Important!
Thevehicleandspeedcontrolleraresuitablefor:
- 2-cell LiPo drive battery (rated voltage 7.4 V)
- 3-cell LiPo drive battery (rated voltage 11.1 V)
- 6-7 cell NiMH drive battery (rated voltage 7.2 V or 8.4 V)
When using a drive rechargeable battery
with more cells, there is a danger of re
resulting from the speed controller overheat-
ing. In addition, the vehicle's drive will be
overloaded and thus damaged (e.g. differ-
ential).Thiswillvoidthewarranty!
Check whether the battery has a suitable connector system for the speed controller and that the polarity is
correct (red cable = positive/+, black cable = negative/-).
Loosen the two straps (A) on the battery holder.
Insert the drive battery into the battery holder (B).
If the battery’s connection cable is very short, the battery must be inserted into the battery holder with connection
cable pointing forward.
