[. . . ] The model you wish to copy "From" must be selected in the model select "SL" screen. Then using the "Aux. " +/- keys, you can select the model you wish to copy "To". Once you have selected the proper models push the "Data" inc/dec keys simultaneously and there will be an audible "beep" to verify copy. MODEL SELECT COPY EDIT RST MODEL SL X Model Select: MODEL XX COPY EDIT RL X RST MASTER SLAVE DATA : 0 - 9 This feature associates a number to the model. The letters "SL" will appear on the screen with a blinking number 0 - 9. These are your model numbers; they can be adjusted by using the "Aux. " +/- keys to select the model you wish to program and use. Racer Tip To help remember which model is which number, use a little round sticky dot you can buy at most stationary stores. Mark the model number and stick it on top of the receiver. TIMER TIMMER MODEL SELECT EDIT MODEL COPY EDIT XX X :X SL X 7 MODEL XX COPY MODEL DATA : 0 - 9 SELECT : CHANNEL KEY BLINKING Timer: The timer can be selected to count up or down. To count down, select the amount of time you wish from 1 - 60 minutes using the "Data" key inc/dec buttons. Once you have selected the time, it can be activated by pressing the "Edit" DN key after you are out of the programming menu. Racer Tip You can use the timer two ways, to count up or count down. If you want to see how long your car will run, use the count up setting. If you are looking to simulate race conditions, set it to count down, normally 4 or 5 minutes. There will be an audible tone each minute and a countdown for the last 10 seconds. This way you can tell how the car feels at the end of a simulated race and see if you have the proper gearing. A good place to start is by setting the depth to 50% and the speed and delay to "5". Experiment with it to find the optimum setting for your particular application CH3 BLINKING EDIT AUX POINT DATA : 0 - 99 DEFAULT : 0 IDLE-UP EDIT $XXX%X 0% AUX +- ABS ID-UP 0%2 BLINKING DATA : 0 - 9 DEFAULT : 0 dl y 0 AUX ++ AUX AUX +- ABS BLINKING DATA : 0 - 9 DEFAULT : 0 sp d 0 xx x%d BLINKING POINT ON ABS DATA : 0 - 100% DEFAULT : 0 ABS BLINKING DEPTH AUX +- BLINKING POINT DATA ABS +/PUSH TOGETHER OFF ABS 9 Auxiliary Channel 3: This is the third channel of your three channel radio and can be used for many different applications. Once you have selected the #, they can be adjusted by using the "Data" in/dec keys. If you wish to use less than the five setting you can inhibit #2, 3 or 4 by pressing the "Data" inc/dec keys simultaneously, the screen will read "Inh". To reactivate the inhibited setting just push the "Data" inc/dec keys simultaneously and select the %. To activate the third channel once it is programmed, push the "Aux" + or - keys to cycle through the points you have programmed. Racer Tip The most common use of this function is the manipulation of a remote needle valve adjustment for nitro boats. Next, program the settings so you can "learn" or :richen" the motor for fine tuning the performance. Experiment for yourself to find the optimum. REVERSE A. B. S.

Use the "Aux" +/- keys to select channel #1 (Steering), #2 (Throttle) or #3 (Aux). Normal rotation will look like "noR" and reverse will look like "REv". [. . . ] If trims and horn are centered and the steering is still off, adjust the linkage to compensate. Throttle The trims are a valuable tuning tool and can be adjusted to change the vehicles handling. (-) trim will add more "drag brake" when the trigger is released. Too much "drag brake" will cause the vehicle to overteer and slow the corner speed. (+) trim will actually allow the car to creep forward when the throttle is released so you would have to hold the brakes to keep it from moving when stopped. [. . . ]
