Maintaining Your Vehicle

Just like a full size car or truck your RC vehicle must undergo periodic maintenance in order to ensure peak running performance. Preventative
maintenance will also help avoid needless breakages which could result in costly repairs. Below are some suggestions to properly maintain  
your vehicle. 

Range-Checking Your Radio System

The radio system should be checked before operating the vehicle to ensure it’s operating properly and has adequate range.

1.  Turn on the transmitter first and then the vehicle.

2.  Have a friend hold the vehicle while keeping hands and loose clothing away from moving parts.

3.  Walk away until you are at the farthest distance you plan to operate the vehicle.

4.  Steer the vehicle back and forth and throttle both forward and reverse making sure there is no erratic behavior. 

5.  If any erratic behavior is exhibited do not operate the vehicle, call customer service for further assistance.
