a) Reverse Switches, Trimmer and ATV Knob
1
If the truck turns the wrong direction when driving, you can reverse the direction with the reverse switch. The same principle can be applied to forward and reverse
2
Use the steering trim to make minor adjustments to keep truck going in a straight line when not steering.
3
Use throttle trim to adjust if truck does not stop when not using the throttle.
4
Use the ATV Knob to adjust the steering endpoints. This can be used to make the truck steer more or less sharp.
b) Programming the End-points
To set the Right End-point of Steering
1
Turn on TX and RX.
2
Hold the steering wheel at right-most position and then hold the setup key for 10+ seconds until LED flashes.
3
Now move the steering wheel until the front wheel is at the right-most position. Then hold the steering wheel at this position and press the setup key to save this End-point.
4
The LED will blink 4 times and then return the TX back to normal operation.
To set the Left End-point of Steering
1
Similar to above, only difference is hold the steering at left-most position and then hold the setup key for 10+ seconds.
Throttle End-points Programming
1
Similar to steering end-point programming, hold the throttle at forward-most position to set forward end-point, (Reverse-most position to set reverse end-point) hold the setup key for 10+ seconds.
4. Low Battery Indicator
1
During normal operation, the LED should be solid ON.
2
Once battery gets too low, the LED will begin flashing very slowly to indicate battery is low. You should replace with a new battery replacement as soon as possible.
