2. Ensure your transmitter is powered ON, the throttle is not reversed, the throttle trim is
neutral and the throttle travel range is at 100%.

The ESC comes with a jumper pre-installed in the position for NiMH batteries.
To change the battery type:
1. Power OFF the ESC.
2. Disconnect the jumper from the default port and connect it to the desired port.
3. Power ON the ESC.
If the jumper are lost or not installed, the ESC will default to Ni-MH.
WARNING: Do not connect bind plugs or receiver servo leads into the ESC
programming port. Doing so may damage the ESC and/or components.
POWERING ON THE VEHICLE
1. Power on the transmitter.
2. Remove the body from the vehicle.
3. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC.
4. Power on the ESC.
PERFORMING A CONTROL DIRECTION TEST
Perform a control test with the vehicle wheels off the ground. If the wheels rotate after the
vehicle is powered ON, adjust the throttle trim until they stop. To make the wheels move
forward, pull the trigger. To reverse them, wait for the wheels to stop, then push the trigger.
When moving forward, the wheels should maintain a straight line without any steering wheel
input. If not, adjust the steering trim, so the wheels maintain a straight line without having to
turn the steering wheel.
