n Chassis Component Overview
Battery Holder: Moulded out of impact-resistant nylon plastic, the battery holder firmly holds the battery pack that powers the
X-Terminator 2e. The battery holder is sized to t most 6 cell Ni-Cd or Ni-MH battery packs and 2 ~ 4S Li-Po battery packs.
Battery Retaining Strap: The battery retaining strap holds the Ni-MH or Li-Po battery pack that powers the X-Terminator 2e securely in
the battery holder. The battery retaining strap makes it easy to remove the battery pack and is adjustable to t different size battery packs.
Body Mount: Moulded out of high-impact nylon plastic for strength, the body mount supports the body. There is a dual-mount body
mount at the rear of the chassis and a single-mount body mount at the front of the chassis.
Brushless ESC with Cooling Fan: The ESC is a solid-state device that takes power from the battery pack and the throttle signal from
the receiver and converts them into proportional power for the motor. The X-Terminator 2e features a high-quality 120 Amp brushless,
sensored/sensorless ESC that can handle 6 ~ 12 cell Ni-Cds or Ni-MHs, or 2 ~ 4S Li-Pos. In addition, the ESC features a 3 Amp/6 Volt
Battery Eliminator Circuit (BEC), forward and reverse control, and a cooling fan that helps keep the ESC from getting too hot. The ESC
can also be programmed using the included ESC programming card.
Brushless Motor with Heat-Sink: The brushless motor provides the power to the drivetrain. Brushless motors are more efcient and
produce more power than brushed motors. The X-Terminator 2e features a powerful 2370kV brushless motor that includes a heat-sink
to help keep motor temperatures under control.
Bumper: Moulded out of impact-resistant nylon plastic, the bumper protects the chassis from most head-on impacts.
ESC Battery Leads: The ESC battery leads are where you plug your battery pack in to power your X-Terminator 2e. The ESC battery
leads feature high-quality 12 AWG silicone wire and gold-plated 4mm male Bullet connectors.
ESC On/Off Switch: Turns the ESC 'ON' and 'OFF'. The ESC On/Off switch features a Set button, which is used in the throttle control
range calibration feature. For more information, see page 11.
Receiver Box with Antenna Mount: This is where the receiver is mounted. The receiver box protects the receiver from dust, dirt and debris.
The top of the receiver box features a moulded antenna mount that the plastic antenna tube ts into. The receiver box is not waterproof.
