TRANSMITTER FUNCTIONS
STEERING TRIM
The steering trim is used to adjust the steering setting so that the car moves
in a straight line without using the steering wheel to compensate.
THROTTLE TRIM
The throttle trim is used to adjust the setting of the neutral position of the
throttle without using the throttle/brake trigger to compensate.
STEERING DUAL RATE (D/R)
Use this function to adjust the steering travel of your model. If the model
understeers while cornering, add steering by turning CW of the D/R button.
When the model oversteers, take away steering by turning CCW of the D/R
button.
RECEIVER
PLEASE NOTE: The channels “BIND” and “CH3” are not switched to reach a higher
transmission rate.
RECEIVER CONNECTION
CONNECTION WITH A ESC
GAS POWERED MODEL
Install the Receiver in your model using double-sided Velcro. Velcro will hold
the receiver in place and protect it from vibrations. Mount the antenna up and
away from the vehicle in an antenna tube. The higher up the antenna is, the
better signal it will receive. Install and connect the receiver, servos and
other components in accordance with the “Assembly Precautions”.
CAUTION: NEVER CUT THE ANTENNA
BINDING / LINKING THE RECEIVER AND TRANSMITTER
The transmitter and receiver are already paired at the factory and you do not
have to do anything. If you wish to connect the receiver with another
transmitter or connect a new receiver, or if you have a problem with the link,
follow the steps below to re-pair.
LINKING/BINDING PROCEDURE:
- Install the batteries in the 2.4 GHz radio. Transmitter on OFF.

E.P.A (STEERING)
The E.P.A. or End Point Adjustment. This is particularly important when using
a digital servo. An incorrectly set E.P.A. will stress the servo and it will
not last long. The transmitter is originally set to 100% E.P.A. It is possible
that this value is not correct and therefore the servo will try to push the
servo horn further than it can. Example on the steering. Turn the steering
wheel slowly and observe the wheels. If the wheels come to a stop before the
end of the steering wheel travel, the E.P.A is not correct. The servo will
force and you will hear it «whistle». Adjustment: Move the servo all the way
in one direction to the stop and then use the E.P.A. adjustment to reduce the
servo travel until it stops whistling. It is important to have the dual rate
at 100% during this operation as it works like trim and sub trim.

CAUTION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
PRECAUTIONS
! Check the receiver, servos, and battery connectors, to be sure they are
firmly connected. If a connector is not fully insert ed, vibration may cause
the connector to work loose while the model is operating. This will result in
loss of control.
! Operate each servo horn over its full stroke and check to see that the
linkage does not bind or is not too loose. Excessive force applied to the
servo horn by binding or poor installation may lead to servo problems and
result in loss of control.
! Electric Cars and Boats : Isolate the receiver from vibration by
attaching to the chassis or mounting plate with thick double sided tape. Gas
Powered Cars and Boats : Isolate the receiver from vibration by wrapping it in
foam rubber or similar type cushioning material. Protect the unit from water
damage by placing it in a plastic bag or waterproof radio box. The receiver
contains precision electronic parts. These parts are vulnerable to vibration
and shock. Any contact with moisture (water or condensation) may cause
receiver malfunction and loss of control.
! Keep all devices that emit high frequency noise, such as motors,
batteries, and wiring that handles heavy current loads, at least 1/2 inch away
from the receiver and the receiver antenna. High frequency noise will cause a
decrease in operating range and could cause loss of control.
! Install electronic speed control heat sinks as well as other components
that conduct electricity so they can not come in contact with aluminium,
carbon fibre or other materials that conduct electricity. If, for example, the
speed control came loose while the model was running and touched an aluminium
chassis, a short circuit may occur that would cause irreparable damage to the
system as well as loss of control.
! Noise suppression capacitors should be installed on almost all motors.
If the proper capacitors are not installed, high frequency noise will reduce
range and cause loss of control along with various other problems.
! Inspect all linkage installations and any point where metal could come
in contact with other metal parts. Make sure these parts do not touch other
metal parts under vibration. Should a linkage or other metal parts come in
contact with other metal parts under vibration, the high frequency noise
generated by this contact will cause interference and possible loss of
control.
! Do Not disassemble any part of this system that is not specified in the
instruction manual. Corally will not be responsible for any damage due to
improper disassembly of any part of the radio control system.
