trigger. This Transmitter features 2 reversing functions: Steering Reverse and Throttle
Reverse.
Steering Reverse: Reverse the response direction
when operating steering wheel. Turning left steering
wheel, the model turns right while turning right the
model turns left.
Throttle Reverse: Reverse the response direction
when operating throttle trigger. Pushing forward
throttle trigger the model moves backward while
pulling back, the model moves forward. If necessary
you can just use a small screwdriver to adjust the
responding switches.
Installed the Throttle limiter can reduced
Throttle travel by 30% .
Ideal for beginner.
ATV enables to adjust the maximum steering angle of servo on both sides (Left
and Right) when model makes steering. The ATV aects the sensitivity of servo.
Reducing dual rate value can lower the sensitivity of servo and reduce the same
maximum steering angle on both sides. Remember to adjust the ATV within the
adjustment range.
