HRS-3.1 BINDING AND FAIL SAFE SETTING

Binding the Transmitter and Receiver:

The process of allowing communication to occur between a 2.4GHz transmitter and receiver is called “binding” (sometimes referred to as “matching” or “pairing”). The radio system included with your product comes pre-confi gured and bound from the factory. In the event your system loses binding, one of the components has been replaced, you will need to bind the transmitter and receiver.

Follow the below steps for binding your radio system. Always ensure both transmitter and receiver batteries are fully charged or new when performing this process for best results.

NOTE: AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION, PERFORM THE BINDING PROCESS WITH THE VEHICLE’S WHEELS OFF THE GROUND.

1. With the transmitter in close proximity but not closer than 1ft to the receiver, turn on the transmitter fi rst, then the vehicle. The

LED on the receiver will blink, indicating that the receiver is not bound to a transmitter that is on.

2. With the transmitter OFF, hold the REV/BIND button and turn the power ON to put the transmitter into binding mode.

3. Push the button on the receiver once, the LED will start to blink faster indicating it is searching for a transmitter to bind with.

The transmitter will automatically search and bind to the receiver. This may take up to 10 seconds.

4. Once the transmitter and receiver are bound together, the receiver’s LED will turn solid red. If the receiver’s LED does not turn solid red, turn off both the transmitter and receiver and repeat steps 1-2.

5. Once binding is complete, turn the power off and back on to both the transmitter and receiver.

6. Ensure normal operation of throttle and steering.

a. If binding to a different vehicle you may need to reverse the steering channel on your transmitter to work properly.

7. If you experience anything other than normal operation, repeat the process.

2.4 GHz Fail-Safe Adjustment:

NOTE: AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION, PERFORM THE FAIL-SAFE ADJUSTMENTS WITH THE VE-

HICLE’S WHEELS OFF THE GROUND.

1. Turn the transmitter and receiver ON and move the throttle trigger to the desired position.

2. Press the Fail-Safe button for 5 seconds to program the throttle Fail-Safe setting.It is recommended and common to set the throttle Fail-Safe as Full Brake, i.e. the throttle trigger is pressed completely forward applying full brakes. This ensures that if the receiver cannot receive a signal from the transmitter, the servos or ESC will default to full brake causing the vehicle to stop.

a. NOTE: WITH REVERSE MODE ACTIVE IN THE ESC, THE VEHICLE MAY GO INTO REVERSE THROTTLE INSTEAD OF BRAKE

WHEN THE TRIGGER IS PRESSED FORWARD. THIS IS THE CORRECT BEHAVIOUR AND SETTING POSITION. TO PREVENT

WHEELS FROM TURING LIKE THIS, SIMPLY APPLY A LITTLE FORWARD THROTTLE, THEN FULL BRAKES, THEN CON-

TINUE WITH THE FAIL-SAFE SETTING PROCEDURE.

3. To test the Fail-Safe settings, turn the transmitter off while the receiver is on. The servo/ESC will default to its programmed positions and the motor should not spin (assuming you have set the fail-safe to full brake).

HRS-3.1 CONNECTION AND CONFIGURATION...

Receiver, ESC and Servo Connections:

1. Channel 1: Steering Servo

2. Channel 2: ESC (Throttle/Brake)

Note: An easy way to remember this is 1 to turn, 2 to burn

( as in burn-out ).

Digital Trim Settings:

• Steering Trim

› Press the “ST+” or “ST-“ button to adjust the neutral position of the steering. A long “beep” will sound

› Once the trim setting reaches the limit, a long steady “beep” will sound

» Depending on your servo confi guration,

“ST+” or “ST-“ will move the servo either left or right. Use either “ST+” or ST-“ to ensure

Generic wiring diagram.

the vehicle can track straight with no steering input

• Throttle Trim

› Press the “TH+” or “TH-“ button to adjust the neutral position of the throttle. A long beep will sound

› Once the value reaches the limit, a long steady “beep” will sound

» The throttle should be trimmed so the vehicle is stationary when no throttle input is applied

Transmitter Model Backup:

The data for every function and model programmed to the transmitter is stored in a memory chip that does not require battery backup. The transmitter model data is automatically backed up, and is not lost during battery replacement.

Channel Reverse (REV):

The channel reverse function reverses the direction of operation of the servos or ESC’s relative to the transmitter steering and throttle inputs. This function would be used if, for example, turning the transmitter steering wheel right resulted in the model turning left and vice versa. Some ESC’s require that the throttle channel be reversed in order to program them properly.

NOTE: AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION, PERFORM THE CHANNEL REVERSE ADJUSTMENTS WITH THE MOTOR UNPLUGGED FROM

THE ESC (CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW THE WIRES TO TOUCH AFTER BEING DISCONNECTED WHILE PERFORMING THIS SETUP

PROCEDURE) AND THE WHEELS OFF THE GROUND.

• Steering Reverse:

› Turn the steering wheel completely to the left (or right) and press the “REV” button for at least 2 seconds to reverse the

Steering (ST) channel.

› The transmitter will beep once for confi rmation.

• Throttle Reverse:

› Pull the throttle trigger completely to full throttle (or push forward for full brake) and press the “REV” button for at least 2 seconds to reverse the Throttle (TH) channel.

› The transmitter will beep once for confi rmation.

Steering Dual-Rate (ST D/R):

Steering dual-rate allows on-the-fl y end point adjustments to both sides (left and right) of the steering servo.

• The default value is 100% of the maximum servo travel. The dual-rate can be set from 20% to 100%.

› To increase the dual-rate, press the “DR+” button.

› To decrease the dual-rate, press the “DR-“ button.

End Point Adjustment:

• Steering End Point Adjustment (EPA)

› Use this function to adjust the left and/or right steering angle relative to the steering wheel position.

› CAUTION: BE CAREFUL TO NOT OVER-EXTEND THE STEERING THROW AS IT CAN CAUSE YOUR SERVO TO OVER-WORK

AND OVER-HEAT.

› Steering-Left Side Adjustment:

» Turn the steering wheel completely to the left and use the “ST+” or “ST-“ buttons to adjust the steering angle to the desired location.

› Steering-Right Side Adjustment:

» Turn the steering wheel completely to the right and use the “ST+” or “ST-“ buttons to adjust the steering angle to the desired location.

› Throttle Adjustment:

» Pull the throttle trigger completely to full throttle and use the “TH+” or “TH-“ buttons to adjust the throttle end point to the desired location.

› Brake Adjustment:

» Push the trigger forward to full brake and use the “TH+” or “TH-“ to adjust the brake end point accordingly.

Power Alarm:

• Idle and Low-Battery Alarm

› When the steering wheel, throttle trigger, or any button is not operated for 10 minutes while the transmitter is on, a slow beeping alarm will sound to indicate that there has been no action and the power should be turned off and back on to reset the transmitter alarm.

• Low Battery Voltage Alarm

› If the transmitter battery voltage drops to 4.5V or less, a slow beeping alarm sounds and the power LED light will blink.

Battery Replacement:

WARNING: Do not attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries

NOTE: Load the four AA batteries in accordance with the polarity marking on the battery holder.

1. Remove the battery cover from the transmitter

2. Remove the old batteries a. NOTE: Never mix brands or old/new batteries. b. Always be sure to be responsible and protect the environment when disposing batteries. Most local hobby dealers provide a

FREE battery disposal service.

3. Insert the four new AA batteries according to the polarity markings on the battery holder.

a. If using rechargeable batteries, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s care and use instructions.

b. Rechargeable batteries must be removed from transmitter before charging.

4. Replace the battery cover.

5. Slide the Power switch to the ON position. If the voltage is low, the low battery alarm will sound. If the low battery alarm sounds, check that the batteries are properly inserted and are making suffi cient contact.

a. Low Battery Alarm.

i. An alarm will sound if the transmitter voltage drops below 4.5V. This alarm is meant as a safety feature only. The transmitter should not be operated below 4.5V. If the low battery alarm sounds, stop using your model immediately and turn off both the model’s receiver and the transmitter. Replace the transmitter batteries immediately with fresh AA batteries to prevent loss of control of your model.

b. Always check the voltage of the transmitter before use.

6. Always be sure to insert the batteries correctly according to the polarity markings, or the transmitter may be damaged.

7. When the transmitter will not be used for 1 week or more, remove the batteries to prevent damage from leaks and corrosion.

Setting the ESC:

The ESC in your Invictus 10MT is pre-programmed to work best with the HRS-3.1 radio system. Use with another radio system may not provide consistent performance and is not recommended for beginners. For detailed selup information refer to the Reaktor brushless setup section of this manual.

Standard operation:

• When looking at the face of the transmitter wheel:

› Turning the top of the transmitter wheel to the left from center makes the wheels on the vehicle turn LEFT.

› Turning the top of the transmitter wheel to the right from center makes the wheels on the vehicle turn RIGHT.

» When driving your vehicle for the fi rst time, take care and notice the direction the car turns when driving away from you vs. towards you. It is best to learn how things work when driving away from your position, but don’t go too far!

• Pulling the transmitter trigger back towards the handle will make the vehicle accelerate forward.

› If instead the tires turn backwards you will need to disconnect and swap 2 wires going to your motor. Any two will do to reverse the motor direction.

• Pushing the transmitter trigger forward away from the handle will have the following affects depending on the location of the trigger prior to pushing it forward.

› From a stop at neutral: the vehicle will travel in reverse.

› From pulled back: the vehicle will apply brakes to slow the speed.

» A second push forward of the trigger will apply brakes again

HRS-3.1 STANDARD OPERATION

» A second push forward on the trigger will apply reverse throttle.

» WARNING: Causing the vehicle to make quick transi-

tions from forward/reverse motion to the opposite direction using the throttle control can cause damage to your vehicle and electronics and will void the warranty.

TURN LEFT TURN RIGHT

Using your transmitter for the fi rst time:

1. Turn the transmitter ON and ensure the LED is lit SOLID and it is

not giving an audible alarm indicating the batteries are supplying adequate voltage for proper operation.

2. Ensure the battery in your vehicle is secured, charged and plugged in with proper polarity and turn your vehicle ON.

3. Checking and setting the throttle trim.

a. If the wheels spin in a forward direction when the trigger is

[PULL]

FORWARD

[PUSH]

REVERSE in the neutral position, turn down the trim until the motor stops by pressing the TH- button, repeatedly if necessary.

THROTTLE

THROTTLE b. If the wheels spin in a reverse direction when the trigger is in the neutral position, turn up the trim until the motor stops by pressing the TH+ button, repeatedly if necessary.

c. There will be a “dead band” area where the trim can be adjusted a slight amount in either direction and the wheels will not begin to move. It is ideal to have the trim set in the middle of this “dead band”.

4. Setting the steering trim.

a. With your vehicle and transmitter turned on (and properly responding to transmitter inputs), set the vehicle down on the ground and slowly accelerate in a direction directly away from you. If the vehicle veers slightly either to the left or right, adjust the steering trim by pressing either the ST- (more left) or ST+ (more right) buttons, repeatedly if necessary.

b. Reset the vehicle position and re-test; adjust the trim as needed until the vehicle travels in a straight line while the transmitter wheel remains at center location (“hands-off”).

...REAKTOR ESC OVERVIEW AND CALIBRATION...

Your ESC has been pre-installed at the factory but before using your vehicle each time it is good to double check the wiring for damage or loose connections to ensure everything is in working order before use. Refere to the diagram below to check the connections of your electronics system. Some brushless motors such as the Reaktor included with your vehicle use only black wires, this is okay.

On sensorless brushless systems the motor will change operating direction when any two of the motor wires are swapped.

The Reaktor ESC is programmed to communicate with you, letting you know its status.

• LED Status:

› In normal use, if the throttle trigger is in the neutral range, neither the red LED nor the green LED light up.

› The red LED lights when the car is run forward or backward and it will fl ash quickly when the car is braking.

› The green LED lights when the throttle trigger is moved to the full throttle position.

• Alert Tones:

› Input voltage abnormal alert tone: The ESC begins to check the input voltage when power on, if it is out of the normal range, such an alert tone will be emitted: “beepbeep-, beep-beep-, beep-beep-” (There is 1 second time interval between every “beep-beep-” tone).

› Throttle signal abnormal alert tone: When the ESC can’t detect the normal throttle signal, such an alert tone will be emitted:

“beep-, beep-, beep-” (There is 2 seconds time interval between every “beep-” tone).

• Protection Functions:

› Low voltage cut-off protection: If the voltage of a Lipo battery pack is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the ESC will cut of the output power. Please note that the ESC cannot be restarted if the voltage of each Lipo cell is lower than 3.5V.

» For NiMH battery packs, if the voltage of the whole NiMH battery pack is higher than 9.0V but lower than 12V, it will be considered as a 3S Lipo; If it is lower than 9.0V, it will be considered as a 2S Lipo. For example, if the NiMH battery pack is 8.0V, and the threshold is set to 2.6V/Cell, it is considered as a 2S Lipo, and the low-voltage cut-off threshold for this

NiMH battery pack is 2.6*2=5.2V.

› Over-heat protection: When the temperature of the ESC is over 105 degrees Celcius for 5 seconds, the ESC will cut off the output power.

› Throttle signal loss protection: The ESC will cut off the output power if the throttle signal is lost for 0.2 second.

Throttle range calibration:

Hold your transmitter approx 1ft away while setting.

1. Turn Transmitter ON fi rst (transmitter should alwasy be on if

ESC is ON.

2. Ensure your Throttle channel (Ch. 2) on your transmitter is set to “Reverse”.

3. Adjust both Throttle and Reverse/Brake EPA settings to

100%.

4. With the ESC OFF, press and hold the Set button near the switch and turn the ESC ON to enter setup mode. Release the button as soon as the LED begins to fl ash.

5. Without touching the trigger, press button to set the neutral position, GREEN LED will fl ash 1 time.

6. Pull/hold full throttle, press the button again, release the trigger, GREEN LED will fl ash 2 times.

7. Push/hold full brake/reverse, press the button again, GREEN

LED will fl ash 3 times. Release trigger.

8. Switch ESC OFF and back ON to complete setup.

9. Check the ESC operation to ensure forward throttle is actually forward, if not, switch any two of the motor wires and re-check. Then repeat steps 3-8.

...REAKTOR ESC PROGRAMMING CONTINUED...

Programming your ESC:

The Radient Reaktor is a programmable ESC. Although the default settings should work well for most users, these settings exist so that you can fi ne tune the performance of your ESC to your experience and components. It’s various programmable parameters can be adjusted either by interfacing with the ESC directly button presses and counting LED fl ashes, or via the optional Reaktor Program

Box (RDNA0031) which includes a digital readout of the settings for easier interpretation and faster setup. There are 6 programmable items for your consideration, below are descriptions of each Item and following is the table and programming instructions for choosing your settings should you choose to change from default (highlighted in BOLD text).

NOTE: The most important of these settings is the Low Voltage Cut-Off Threshold (Item 3). Please read the description and usage scenarios below to better understand how to use this feature.

Item 1: Running Mode:

1. Forward/Brake: This setting is considered as “Race” mode where the reverse function is disabled.

2. Forward/Reverse-Brake: This setting is useful for normal operation since it allows for using reverse throttle to back out of a stuck situation. a. WARNING: switching from REVERSE to FORWARD throttle position quickly will cause excess load on the electronics

and drivetrain of your vehcile. It is recommended to come to a stop before changing REVERSE/FORWARD direction.

Item 2: Drag Brake Force (Automatic Brake):

1. 0%: This setting allows the vehicle to continue to roll after letting off throttle without applying automatic-brake

2. 5%: Adding some drag brake will make the vehicle a little easier to control, especially when driving on a closed circuit type course, helping you to slow down and make turns easeir.

3. 10%: Add more until you fi nd the right balance of assistance with slowing down while still being able to maintain good corner speed without upsetting the vehicle.

4. 15%

5. 20%

6. 25%

7. 30%

8. 40%

Item 3: Low Voltage Cut-Off (LVC) Threshold:

The Reaktor ESC has 6 built in LVC options. It is essential that you use the proper LVC setting for the type of battery that your are useing to achieve the optimal performance and safest operation from your ESC/Motor/Battery. This setting should be chosen based on the number and type of cells you are using. For LiPo batteries we recommend setting LVC to #5, using a setting lower than this may cause over discharge of some batteries and cause damage to your battery, which could lead to a fi re.

• When running a LiPo battery it is required to change the included battery connector to a high current connector. We

recommend W.S. Deans Ultra-Plugs (WSD1300) available at your local hobby dealer. Using the supplied connector with LiPo batteries will cause the connector to over-heat and possibly melt which could lead to the battery experiencing a dead-short and causing fi re. It is critical that the connector be changed and that you do not try to use an adapter in this application. You can purchase an adapter from Ultra-Plug (F) to Tamiya style (F) from your local hobby dealer which will allow you to continue to use your included Helion battery after you have changed your main power connector.

• When running a LiPo battery it is also recommended to run the optional (RDNA0026) motor heat sink with cooling

fan to keep your motor and ESC running at lower temperatures.

1. No Protection: ONLY to be used with NiMH or NiCd type batteries. Since your vehicle comes equipped with an 8 cell NiMH battery, we have set this mode as the default. The ESC will run as long as possible, draining all possible energy from the batteries and evenutally your vehicle will cease to function poperly.

a. When you notice the operation of your vehicle change, it is time to STOP running and re-charge your battery.

b. If you are running your vehicle and notice a sudden decrease in power, your ESC has detected battery voltage that is lower than what should be safely run without causing damage to your battery or electronic equipment. If you are using NiMH batteries while this happens and you have only been running for a very short time, it is very likely that you are mistakenly using one of the below LVC modes.

2. 2.6V/Cell: This setting will cause the ESC to enter LVC protection mode when the battery voltage is calculated at the selected voltage or less for more than 2 seconds. Since the setting is “per cell” this means that if you are running a 2 cell battery, the voltage protection will activate relative to 2 x 2.6V = 5.2V. This setting is primarily for use with LiFe type batteries as the lower end of LVC settings. DO NOT USE THIS SETTING WITH LIPO BATTERIES.

3. 2.8V/Cell: This setting would be the starting point for using LiFe type batteries and is not recommended for LiPo batteries.

4. 3.0V/Cell: This setting is only recommended for use with extremely high quality and highly durable LiPo batteries suitable for

...REAKTOR ESC PROGRAMMING CONTINUED...

competition racing. Using a setting this low with a LiPo battery may cause excessive “wear and tear” on your batteries, shortening their lifespan.

5. 3.2V/Cell: This setting is recommended as the default for running average grade LiPo batteries. If your batteries are relatively old it is recommended to use setting 6 instead.

6. 3.4V/Cell: This setting can be used with any LiPo battery and will provide the “safest” discharge level for your batteries however some lower quality batteries do not sustain their voltage under heavy load and will cause premature LVC activation. Starting here is a good choice if you are unsure or just want to be extra cautious.

Item 4: Start Mode/Punch (Higher value is more aggressive):

The Reaktor ESC has 4 “punch” profi les that allow you to tune the initial power output of the ESC to suit your driving, vehicle, and the surface. You will typically want a lower punch setting when the surface has less traction. To get the optimal performance out of

LiPo batteries, on high traction sufaces, setting 4 is recommended.

1. Level 1 (70%): This setting will provide the smoothest throttle feel and least wheel spin.

2. Level 2 (80%)

3. Level 3 (90%): This is the highest setting that should be used with high performance NiMH batteries such as those included with your vehicle.

4. Level 4 (100%): This setting is recommended for use with LiPo batteries only and allows you to get the maximum acceleration from your power system. Choosing a setting higher than #3 for use with NiMH batteries will cause inconsistent operation of your

ESC, including possible momentary power loss.

Item 5: Maximum Brake Force:

The Reaktor ESC has 4 maximum brake force settings allwowing you to tune your brakes for different driving surfaces. This setting works in conjunction with the brake EPA setting on your transmitter which can still be used to fi ne tune the braking force, however this setting affects the initial brake force also. Since your vehicle is using a high performance brushless motor which has great braking effi ciency already, we have reduced the setting to #3. On some surfaces you may still fi nd this setting to be too high and fi nd that under heavy braking with 4wd vehicles the rear tires may come off the ground. This is a very unstable situation and should be avoided at all costs. If this happnes, reduce the maximum braking force to a lower setting. If however you are unable to stop and the lack of deceleration is not due to wheel slipping, you can increase the braking force.

WARNING: Be sure to check your maximum brake settings by driving from full throttle to full hard brake in an open area.

If the rear tires come off the ground causing a front fl ip, the vehicle will tumble out of control and could cause personal or property damage.

1. 25%: This is the lowest setting and should only be used when driving with slow motors and on loose (low traction) surfaces.

2. 50%: It is not recommended to go below this setting on asphault surfaces as the stopping power may not be enough to safely slow your vehicle.

3. 75%: This is the default setting we feel will provide you the best starting point for many different levels of tration on various surfaces. Remember it is extremely important to only drive a vehicle as fast as you can safely stop it. If the vehicle hits something or someone it can cuase serious injury.

4. 100%: This setting is only recommended if you are running a slotted type motor, running this with a slotless style motor combined with a 4wd vehicle will likely cause front fl ips thus a loss of control of your vehicle.

Reset to Factory Defaults:

At any time when the throttle is located in neutral zone (except in the throttle calibration or programming mode), hold the “SET” key for over 3 seconds, the red LED and green LED will fl ash at the same time , which means each programmable item has be reset to its default value.

Audible/Visual Programming Alerts:

In dirty conditions or with various installations scenarios, visibility of the LED’s may be obstructed. To assist with setting the ESC parameters you will also be able to hear audible beeps from the motor that will indicate the value of fl ashes the LED is transmitting.

To help interpret the beeps and fl ashes we use a long time fl ash and long “Beep---” tone to represent number “5”, so it is easy to identify the higher quantity of fl ashes/beeps. This applies to both the programming parameter selection and also the value of each programmable item.

• For example, if the LED fl ashes as the following:

› “A long time fl ash” (Motor sounds “B---”) = the No. 5 item

› “A long time fl ash + a short time fl ash” (Motor sounds “B---B”) = the No. 6 item

› “A long time fl ash + 2 short times fl ash” (Motor sounds “B---BB”) = the No. 7 item

› “A long time fl ash + 3 short times fl ash” (Motor sounds “B---BBB”) = the No. 8 item

› “A long time fl ash + 4 short times fl ash” (Motor sounds “B---BBBB”) = the No. 9 item.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES FOR YOUR REAKTOR BRUSHLESS SYSTEM

1. To assist with programming your ESC we offer an LED based program box that when connected will give a digital readout of the current Item being programmed and the value. It will also allow you to modify these settings right on the box. You can purchase this program box at your local hobby dealer as part number RDNA0032. The program box communicates with the ESC through the fan port. You must disconnect the fan and plug in the program box. Simply plug in the program box and program with normal sequence but using box instead of counting fl ashes and beeps. Remember to plug the fan back in when you are done.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES FOR YOUR REAKTOR BRUSHLESS SYSTEM

2. Also offered is a 12V fan (RDNA0034). Though the default fan installed on the ESC will work with a 3s

LiPo connected, it is recommended that the fan be changed out to a 12V version for extend use with

3s LiPo to prevent premature failure. Another option would be to manually re-wire the fan to plug into the receiver. Note when installing the fan, the orientation is critical for proper cooling. Refer to the diagram to the right for installation orientation.

NOTE: If you are planning to run in a lot of water, it is recommended to disconnect the fan from the ESC. Running the fan in water will cause excess load on the fan and ESC and may cause permanent damage to the ESC and fan.

ADJUSTING AND TUNING YOUR INVICTUS 10M

The Invictus 10MT has been engineered with some available tuning options listed here for reference. The default confi guration has been chosen to provide what we feel is the most enjoyable experience for most operating conditions. However we do encourage experimentation and testing as that’s where the real fun begins!

Ride height adjustment: It is possible to adjust the ride height of your Invictus 10MT by installing and or removing adjustment clips located directly above the shock springs.

• Adding more clips will raise the ride height of the vehicle and if done excessively may decrease stability.

• Removing clips will lower the ride height and may cause the chassis to drag on the ground.

• It is ideal to have the drive shafts above level but still allow the shocks to extend when you lift the truck while the vehicle is sitting on a fl at surface with the body installed. Add or remove clips to achieve the desired ride height.

Upper Shock Position: There are two shock installation locations for the top mounting location of the shock towers. The default position is outside (located farther from the centerline of the chassis). Moving the shock mounting location to the inner location will result in a slightly less responsive feel on the front or rear of the vehicle but it will be a little more stable.

Lower Shock Position: There are two shock installation locations for the lower mounting location of the shocks in the suspension arm. The default location is inside. Moving the shocks to the outside location will result in a slightly less responsive feel on the front or rear of the vehicle but become a little more stable. This change will also decrease the vehicle’s articulation and you will notice less body roll. Always check and adjust, if necessary, the ride height of your vehicle after moving the shock mounting locations.

Battery mounting: Your vehicle comes equipped with and default mount setting for a 8-Cell NiMH hump battery. It is also possible to fi t lower cell count NiMH batteries and also 2-3s LiPo batteries (we highly recommend hard cased batteries that resist wear).

Ensure the foam block is in place to keep the battery pack from changing position in the battery tray.

Body Mount Height: The body mounts are capable of vertical adjustment with many height options available. The default setting allows for the lowest body position while maintaining component clearance. Adjust the body mounts to achieve a desired look, we recommend the lowest possible mounting for best performance.

...GENERAL CARE AND MAINTENANCE CONTINUED...

use of failed components can cause more unnecessary damage to your product. Always remember to use genuine replacement parts from your local hobby dealer. Below is a list of items for inspection. Inspection should not be limited to this list; if you notice any problem, listed or not, it is recommended to give it proper attention.

1. Electronics: Although the ESC and servo included in your vehicle are waterproof the receiver is not, however it is contained in a water resistant box. It is recommended that you avoid submersion of the vehicle however light running in puddles and light rain should not be damaging. If you plan to run for extended periods of time in light or heavy rain It is recommended to secure the receiver in an additional waterproof membrane. Since the Helion HRS-3.1 receiver is a micro size receiver, fi tting it into a balloon is fairly easy. Simply insert the receiver with connected wiring into a balloon and secure the balloon around the wires with an additional rubber band as close to the receiver as possible, allowing the most exposure of the antenna as possible.

2. Antenna: To achieve full operating range with your radio system, it is critical that the receiver antenna be installed properly and undamaged.

a. Inspect any exposed antenna for cuts or abrasions.

b. Ensure there are no kinks in the antenna or antenna tube.

c. Never fold the end of the antenna over the tube, this will reduce the range and damage the antenna.

d. Ensure the antenna is not being pinched by the set screw that holds the antenna tube in place.

3. Gears: Periodically remove the gear cover to clearly inspect the gears and ensure there is no debris in the gear compartment.

a. Proper gear mesh setting is crucial for proper operation and life of gears in your product. It is important to have the pinion gear (attached to motor) as close to the spur gear (attached to drive shaft) as possible yet while providing a minimal amount of backlash. Backlash is the rotation one gear has to make before contacting the other. Having the gear mesh set too tight will cause excess load on the electrical components and may cause premature failure. Having gear mesh set too loose will cause excess wear and possible skipping of teeth during operation thus causing excess wear and premature failure.

b. Checking the gear mesh.

i. Remove the spur gear cover.

ii. Check how much movement is allowed of the spur gear before the pinion gear moves (this is purely by feel, not visual).

Check this movement in multiple places by rotating the spur gear approximately 1/6 rotation and checking again.

iii. If the spur gear is allowed to move more than a very small amount, or if it there is no backlash, the gear mesh must be adjusted. If there is a lot of movement, it is recommended to attempt to tighten the mesh. Attempted adjustment should only improve the situation; if the mesh was correct to begin with, you will know what that feels like, and if it wasn’t correct, it will be when you are done after following these procedures.

iv. Setting the gear mesh.

01). Loosen the top screw securing the motor plate to the motor mount, only enough to allow the plate to move.

Check and ensure there is no debris in the gears affecting the mesh.

02). Slide the top of the motor plate away from the center of the chassis, insert a strip of notebook paper between the pinion and spur gear, then slide the motor plate back until there is no backlash. You will have to push relatively hard to ensure the paper is pressed all the way into the teeth.

03). Hold the motor snugly in position while retightening the screw.

04). Rotate the spur gear to feed the paper out of the mesh, re-check the gear mesh and adjust again if necessary.

v. Re-install the spur gear cover.

WARNING: Never operate your vehicle with the spur gear cover removed. Severe injury, damage to electrical components, and excessive wear and tear on drivetrain may result.

4. Shocks: Periodically inspect the shocks for smooth motion, leaking oil and dirt residue build up around the shaft.

a. Do not allow dirt to build up around the shock shaft and bottom of the shock. Doing so will reduce the life of the shock and cause a shock to leak oil. Be sure to clean the shocks regularly with a clean and dry soft bristle brush and/or rag.

b. Signs to look out for determining if your shock needs to be maintained or rebuilt.

i. Oil around the shaft means the oil leaked from inside and needs to be replaced.

ii. Persistent oil around the shock shaft or lower portion of the shock typically points to damaged O-rings which will need replacing. See your local hobby dealer for replacement parts.

iii. Refi lling your shocks:

01). Remove shock from vehicle, remove spring and top cap.

02). With shock shaft extended, add oil to top of body (use only 100% silicone oil).

03). Slowly compress the shock shaft 50% of travel using a towel or paper napkin to clean up overfl owed oil.

04). Slowly reinstall the shock cap and check for free motion of shock.

05). It is normal for the shock to rebound (with the spring removed) after full compression and release.

iv. Replacing the O-rings:

...GENERAL CARE AND MAINTENANCE CONTINUED

01). Disassemble shock and remove shaft from the body.

02). Carefully remove lower cap by unscrewing from the shock body.

03). Remove the O-rings and spacer and replace with genuine replacement parts.

04). Re-assemble the shock following the refi lling instructions above.

5. Tires and wheels: a. Inspect the tires to ensure they are properly glued to the wheels. The tires on your vehicle come pre-glued from the factory; however after running your vehicle it is possible for the glue to come loose in some areas.

i. To reattach the tire to the wheel, use hobby grade Cyanoacrylate (CA) glue and apply small amounts (one drop at a time) between the tire and wheel. Allow the glue to fully dry before operating your vehicle.

Caution: Be sure to use extreme care when using hobby-grade CA glue. It is specially formulated to cure quickly and create a strong bond. It will bond skin and can cause injury if used improperly. Follow manufacturer’s warnings and directions when using CA glue. It is always recommended to wear eye protection when maintaining your vehicle.

ii. When reinstalling tires, use caution when tightening the nuts that secure the wheels to the vehicle. Ensure the wheels rotate freely after installed but don’t wobble excessively. Over tightening the wheels may cause excess strain on the electrical and mechanical components of your vehicle. Operating your vehicle under these conditions will void your warranty.

iii. Taking the above into consideration, leaving wheels too loose can cause them to strip. It is recommended to check that the wheel nuts are tight every time you run your vehicle.

iv. Tire wear: Consequently running your vehicle will cause the tires to eventually wear out. Be sure to obtain and use genuine replacement parts from your local hobby dealer when necessary.

6. General wear and tear: a. Use of your vehicle will cause general wear and tear which is not covered under warranty yet may necessitate replacement of components. Continued operation of your product with worn components may cause continued damage to other components.

b. Be sure to regularly inspect your vehicle and accessories for excess wear and damaged components.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

Storage:

• Always store all equipment in a cool dry place when not in use.

• Always disconnect the batteries before storage.

• Never store the battery, vehicle or transmitter in direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

• Never store the transmitter with batteries installed for extended periods of time. Doing so may allow the batteries to leak and cause permanent damage to the transmitter.

Disposal:

Your product is equipped with NiMH batteries which are considered electronic waste and should never be discarded in standard garbage containers. Please visit your local hobby dealer (and some hardware stores too) and use the FREE battery disposal center for proper disposal/recycling. Consult your local city hall for information on recycling other electronic waste.
