GETTING STARTED

Installing Transmitter Batteries

Your TQi transmitter uses 4 AA batteries. The battery compartment is
located in the base of the transmitter.
1. Remove the battery
compartment door by
pressing the tab and
sliding the door open.
2. Install the batteries
in the correct
orientation as
indicated in the battery
compartment.
3. Reinstall the battery door
and snap it closed.
4. Turn on the transmitter
and check the status LED
for a solid green light.
If the status LED flashes red, the transmitter
batteries may be weak, discharged or possibly
installed incorrectly. Replace with new or freshly
charged batteries. The power indicator light does
not indicate the charge level of the battery pack installed in the model.
Refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 14 for more information
on the transmitter status LED codes.

Use the Right Batteries
Your transmitter uses AA batteries. Use new alkaline batteries.
Do not use rechargeable AA cells to power the TQi transmitter, as they
will not provide sufficient voltage for optimum transmitter performance.
Caution: Discontinue running your model at the first sign of weak
batteries (flashing red light on the transmitter) to avoid losing control.
Caution: Risk of explosion if batteries are replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Selecting Your Model Profile
The Traxxas Link App includes model profiles and customized Traxxas Stability
Management (TSM) settings for each Traxxas model. Download the Traxxas
Link App to your Apple® iPhone®, iPad®, iPod touch®, or Android™ device
and select your model from the Home screen (see page 12 for additional
information).
If you do not have the Traxxas Link Wireless Module installed, then you will
not be able to use the Traxxas Link App to access the specific profile for your
model and the servo direction will need to be set manually. Follow the
instructions on page 16 to change these setting(s) to suit your model.
Using the Traxxas TQi Radio System with non-Traxxas Models
The TQi radio system can be used with all popular servos in any hobby-
grade RC vehicle. Follow the instructions on page 16 to change the servo
setting(s) to suit your model.
