Control function of speed control system
>
Put the accelerator/brake lever and the respective trimming in the neutral position.
When the remote control lever is in the neutral position, the motor must not start up.
>
If necessary, bring the motor to a standstill using the trim on the transmitter.
>
Move the accelerator/brake lever on the remote control forward. The rotating speed of the motor should change infinitely
variably.
>
Then move the remote control lever backwards to check brake and reverse travel mode.
>
If the wheels turn in the wrong direction, use the servo reverse switch on the transmitter to correct the running direction.

Comply with the safety instructions in these Operating Instructions for driving operation.
Familiarise yourself with the driving behaviour of the model step-by-step.
>
Stand behind the model and first drive it away from you. The reaction of the model to the steering will then be the same
as if you were sitting at the wheel yourself.
>
Then make the model drive toward you. The direction in which it reacts is then mirror-reversed to the direction of control.
>
Then begin with simple driving exercises by driving in an "eight" pattern, forming circles as equal to one another as pos-
sible.
>
Use lightweight cones that are not fastened as limits and turn markers to mark out a course with changing directions to
drive in so as to practice making curves.
>
Gradually increase the speed and observe the handling.
>
Always maintain direct eye contact with the model.

The terms front/rear/right/left in the following always refer to the vehicle's longitudinal axis in the direction of
travel looking "forwards".
.1 Adjusting the shock absorbers
With the factory-adjustment of the model, you can get initial experience with no problem. With increasing driving practice,
however, depending on the course and condition of the ground, you will want to make customised adaptations step by step.
Ways of doing so include changing the spring preload and changing the angle of attack of the shock absorbers. There is no
universal specification for the spring preload or the angle of attack of the shock absorbers.
The adjustment of the shock absorbers has a crucial influence on the handling of the model. This not only affects the actual
absorption of the unevenness of the ground, but also of the steering via the grip of the individual axles.
Thus one speaks of, for example, "oversteering" and "understeering" handling.
Understeering handling:
The model has too much traction by the rear axle or too little traction by the front axle steered and can only be turned on
curves with difficulty. It "pushes" outward over the front wheels.
As a countermeasure, the shock absorption in the front should be adjusted with less resistance (or more resistance in the
rear).
Oversteering handling:
The model has too little traction by the rear axle or too much traction by the front axle steered and "pulls" in curves, the rear
tending to swerve out.
As a countermeasure, the shock absorption in the rear should be adjusted with less resistance (or more resistance in the
front).
