Calibrating ESCs
When calibrating your ESC and transmitter, ensure your Throttle Trim is
centered and your Throttle and Brake EPA settings are set to their maximum
of 100%. This will ensure your ESC reaches full throttle/brake when your
trigger reaches full travel.
Standard Operation
Below is a brief introduction into the basic operation of your transmitter as it
pertains to operating your vehicle.
Tip: When learning how to operate a radio controlled vehicle, we highly
recommend you use the beginner mode feature of your transmitter. This will help
reduce the risk of damage caused by a phenomenon experienced users refer to as
a “panic rev”.
When operating the steering, orient yourself and the transmitter so that you
are looking at the face of the transmitter wheel. We don’t recommend normal
operation like this due to comfort but it is a good place to start for new users.
• Turning the top of the transmitter wheel to the left from center should
make the wheels on the vehicle turn left.
• Turning the top of the transmitter wheel to the right from center should
make the wheels on the vehicle turn right.
Note: If the wheels turn the opposite direction from what they should, see the
section on channel reversing to correct the issue.
• Pushing the transmitter trigger forward away from the handle will typically
apply brakes. However some ESCs are congured to go immediately
into reverse. Check with your ESC owner’s manual for specic operation
details.
CAUTION: ALWAYS TEST YOUR ABILITY TO REACH AND APPLY FULL BRAKE PRIOR
TO TESTING FORWARD THROTTLE
• Slowly pulling the transmitter trigger back towards the handle will make
the vehicle accelerate forward.
CAUTION: CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO MAKE QUICK TRANSITIONS FROM FORWARD/
REVERSE MOTION TO THE OPPOSTE DIRECTION USING THE THROTTLE CONTROL
CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE AND ELECTRONICS AND COULD VOID
YOUR VEHICLE’S WARRANTY.
