Charging The Battery; Insert The Battery; Getting Started - XciteRC Sand Storm one8 2WD Mode D'emploi

Charging · Getting started
• Make sure that no other 2.4 GHz network (eg. WLAN or other transmitter) sends nearby.
• The distance between transmitter - Sand Storm one8 should be maximum one meter.
• Insert the supplied BINDING plug into channel 4 of the receiver and then turn the vehicle on. Press and
hold the PAIR button on the transmitter and turn it on. The green LED of the transmitter and the receiver's
LED starts flashing to indicate the binding process. After about 5 seconds, both transmitter LEDs light up
continuously - as well as the LED of the reciever, the transmitter is now bound to the Sand Storm one8.
• To activate the failsafe function, set the steering and throttle trim to the center position and remove the
BINDING plug. In the event of a transmission failure (eg exceeding the maximum range or empty transmit-
ter batteries), the model does not react uncontrollably, just rolls to a halt in a straight line.
• If the model cannot be controlled, repeat the process.
• WARNING: Never operate your model with inserted BINDING plug! Use it only during the BINDING pro-
cess - risk of crash!

Charging the Battery:

Before the first use of your new model the drive battery needs to be charged.

Also, if necessary, further safety instructions in the manual for your used charger.
WARNING: Charge may occur only with the supplied charger on a fireproof surface and under cons-
tant adult supervision - fire or explosion hazard!
For charging remove the battery from the vehicle.

Getting started

Insert the battery into the vehicle and connect the plug to the ESC. Before you start, check all functions of
the remote control. Does the vehicle follow exactly and directly your commands? Or does it react delayed
or choppy? If yes, do not start anyway, but check transmitter and drive batteries and recharge or replace if
necessary.
The run time of your Sand Storm one8 depends on the surface. The maximum run time is reached on a
straight and levelled surface. In hilly terrain or grass, the run time is much shorter, also the motor, speed
controller and battery gets much warmer. If the battery is weak, the vehicle first gets slower until it finally
stops completely. To increase the life time of the drive battery, you should cease operation when the vehicle
begins to slow down.
1. Switch on the transmitter, ON/OFF-switch in position I.
