• The servo saver should always be set so that it works smoothly and is not too tight otherwise the servo gets damaged.
• Check on your remote control and the vehicle the batteries whether these are still fully charged.
• Check on your remote control, the TRIM settings that the wheels are straight, and that you have enough steering angle.

After each driving:

• If you have driven in dirty terrain, it is advisable to clean the completely car.
• If you are driving through rain or water you have to dry the entire vehicle, otherwise, all metal parts will rust. To displace moisture is WD40 just right.

Startup and programming card:

1. Connect the BEC connection cable of the ESC to the receiver.
2. Connect the motor cables to the ESC.
3. Turn on the remote control
4. Connect the battery to the ESC and turn on the ESC.
5. When the connection with the motor and battery is properly made, a confirmation “beep” will be heard.
6. When the trigger of the remote control is in the neutral position, there is a confirmation again by a “Beep”.
7. The speed controller is now ready for use.
8. Change BEC Volt Output (6.1V / 7.3V): Turn off the ESC. Connect the “Volt Set-up Cable” to the BEC connection cable. Switch on the ESC – confirmation is given by a “Beep”. Disconnect the cable after 2 seconds. After the new BEC Volt setting, the ESC confirms the 6.1V setting with “ix Beep” and the 7.3V setting with “2x Beep”. Now switch off the ESC to confirm the setting.

Troubleshooting:

1. After switching on, the motor does not work/no “beep” is heard: Please check the connection to the battery and the motor.
2. After power on, the LED flashes: check the voltage (V) of LiPo/NiMH batteries in the vehicle.
3. If the vehicle is not fully powered, please check the voltage (V) of the batteries in the vehicle or the temperature of the ESC is too high.
4. If the vehicle simply stops while driving, check the motor cables and if the freewheeling is guaranteed.
5. If the vehicle is running in the wrong direction, reverse two of the three motor cables.

Programming card:

1. Low Voltage Cut-off: This function is to protect LiPo batteries from “deep discharge” (default: 3.1V). CAUTION: Never use the “oV” setting when operating LiPo batteries. A deep discharge will destroy the battery immediately!
2. Start Mode (also called Punch): from Soft to Strong (Default: Medium). ATTENTION: The setting “Strong” is only suitable for experienced drivers. In addition, the wear in this setting is enormous!
3. Maximum brake force: setting of the brake force (default: 25%)
4. Maximum reverse force: setting of reverse force (default: 25%) 5. Neutral range: response of the ESC (default: 9%)

Using the programming card:

1. Connect the ESC’s BEC cable to the program card and power on the vehicle.
2. The green LED will blink zx to confirm that the ESC is properly connected to the program card. The red LED shows the currently set values.
3. Press the Down key to switch between the different programs.
4. By pressing the Right key, you can change the values of the selected program.
5. Confirm your settings with the “program key” – the green LED confirms the settings and goes out after 5 sec. The process is completed.
