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
o the ground. Make sure your hands are clear of the moving
parts of the model.
3. Plug the battery pack in the model into the speed control.
4. The on/o switch is integrated into the speed control. With the
transmitter on, press and release the EZ-Set button (.25 seconds).
The LED will shine GREEN. This turns the model on.
model o , unplug the batteries.
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 o 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.

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 off the receiver on your model,
followed by the hand-held transmitter.

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.

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 60mph, a model can cover 88 feet every
second! It's a thrill, but use caution to keep your model in range. If
you want to see your model achieve its maximum speed, it is best
to position yourself in the middle of the truck's running area, not
the far end, so you drive the truck towards and past your position.

In addition to maximizing the radio's range, this technique will keep
your model closer to you, making it easier to see and control.
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.
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 the
transmitter on. The transmitter's LED will flash red slowly.
Release the SET button.
2. Press and hold the receiver's LINK button as you switch on
the speed control (by pressing the EZ-Set button). Release the
LINK button.
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.
