1. Choose where to install, what size, and

what color LEDs are to be used. Next, choose
the desired SQ-1 blink MODE (See Blink Mode
Section page 5).

NOTE – The blink MODE indicates
where to plug each LED into the SQ-1
controller.

2. Drill Holes for LED Holders. Be careful

to not drill the hole too large. NOTE - You can
purchase a hand drill from your local RC hobby
store. Follow carefully all safety instructions
provided with the drill.

3. Snap LED Holders into Holes.

4. Insert LEDs into LED Holders. It is

recommended to apply a pliable glue, such as
Zap Goo or Shoe Goo, liberally making sure the
glue contacts the body, the LED and LED wires.
The glue should strengthen the wires and help
the LEDs last longer.

NOTE - The proper glue may be
purchased from an RC hobby store.

LED INSTALLATION

OF YOUR LIGHTING AND
FOR ANY NOTES.

MODE LED

When power is applied to the SQ-1, the Power LED will
blink. The number of LED blinks indicates the mode that

the controller is set to. If you’re in MODE 1 the LED will blink
one time then stay on steady. In MODE 2, the LED will blink
twice, MODE 3, three times, and so on.

MODE Button

To change the MODE, simply press the MODE Button.

NOTES:

• If there is no Power LED, then the controller may be set

to MODE 0 ALL OFF and you should switch to a di󰀨erent

mode.

• When SQ-1’s power is restarted, it will remember the
MODE it was last set to.

• If you plug the SQ-1’s power cable backwards into the
receiver or 9V Battery, no damage will occur but the

controller won’t behave correctly. To x, just plug in

correctly.

• You can splice (cut and solder) up to four LEDs into one
SQ-1 output port. Splicing does void the warranty of the

LEDs, but this feature o󰀨ers more options for your RC

vehicle.

• If you wish to do this then follow these simple guidelines:

• Solder all LEDs in parallel.

• All LEDs in the cable must be the same color.

• Don’t splice more than four LEDs into a single port.
