IMPORTANT – READ THIS BEFORE RUNNING

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury and property damage, operate all remotely controlled models in a responsive manner as outlined below.
R/C car models can exceed speeds of 40km/h (25mph), and cannot be stopped quickly.

1. Never run R/C models on the street or highways, as it could cause or contribute to serious traffic accidents.
2. Never run an R/C model near people or animals, nor use people or animals as obstacles when operation R/C vehicles.
3. It is advisable to use screwdrivers dedicated to Rc hobby to avoid damaging your screw heads.
4. Running R/C models into furniture or other inanimate objects will cause damage to the objects and the R/C models.

CAUTION DURING OPERATIONS
When the R/C model is in operation, dot not touch any of its moving parts, such as drive shafts, wheels, as the rotating parts can cause serious injury.

1. The vehicle motor gets very hot during running and could cause burns if touched.
2. Make sure that no one else is using the same frequency as yours in your running area. Using the same frequency at the same time, whether is driving, flying or sailing, can cause loss of control of the R/C models, resulting in serious accidents.
3. Properly connect plugs. To prevent electrical shock and/or damage to the product resulting from a short-circuit; insulate connections with heat shrink tubing or electrical tape. Before running vehicle, check that battery wiring and plugs are not so loose as to drag on the ground. Properly secure cables using electrical tape or nylon tie-wraps.
4. Stiff rotation of gears, shafts, joints and wheels can burn out the motor. It’s recommended to check proper joint and shaft rotation by using one 1,5V dry cell during assembly of the model. A worn motor will overheat and result in a short running time. Replace a worn out motor as soon as possible.
5. R/C models will run out of control when either the receiver or transmitter battery voltage drops off. Stop the vehicle immediately when the car starts to show down to prevent it from running out of control.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Follow the outlined rules for safe radio control operation.
Avoid running the car in crowed area and near small children.
Make sure that no one else is using the same frequency in your running area. Using the same frequency at the same time can cause serious accidents, whether it’s driving, flying or sailing.
Avoid running in standing water and rain. If R/C unit, motor, or battery get wet, clean and dry throughly in a dry shaded area.
R/C operating procedures

1. Make sure the transmitter controls and trims are in neutral. Switch on transmitter.
2. Switch on receiver.
3. Inspect operation using transmitter before running.
4. Adjust steering servo and trim so that the model runs straigHT-with transmitter in neutral.
5. Reverse sequence to shut down after running.
6. Make sure to disconnect/remove all batteries.
7. After each use, it is necessary to clean your car, to check its general condition and to check the tightness of the screws. If you have been driving on sandy ground, it is necessary to clean your car after each use and to check the condition of the main gear and motor pinion. If you drive in wet weather, it is necessary to dry your vehicle and apply lubricant (Lub In type) to the visible mechanical parts and other metal parts.
8. Store the car and batteries separately when not in use.
   If you have any doubts or problems, please do not hesitate to contact your dealer. Resellers are specialists who can bring you all their experience to help you make the most of this hobby.

For obvious reasons of security, the KONECT KT3X radio system is equipped with an automatic power shut down of the receiver when the user turns the transmitter
On while turning the steering wheel or touching the throttle trigger. Consequently on ignition, the vehicle won’t (for example) unintentionally accelerate. The transmitter Led flashes red & green, and the user cannot use it anymore. Then it must be turned Off and On without touching anything else.

Pushing forward throttle trigger the model moves backward while pulling back, the model moves forward.
3 Neutral settings (Trim)
KT3X features trimming steering.
Steering Trim Dial: Adjust the neutral position of steering servo when the wheels are straight ahead.
4 Steering End Point Adjustment
Steering Dual Rate enables to adjust the same maximum steering angle of servo on both sides (Left and Right) when model makes steering. The Steering Dual Rate affects the sensitivity of servo. Rotate clockwise = increase maximum steering angle; rotate counterclockwise = reduce maximum steering angle.
The minimum adjustment of Dual Rate (counterclockwise to the max) makes a zero steering angle.
5 Power adjustment
The power of the throttle can be adjusted using the “SPEED” potentiometer. The further the cursor is turned clockwise, the faster the car will go.
It is therefore possible, thanks to this slider, to take advantage of a power range of the car from 0% to 100%. ****

BEGIN TO USE

1. Connect the ESC, motor, receiver, battery and servo according to the following diagram “+” and “-” wires of the ESC are connected to the battery pack. WARNING: The incorrect polarity will damage the ESC immediately.
   The control cable of the ESC (trio wires with black, red and white color) is connected to the throttle channel of the receiver (Usually CH2).
   The “Motor +” and “Motor –” wires are connected to ESC without any order. If the motor runs in the opposite direction, please swap these two wire connections.

2. Set the Transmitter
   Please set the “D/R”, “EPA” and “ATL” to 100% for throttle channel (for transmitter without LCD, please turn the knobs to the maximum value), and set the “TRIM” of the throttle channel to 0 (for transmitter without LCD, please turn the TRIM knob to its neutral position).
   For Futaba TM and the similar transmitters, the direction of throttle channel shall be set to “REV”, while other radio systems shall be set to “NOR”.
   The “Fail Save” function of the radio system is strongly recommended to be activated. Please make sure that the motor can be stopped when the “Fail Save” happens.

3. Throttle Range Setting (Throttle Range Calibration)
   In order to make the ESC match the throttle range of different transmitters, the calibration of the ESC is necessary.
   To calibrate the ESC, please turn on the transmitter, keep throttle stick at its neutral position, wait for 3 seconds to let the ESC execute self-test and automatic throttle calibration. When the ESC is ready to run, a long beep sound is emitted from the motor.
   Note: Please calibrate the throttle range again when using a new transmitter or changing the settings of the neutral position of throttle channel, D/R, ATV, ATL or EPA parameters, otherwise the ESC may not work properly.

BEEP SOUND AND LED STATUS

∞ 1 short Beep: The battery is NiMH/NiCd
∞ 2 short Beeps: The battery is 2S Lipo
∞ 3 short Beeps: The battery is 3S Lipo
∞ 1 long Beep: Self-test and throttle calibration is OK, the ESC is ready to run| ∞ When the throttle stick is in neutral range, red LED is off
∞ Forward, brake or reverse at partial throttle, red LED blinks
∞ Forward, brake or reverse at full throttle, red LED is solid

THROTTLE

SET THE ESC

PROTECTION FUNCTIONS

1. LOW VOLTAGE CUT-OFF PROTECTION: If the voltage of battery pack is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the ESC will enter the protection mode.
   When the car stops, the red LED blinks to indicate the low voltage cut-off protection has been activated. 2S Lipo| 3S Lipo| 5-9 cells NiMH
   ---|---|---
   Output reduces 50% at 6.5V
   Output cuts off at 6.0V, cannot be recovered| Output reduces 50% at 9.75V
   Output cuts off at 9.0V, cannot be recovered| Output reduces 50% at 4.5V
   Output cuts off at 4.0V, cannot be recovered

2. OVER-HEAT PROTECTION: When the internal temperature of the ESC is higher than a factory preset threshold for 5 seconds, the ESC will reduce and cut off the output power.
When the car stops, the red LED blinks to indicate the over-heat protection has been activated. If the ESC cools down to 80 Celsius degrees, the output power is recovered to normal state.
3. THROTTLE SIGNAL LOSS PROTECTION: The ESC will cut off the output power if the throttle signal has been lost for 0.1 second.
