Driving - Maverick VADER XB Manuel D'instructions

Programmable Values
1. Running Mode - Choose what you want the ESC to do. We do not recommend for/rev.
2. Drag Brake - The amount of brake effect you get when lifting off in neutral, higher value is more brake
3. Voltage Protect - Allows you to have a safe cut off voltage per cell in the battery. Never go below 3.0V/per cell with LiPo. Use 'None' for
Ni-MH batteries.
4. DRRS Punch - This is the amount of bottom end power you get, higher levels will increase punch and increase motor temperature.
5. Brake Force - Controls the total braking power, higher value is more brake
6. Reverse Force - Controls speed in reverse, higher value is faster. We recommend keeping this low.
7. Initial Brake - This is the feeling of brakes when you start to apply the brake. Higher value is more brake. If you use a drag brake setting then
you should choose drag brake to keep the feeling correct.
8. Neutral Range - Controls the responsiveness/reaction of the ESC around neutral. Higher value slows down reaction.
9. AMTS Timing - Relates to ultimate top speed, higher value will be faster but will also increase motor temperature.
10. Overheat protection—Protects the ESC, always turned on.
11. Motor Rotate - Clockwise (CW) or Counter Clockwise rotation (CCW)
12. LiPo Cells—Always leave on Auto Calculate for maximum protection.

Driving

Driving an R/C car can be very difficult to master but here are some basic tips to help you to understand how to use it before you have your first
attempt
•
Drive the vehicle in a very large space, especially until you get the feel of driving the product.
•
Do not run on public streets or highways. This could cause serious accidents, personal injuries and/or property damage.
•
Do not run in water or sand.
•
If you keep pulling the throttle trigger on the transmitter, the vehicle will keep accelerating and run very fast. It is difficult to steer the
vehicle running at high speed until you become used to driving. Drive the vehicle slowly by pulling the throttle trigger to the fullest and
quickly releasing it.
You can turn the vehicle right or left while it is running.
When the vehicle is running toward you, you need to operate the steering wheel in the opposite direction to the operation when the vehicle is
running away from you.
Practice turning the vehicle, referring to the following:
Rather than just paying attention to the direction of the steering wheel, imagine that you are at the centre of the steering wheel, looking ahead of
the vehicle, to turn in the direction you like.
Once you become conformable driving the vehicle, practice driving on a track with cones.
Keep practising until you feel comfortable with the steering, throttle and brake at low speeds.
Once you are feeling comfortable try using reverse.
When you have mastered the basics you will be able to drive at higher speeds in a more controlled fashion.
