and care than Nicd and NIMH batteries.Misuse can result in
fire,personal injury and/or damage to property.The buyer assumes all Liability and risk associated with the use
of Lithium-Polymer (Li-Po) batteries.Immediately retum the battery,unused,if you do not agree with these terms.
1.Use a Lithium Polymer specific chargers only!Do not use a NiCd or NiMH charger.
2.NEVER charge unattended.Always charge in safety sack or metal tin with lid and away from other flammable
materials.
3.During the charge process watch for swollen or ballooning cells.If this happens immediately disconnect the
charger and move the battery to a fire proof place for 15 minutes. Do not attempt to charge again.
4.A short circuit can cause a rapid discharge of high currents.Avoid short circuits,and be aware of short circuits
on jewelery.
5.Any Lithium Polymer battery involved in a crash should be removed and observed in a fireproof space for 15
minutes before continuing to use or charge the battery.
6.If rewiring the battery pack,rewire the leads one at a time .Do not cut both leads.Do not short circuit on tools.
7.Do not expose battery packs to direct sunlight for extended periods.
8.Do not attempt to tamper with or open the LiPo Hardcase.The case is protection against possible battery
swelling.
Before charging:
Visually inspect the pack checking for damaged leads,connectors,cracked heat shrink covering,swelling or
other abnormalities.Do not charge if the pack is damaged.
1.NEVER charge unattended.
2.Charge away from flammable materials and inside a Lipo safe sack or metal tin with lid.
3.Allow battery to cool before charging.
4.Use the battery label for setting charger cell count and voltage.
5.Do not exceed 5C MAX charge rate.(Example,charge a 1000mAH pack at 5A MAX)
If disposing of a Lipo battery proceed as follows:
Submerse the battery into a container filled with about 10 litres of salt water(one cup of salt in 10L).Leave the
battery submerged for 2 weeks,this will slowly and safely discharge the battery until the voltage has dropped to
zero volts which eliminates the risk of any chemical reaction.It can then be disposed off in the general waste
collection.
