USING THE RADIO SYSTEM
The TQi Radio System has been pre-adjusted at the factory. The
adjustment should be checked before running the model, in case of
movement during shipping. Here's how:
1. Turn the transmitter switch on. The status LED on the transmitter
should be solid green (not flashing).
2. Elevate the model on a block or a stand so that all the tires are
off the ground. Make sure your hands are clear of the moving
parts of the model.
3. Plug the battery packs in the model into the speed control.
4. Switch the model on by sliding the power switch on top of the
speed control to the "on" position. The speed control will play
a descending tone, then beep once for each LiPo cell it detects.
With Traxxas Power Cell 3S batteries installed, the speed control
will beep six times (two 3-cell batteries = 6 cells).
Do not operate your model if the number of cells you have
installed does not match the number of cells detected by the
speed control.
5. Turn the steering wheel on the transmitter back and forth and
check for rapid operation of the steering servo. Also, check that
the steering mechanism is not loose or binding. If the steering
operates slowly, check for weak batteries.
6. When looking down at the
model, the front wheels
should be pointing straight
ahead. If the wheels are
turned slightly to the left or
right, turn off TSM (see page
17) and slowly adjust the
steering trim control on the transmitter until they are pointing
straight ahead; then, return the Multi-Function knob to the
desired TSM setting.
7. Gently operate the throttle trigger to ensure that you have
forward and reverse operation, and that the motor stops when
the throttle trigger is at neutral. Warning: Do not apply full
throttle in forward or reverse while the model is elevated.
8. Once adjustments are made, turn the model off first (using the
switch on the speed control), then turn off the transmitter.

Range-Testing the Radio System
Before each running session with your model, you should range-test
your radio system to ensure that it operates properly.
1. Turn on the radio system and check its operation as described in
the previous section.
2. Have a friend hold the model. Make sure hands and clothing are
clear of the wheels and other moving parts on the model.
3. Walk away from the model with the transmitter until you reach
the farthest distance you plan to operate the model.
4. Operate the controls on the transmitter once again to be sure
that the model responds correctly.
5. Do not attempt to operate the model if there is any problem
with the radio system or any external interference with your
radio signal at your location.
Higher Speeds Require Greater Distance
The faster you drive your model, the more quickly it will near the
limit of radio range. At 102mph, XO-1 covers 150 feet each second!
It's a thrill, but use caution to keep your model in range.
No matter how fast or far you drive your model, always leave
adequate space between you, the model, and others. Never drive
directly toward yourself or others. Think about where the model will
go if you lose control of it. Make sure there are no people or animals
in those areas.
TQi Binding Instructions
For proper operation, the transmitter and receiver must be
electronically 'bound.' This has been done for you at the factory.
Should you ever need to re-bind the system or bind to an additional
transmitter or receiver, follow these instructions. Note: the receiver
must be connected to a 4.8-6.0v (nominal) power source for
binding, and the transmitter and receiver must be within 5 feet of
each other.
1. Press and hold the transmitter's SET button as you switch on the
transmitter. The transmitter's LED will flash red slowly.
2. Press and hold the receiver's LINK button as you switch on the
speed control.
3. When the transmitter and receiver's LEDs turn solid green, the
system is bound and ready for use. Confirm that the steering and
throttle operate properly before driving your model.
