8.2 Car / boat mode
8.2 Car / boat mode
Selecting car / boat mode activates the forward /
reverse function, with brake at idle.
In this mode the idle position (and the brake) is at the
centre of throttle stick travel.
When the drive battery is connected, the start-up guard
of the ROXXY Smart Control prevents activation of the
controller until the stick is moved to the centre position.
Moving the throttle stick forward to the end-point gene-
rates 100% throttle in the forward direction.
Moving the throttle stick back to the end-point genera-
tes 100% throttle in the reverse direction.
If you wish to set up different speed ranges for forward
and reverse, the easiest method is to reduce the throttle
servo travel at the transmitter.
Brake response, min. / max. brake
Different brake settings are applicable in car / boat
mode. The normal braking power setting is ignored.
For ground-based models with freewheel the default
setting is for the brake function to be active at the stick
centre position.
To operate the brake, the throttle stick must be moved
past the centre position in the opposite direction.
Default brake set-up parameters
Car - max. brake 100%
Car - min. brake 0%
Automatic brake 0%
· Min. brake determines the initial braking effect.
· Max. brake determines the nal braking effect.
It is possible to match the braking effect perfectly and
smoothly to suit your model’s power system by altering
these two parameters using MULTIPLEX Launcher.
If you want your vehicle to brake more quickly, you
must increase the Min. value. If the braking effect is
generally too powerful, you might wish to reduce the
Max. value slightly.
Automatic brake function
If you wish the brake function to come into effect at
stick centre instead of the freewheel action, you can
activate what is known as automatic brake. This is
accomplished by entering a value (1 - 70%) in the
Automatic Brake option.
If you activate the automatic brake function, the
controller ignores the values entered for Car -
Min. and Car Max. As soon as the throttle stick is
moved to the Centre position, the vehicle brakes
using the automatic brake value you have set.
