EN REMOVING THE VEHICLE BODY INSTALLING THE BATTERY IN THE VEHICLE 1. Remove the front and rear body clips, then remove the battery strap. 2. Install a fully charged battery. 3. Install the battery strap. 4. Install the front and rear body clips. If desired, you can put foam blocks (ECX1053) in front of the battery so the weight of the battery increases rear traction or in back of the battery to increase steering response.
EN TRANSMITTER CONTROLS TH TRIM Adjusts the neutral point of the electronic speed control. SERVO REVERSE SWITCHES Allows you to change the direction of steering (ST. REV) and throttle (TH. REV) controls (default settings are “N” for steering and “N” for throttle). ST TRIM Adjust to make the vehicle drive straight with no input at the steering wheel. TH RATE ST RATE Adjusts the end point of the throttle. Adjusts the amount the front wheels move when the steering wheel is turned left or right.
EN GETTING STARTED 2. Power on the ESC. 1. Power on the transmitter. 3. Do a test of the transmitter’s control of the vehicle with the vehicle’s wheels off the ground. 4. Start driving slowly, and, if the vehicle does not go straight, adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter. IMPORTANT: Seat the motor brushes by driving smoothly on a flat surface during use of the first battery charge. Properly seating the motor brushes will increase the life and performance of the motor.
EN OPERATION • ALWAYS turn on your transmitter before you turn on the receiver in the vehicle. Always power off the receiver before turning your transmitter off. • ALWAYS operate your vehicle in a wide open area. Operating the vehicle in a small space or indoors can cause overheating at low speeds. Operating at low speed increases heat in the electronic speed control (ESC). Overheating can damage the vehicle and failure may result. WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED 1. Power off the Electronic Speed Control (ESC). 2.
EN MAINTENANCE ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL (ESC) Programming: The ESC comes with two jumpers pre-installed in the REV: ON and BATT: Ni-MH configurations. To disable reverse or change battery type to Li-Po, disconnect the jumper from the default port and connect it to the desired port. Power off the ESC, then power it back on. If the jumpers are lost or not installed, the ESC will default to REV: ON and BATT: Li-Po.
EN SHOCK CLEANING Oil-filled shocks will require regular maintenance due to the oil breaking down or getting dirty. This maintenance should be performed after about every 3 to 5 hours of use, depending on the conditions that the vehicle is used in. • Remove the shock from the vehicle. • Remove the cap from the shock body and dispose of fluid. • Disassemble the shock. Clean thoroughly with DYN5505. Dry parts before assembly.
EN BINDING You must rebind when: Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. The STX2® and SRX200 receiver are bound at the factory. If you need to rebind, follow the instructions below. 1. Insert the Bind Plug in the BIND port on the receiver. • Different failsafe positions are desired e.g., when throttle or steering reversing has been changed. 2. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC. 3.
