8. Completion of Model Vehicle
a) Taking off the car body
The car body is secured with holding brackets which have to be slid out of the retaining pins from the side. Afterwards
the body can be lifted off towards the top.
b) Testing of steering function with the help of transmitter
If the front wheels are turning left although you steered towards the right on the transmitter, you have to change the
direction of steering of the steering servo with the servo reverse function on the remote control transmitter.
If the steering on the vehicle already responds strongly to a slight steering on the transmitter, choose a steering point
for the steering rods that is further on the inside on the lever of the steering servo.
Our tip:
Always try to set the mechanics optimally first before you limit the servo path electronically with trans-
mitter functions such as end point adjustment (EPA) or dual rate (D/R).
c) Mounting of drive battery
To install the battery pull off both retaining clips (1) and lift the
mounting brace (2) out towards the top.
Now place the rechargeable battery into the chassis and replace
the mounting brace. The securing of the mounting brace is then
taken on by the two retaining clips again.
The battery recess is designed for many different types of
rechargeable batteries.
Next to in-inline soldered racing packs (see picture), battery
packs with cells that are aligned in parallel can also be used. In
this case the mounting brace has to be put in with the top side
pointing downward.
Even 7-cell racing packs can be used when the mounting brace
(3) on the back is taken off and the back chassis drilling (4) is
put back in.
Warning!
The rechargeable battery pack must not yet be connected to the cruise control/receiver.
