IMPORTANT NOTES – GENERAL

• This product is not suitable for children under 16 years of age without the direct supervision of a responsible and knowledgeable adult.
• Carefully read all manufacturers warnings and cautions for any parts used in the construction and use of your model.
• Assemble this kit only in places away from the reach of very small children.
• First-time builders and users should seek advice from people who have building experience in order to assemble the model correctly and to allow the model to reach its performance potential.
• Exercise care when using tools and sharp instruments.
• Take care when building, as some parts may have sharp edges.
• Keep small parts out of reach of small children. Children must not be allowed to put any parts in their mouth, or pull vinyl bag over their head.
• Read and follow instructions supplied with paints and/or cement, if used (not included in kit).
• Immediately after using your model, do NOT touch equipment on the model such as the motor and speed controller, because they generate high temperatures. You may seriously burn yourself seriously touching them.
• Follow the operating instructions for the radio equipment at all times.
• Do not put fingers or any objects inside rotating and moving parts, as this may cause damage or serious injury as your finger, hair, clothes, etc. may get caught.
• Be sure that your operating frequency is clear before turning on or running your model, and never share the same frequency with somebody else at the same time. Ensure that others are aware of the operating frequency you are using and when you are using it.
• Use a transmitter designed for ground use with RC cars. Make sure that no one else is using the same frequency as yours in your operating area. Using the same frequency at the same time, whether it is driving, flying or sailing, can cause loss of control of the RC model, resulting in a serious accident.
• Always turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver in the car. Always turn off the receiver before turning your transmitter off.
• Keep the wheels of the model off the ground when checking the operation of the radio equipment.
• Disconnect the battery pack before storing your model.
• When learning to operate your model, go to an area that has no obstacles that can damage your model if your model suffers a collision.
• Remove any sand, mud, dirt, grass or water before putting your model away.
• If the model behaves strangely, immediately stop the model, check and clear the problem.
• To prevent any serious personal injury and/or damage to property, be responsible when operating all remote controlled models.
• The model car is not intended for use on public places and roads or areas where its operation can conflict with or disrupt pedestrian or vehicular traffic.
• Because the model car is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio interference from many sources that are beyond your control. Since radio interference can cause momentary loss of control, always allow a safety margin in all directions around the model in order to prevent collisions.
• Do not use your model
  • Near real cars, animals, or people that are unaware that an RC car is being driven.
  • In places where children and people gather
  • In residential districts and parks
  • In limited indoor spaces
  • In wet conditions
  • In the street
  • In areas where loud noises can disturb others, such as hospitals and residential areas.
  • At night or anytime your line of sight to the model may be obstructed or impaired in any way.

To prevent any serious personal injury and/or damage to property, please be responsible when operating all remote controlled models.

IMPORTANT NOTES – ELECTRICAL

• Insulate any exposed electrical wiring (using heat shrink tubing or electrical tape) to prevent dangerous short circuits. Take maximum care in wiring, connecting and insulating cables. Make sure cables are always connected securely. Check connectors for if they become loose. And if so, reconnect them securely. Never use RC models with damaged wires. A damaged wire is extremely dangerous, and can cause short-circuits resulting in fire. Please have wires repaired at your local hobby shop.
• Low battery power will result in loss of control. Loss of control can occur due to a weak battery in either the transmitter or the receiver. Weak running battery may also result in an out of control car if your car‘s receiver power is supplied by the running battery. Stop operation immediately if the car starts to slow down.
• When not using RC model, always disconnect and remove battery.
• Do not disassemble battery or cut battery cables. If the running battery short-circuits, approximately 300W of electricity can be discharged, leading to fire or burns. Never disassemble battery or cut battery cables.
• Use a recommended charger for the receiver and transmitter batteries and follow the instructions correctly. Over-charging, incorrect charging, or using inferior chargers can cause the batteries to become dangerously hot. Recharge battery when necessary. Continual recharging may damage battery and, in the worst case, could build up heat leading to fire. If battery becomes extremely hot during recharging, please ask your local hobby shop for check and/or repair and/or replacement.
• Regularly check the charger for potential hazards such as damage to the cable, plug, casing or other defects. Ensure that any damage is rectified before using the charger again. Modifying the charger may cause short-circuit or overcharging leading to a serious accident. Therefore do not modify the charger.
• Always unplug charger when recharging is finished.
• Do not recharge battery while battery is still warm. After use, battery retains heat. Wait until it cools down before charging.
• Do not allow any metal part to short circuit the receiver batteries or other electrical/electronic device on the model.
• Immediately stop running if your RC model gets wet as may cause short circuit.
• Please dispose of batteries responsibly. Never put batteries into fire.

R/C & BUILDING TIPS

• Make sure all fasteners are properly tightened. Check them periodically.
• Make sure that chassis screws do not protrude from the chassis.
• For the best performance, it is very important that great care is taken to ensure the free movement of all parts.
• Clean all ball-bearings so they move very easily and freely.
• Tap or pre-thread the plastic parts when threading screws.
• Self-tapping screws cut threads into the parts when being tightened. Do not use excessive force when tightening the self-tapping screws because you may strip out the thread in the plastic. We recommended you stop tightening a screw when you feel some resistance.
• Ask your local hobby shop for any advice.

ALTERNATIVE 1

STANDARD TRACK-WIDTH (INITIAL SETTING)
Standard track-width setting is used for standard F1 front tires such HUDY, RIDE, HOT RACE.
To make sure that you use the correct setting, measure the track-width with the tires; the track-width must be maximum 190mm.

ALTERNATIVE 2

WIDE TRACK-WIDTH

• Wide track-width setting is used for the narrow F1 front tires such as Volante.
• To make sure that you use the correct setting, measure the track-width with the tires; the track-width must be maximum 190mm.

YOU CAN INSTALL A LOWER ARM BRACE TO INCREASE STEERING RESPONSE.

1. SOFT – WITHOUT THE BRACE (INITIAL SETTING)
   The car will have less initial steering. Recommended for high- and very-high- traction carpet tracks where the car needs to be easy to drive and less responsive.

2. MEDIUM – WITH BRACE
   Improves in-corner steering but still keeps the car easy to drive. Recommended for medium-high traction carpet tracks and high-traction asphalt tracks.

3. STIFF – WITH BRACE AND CONNECTED TO ALU FRONT STAND
   Provides maximum steering response. Recommended for low-medium traction carpet tracks and for all different traction conditions on asphalt tracks.

SOFTER SPRINGS
Makes the car easier to drive over bumps and increases steering as it makes the car roll more, especially in the middle of a corner.

HARDER SPRINGS
Makes the car more responsive and increases initial steering. Recommended for high-traction and flat tracks.

2x
After assembling the steering block, do the following:

1. Loosen the set-screw slightly.
2. Use your thumb to press down on the top of the kingpin, while using your other fingers to pull up the steering block.
3. Tighten the set-screw.

JAN RATHEISKY (factory driver)
We use different ride heights at indoor and outdoor tracks:

• INDOOR : Ride height is as low as the rules allow, usually 4mm.
• OUTDOOR : Always run at least 5mm ride height.

Rear ride height should always be 0.1-0.2mm higher than the front.
I recommend changing droop using the upper shims on the kingpin, but note that this also changes the ride height by the same amount. Adding +0.5mm shim means 0.5mm less droop because the spring gets more preload which results in a higher ride height. In that case, you should add the same amount (0.5mm) under the lower wishbone.

DROOP SETTING INDOOR
I recommend using a small amount of droop for carpet tracks, somewhere between 0.5-1mm to get the most on-power steering in combination with solid reactive steering

OUTDOOR
You should use more droop for asphalt tracks. At least 1mm up to 2mm. The more droop, the more on-power rear traction you get because of weight transfer to the rear. It also helps to get a more smooth-to-drive car at corner entry.

PIVOT MOUNTING ALTERNATIVE

• REARWARD: (INITIAL SETTING)
  Pivot mounted in rearward chassis holes, and 1mm shim used under the pivot ball. The rearward pivot mounting position gives the most steering and most free rear end. Recommended for high-traction conditions such as US black carpet.

• FORWARD
  Pivot mounted in forward chassis holes, with 3mm shims under the pivot ball. The forward pivot mounting position gives a good balance between front and rear traction.

OPTIONAL SIDE SHOCK
# 378100
Optional side shock can be used to improve traction in low- and medium- traction conditions. The optional side shock REPLACES the 2 side tubes.

CHASSIS FLEX ADJUSTMENT

• SOFT (NO BRACES)
  Generates more mechanical grip. Recommended for low- to medium-traction carpet as well as asphalt.

• MEDIUM
  Braces installed, attached at middle & rear only. This setting is a good compromise between mechanical grip and steering response. Ideal for most conditions.

• STIFF
  Braces installed, attached at front, middle, and rear. This is the stiffest, most stable setting. Recommended for high-traction carpet (such as US black carpet). The car will have less roll but will also have less overall grip.

SHOCK FILLING

• SOFTER OIL
  Recommended for bumpy and low-traction tracks, generates more traction.

• HARDER OIL
  Recommend for flat and high-traction tracks, improves steering response.

1. Fully extend the piston rod so the piston is at the bottom of the shock body.
2. Hold the shock upright and slightly overfill the shock body with shock oil.
3. Let the oil settle and allow air bubbles to rise to the top. Slowly move the piston up and down to allow oil into all cavities within the shock body.
4. Extend the piston rod most of the way out of the shock body. Let the shock rest for 5 minutes to allow the air bubbles to escape.
5. Add shock oil as necessary.

1. When installing the shock cap assembly on the shock body, some oil will leak out… this is normal.
2. Tighten the cap and clean off any excess oil.
3. After the shock is assembled, the shock rod will push itself out of the shock body fairly quickly.
4. Follow the next procedure to adjust the rebound.

REBOUND ADJUSTMENT AFTER THE SHOCK IS ASSEMBLED YOU HAVE TO SET THE SHOCK REBOUND:

1. Release the shock cap by 2-3 turns.
2. Push the shock shaft fully up. For the first time the extra oil will release through the hole in the alu cap-nut.
3. Tighten the shock cup. When tightening the shock cap, extra oil will again release through the hole in the alu cap – nut. When tightening, the shock shaft will push out from the shock body.

REBOUND CHECK REBOUND CHECK
It is very important to push the shock shaft into the shock body slowly otherwise air can come into the shock body which would create bubles.

• 100% rebound – do not do step 2 and 3
• 75% rebound – repeat steps 1 to 3 until the shock shaft will push out 75% of its length
• 50% rebound – repeat steps 1 to 3 until the shock shaft will push out 50% of its length
• 25% rebound – repeat steps 1 to 3 until the shock shaft will push out 25% of its length
• 0% rebound – repeat steps 1 to 3 until the shock shaft will push out 0% of its length

If the shock shaft does not rebound enough, you will have to refill the shock with shock oil, and then repeat the bleeding and rebound adjustment procedure

Jan Ratheisky (Factory Driver)
Set the ride height for your track and measure it at the link connection of the side pod. Lift the car on the rear part of the center shock. When you unload the shock fully, you can measure the height at the same spot again. The difference to the ride height is the droop amount. The set-up of the rear downstop is very important to find a good balance between traction and rotation. On both indoor and outdoor tracks, I recommend starting with 1mm droop. Less droop gives you more rear traction. Recommended for low-traction conditions. More droop frees up the rear and makes it looser, but results in more steering. You should not use more than 2.5mm rear droop at maximum.

DOWNSTOP ADJUSTMENT
The length of the shock absorber affects the amount of rear downstop. To adjust, thread the ball-joint on or off the bottom spring cap.

BATTERY MOUNTING POSITIONS
The X1 has 4 battery mounting positions. The more forward the battery is, the car will be easier to drive but it will be less responsive. The more rearward the battery is, the car will be more aggressive and have more steering.

1. Before cutting and making holes on the body, put the unpainted body on the chassis to confirm the mounting position and location for holes and cutouts.
2. Before cutting and making holes on the front wing, put the unpainted wing on the front bumper to confirm the mounting position and location for holes and cutouts. Before painting, wash the inside of the body with mild detergent, and then rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Mask the helmet shield if you wish.
4. Apply paint masks as appropriate.
5. Paint the body using paints formulated for polycarbonate bodies.
6. When the paint is dry, remove the masking.
7. Carefully cut out the body using appropriate scissors or cutting tools.
8. When you have finished cutting, peel off the external protective films.
