The vehicle does not travel in a straight line
• Set the steering trim on the remote control.
• Check the steering linkage, servo arm, servo saver and screw connection.
• Has the vehicle had an accident? If so, check the vehicle for any defective or broken parts and replace them if
necessary.
The vehicle moves in the opposite direction to the steering wheel on the remote control
• Enable the steering reverse function on the remote control.
The vehicle responds in the opposite way to the throttle/brake lever on the remote control
• Usually, the vehicle should move forwards when the throttle/brake lever on the remote control is pulled towards the
handle. If this is not the case, enable the reverse throttle on the remote control.
• If the engine has been disconnected from the speed controller (for example, when repairing the vehicle), swap two
of the three engine cables.
The vehicle does not steer properly or the steering angle is too low
• If the transmitter has a dual rate setting, check that it is working correctly (refer to the operating instructions of the
remote control for details). If the dual rate setting is too low, the steering servo will not respond.
• Check the steering mechanism for loose parts (e.g. check whether the servo arm is attached correctly to the servo).
