WATER-RESISTANT VEHICLE WITH WATERPROOF ELECTRONICS

Your new Horizon Hobby vehicle has been designed and built with a combination of waterproof and water-resistant components to allow you to operate the product in many “wet conditions,” including puddles, creeks, wet grass, snow and even rain.
While the entire vehicle is highly water-resistant, it is not completely waterproof and your vehicle should NOT be treated like a submarine.
The various electronic components used in the vehicle, such as the Electronic Speed Control (ESC), servo(s) and receiver are waterproof, however, most of the mechanical components are water-resistant and should not be submerged.
Metal parts, including the bearings, hinge pins, screws and nuts, as well as the contacts in the electrical cables, will be susceptible to corrosion if additional maintenance is not performed after running in wet conditions. To maximize the long-term performance of your vehicle and to keep the warranty intact, the procedures described in the “Wet Conditions Maintenance” section below must be performed regularly if you choose to run in wet conditions. If you are not willing to perform the additional care and maintenance required, then you should not operate the vehicle in those conditions.
CAUTION: Failure to exercise caution while using this product and complying with the following precautions could result in product malfunction and/or void the warranty.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

• Read through the wet conditions maintenance procedures and make sure that you have all the tools you will need to properly maintain your vehicle.
• Not all batteries can be used in wet conditions. Consult the battery manufacturer before use. Caution should be taken when using Li-Po batteries in wet conditions.
• Most transmitters are not water-resistant. Consult your transmitter’s manual or the manufacturer before operation.
• Never operate your transmitter or vehicle where lightning may be present.
• Do not operate your vehicle where it could come in contact with salt water (ocean water or water on salt-covered roads), contaminated or polluted water. Salt water is very conductive and highly corrosive, so use caution.
• Even minimal water contact can reduce the life of your motor if it has not been certified as water-resistant or waterproof. If the motor becomes excessively wet, apply very light throttle until the water is mostly removed from the motor. Running a wet motor at high speeds may rapidly damage the motor.
• Driving in wet conditions can reduce the life of the motor. The additional resistance of operating in water causes excess strain. Alter the gear ratio by using a smaller pinion or larger spur gear. This will increase torque (and motor life) when running in mud, deeper puddles, or any wet conditions that will increase the load on the motor for an extended period of time.

WET CONDITIONS MAINTENANCE

• Drain any water that has collected in the tires by spinning them at high speed. With the body removed, place the vehicle upside down and pull full throttle for a few short bursts until the water has been removed.
  CAUTION: Always keep hands, fingers, tools and any loose or hanging objects away from rotating parts when performing the above drying technique.

• Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts. If you have an air compressor or a can of compressed air, blow out any water that may be inside the recessed connector housing.

• Remove the tires/wheels from the vehicle and gently rinse the mud and dirt off with a garden hose. Avoid rinsing the bearings and transmission.
  NOTICE: Never use a pressure washer to clean your vehicle.

• Use an air compressor or a can of compressed air to dry the vehicle and help remove any water that may have gotten into small crevices or corners.

• Spray the bearings, drive train, fasteners and other metal parts with a water-displacing light oil. Do not spray the motor.

• Let the vehicle air dry before you store it. Water (and oil) may continue to drip for a few hours.

• Increase the frequency of disassembly, inspection and lubrication of the following:
  – Front and rear axle hub assembly bearings.
  – All transmission cases, gears and differentials.
  – Motor—clean with an aerosol motor cleaner and re-oil the bushings with lightweight motor oil.

You must rebind when:

• Different failsafe positions are desired (e.g., when throttle or steering reversing has changed).
• Binding the receiver to a different transmitter.

RANGE-CHECKING THE RADIO SYSTEM

The radio system should be checked before operating the vehicle to ensure proper operation and adequate range.

1. Turn on the transmitter.
2. Connect the battery in the vehicle.
3. Have a friend hold the vehicle while keeping hands and loose clothing away from moving parts.
4. Walk away until you are at the maximum planned operating distance from the vehicle.
5. Turn the steering wheel side to side and operate the throttle, both forward and reverse, checking for any erratic behavior.
6. If any erratic behavior is exhibited, DO NOT operate the vehicle. Contact customer service for assistance.

USING THE DIG TRANSMISSION

The vehicle includes a “Dig” transmission which allows the rear axle to lock while still allowing the front wheels to spin. Use this feature in close quarters to turn the vehicle tighter than is possible with normal 4 wheel drive or to preload the suspension when needed.
To use the Dig function:

1. Press and hold the channel 3 B button on the transmitter. The Dig function engages, locking the rear axle. Hold the B button as long as you want the dig function to be engaged.
2. Advance the throttle and turn the steering wheel left or right to tightly pivot the vehicle around.
3. Release the channel 3 B button to disengage the Dig function.
   TIP: Reversing slightly may be required to disengage the Dig function.
   If necessary, refer to the DX3 manual to adjust the endpoints of the Dig function.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
Just like a full size car or truck, your RC vehicle must undergo periodic maintenance in order to ensure peak performance. Preventative maintenance will also help avoid needless breakages which could result in costly repairs. Below are some suggestions to properly maintain your vehicle.

Replace any noticeable bent or
broken parts| Check for wear on the ball joints in
the steering and suspension links
(replace if necessary)| Check driveshaft set screws and apply thread locking compound if necessary| Inspect shock absorbers for smooth
dampened operation| Check for any loose connections or frayed
wiring

Check the wheel nuts for tightness| Ensure the wheel beads are still firmly bonded around the entire circumference of the rim| Keep the chassis free of dirt and debris| Check for loose screws on the chassis, especially the knuckle, C-hub and axle lockout screws| Check the driveline for smooth, bind free
operation

If applicable, check the slipper clutch for
proper operation| Check the receiver antenna for damage| Check the steering operation for any binding| Inspect the spur and pinion gears for
damage| Replace the transmitter batteries when indicated by the transmitter, as described in the Transmitter Functions section

SPEKTRUM RECEIVER/ESC COMBO

OPERATION

1. Power on the transmitter.
2.  Power on the receiver.
3. The green LED on the receiver will be illuminated when it is connected to your transmitter.
4. Disconnect the battery from the ESC/Receiver after operation.

FAILSAFE
In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the 2-in-1 will drive the throttle channel to the neutral (throttle off) position. If the 2-in-1 is powered on prior to turning on the transmitter, it will enter failsafe mode, leaving throttle off. When the transmitter is turned on, normal control will resume.
