RADIO INTERFERENCE:

Sometimes erratic behavior or loss of control of vehicle is the result of interference
caused by high tension wires, high voltage transformers, certain types of building, concreate walls or narrow
places where RADIO SIGNALS sent from your transmitter MAY BE SCATTERED thus making it DIFFICULT
for your vehicle to receive a GOOD RADIO SIGNAL. If you encounter this type of behavior or loss of control,
CHANGE TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION.

You will encounter INTERFERENCE if ANOTHER radio controlled vehicle or

CB radio is operating in the vicin-

ity on your SAME FREQUENCY.

DO NOT operate your vehicle on thick-piled carpets. It can be dangerous since the carpet
fiber may twine round a shaft and cause a motor overheated.
