battery from over-discharge.

a. 

When running a LiPo battery it is required to change the included battery connector to a high current connector. We 
recommend W.S. Deans Ultra-Plugs (WSD1300) available at your local hobby dealer. Using the supplied connector 
with LiPo batteries will cause the connector to over-heat and possibly melt which could lead to the battery expe-
riencing a dead-short and causing fire. It is critical that the connector be changed and that you do not try to use 
an adapter in this application.  You can purchase an adapter from Ultra-Plug (F) to Tamiya style (F) from your local 
hobby dealer which will allow you to continue to use your included Helion battery after you have changed your 
main power connector. 

b. 

When running a LiPo battery it is also recommended to run the optional (RDNA0026) motor heat sink with cooling 
fan to keep your motor and ESC running at lower temperatures.

3.  NiMH: (Indicated by 3 blinks of the LED) Using the supplied 1800mAh battery requires that you use the NIMH mode to ensure 

proper operation of your ESC and maximized 
performance from your batteries. 

Your ESC is 

pre-configured to this setting.

Setting The Running Mode (LVC):

 If you 

are running your vehicle and notice a sudden 
decrease in power, look at the LED on the ESC. If 
it is flashing, your ESC has detected battery volt-
age that is lower than what should be safely run 
without causing damage to your battery or elec-
tronic equipment. Follow the below instructoins to 
change the setting.

1.  With the ESC OFF, press and hold the button 

and turn ON the power switch to the ESC. The 
LED will blink a pattern (1=OFF, 2=LiPo, or 
3=NiMH) blinks per second indicating which 
LVC mode you are in. Press the button to cycle 
through the modes.

2.  Turn your ESC OFF when you have made your 

selection to save the settings

Turning Reverse ON/OFF:

Most organized racing does not allow use of 
reverse. Follow the below procedure to select your 
desired reverse/brake mode.

1.  With the ESC OFF, press and hold the button 

and turn ON the power switch to the ESC. The 
LED will blink the LVC setting.

2.  Press and hold the button near the switch for 3 seconds to enter programming mode. The LED will flash the setting. 1 flash 

indicates ON. 2 flashes indicates OFF. Press the button to cycle through the modes.

3.  Turn your ESC OFF when you have made your selection. The settings are automatically saved.

The Dominus 10TR has been engineered with some available tuning options listed here for reference. The default configuration has 
been chosen to provide what we feel is the most enjoyable experience for most operating conditions. However we do encourage 
experimentation and testing as that’s where the real fun begins!

Ride height adjustment: 

It is possible to adjust the ride height of your Dominus 10TR by installing and or removing adjust-

ment clips located directly above the shock springs.

•  Adding more clips will raise the ride height of the vehicle and if done excessively may decrease stability. 
•  Removing clips will lower the ride height and may cause the chassis to drag on the ground.
•  It is ideal to have the drive shafts level with the ground while the vehicle is sitting on a flat surface with the body installed. Add 

or remove clips to achieve the desired ride height.

Upper Shock Position: 

There are two shock installation locations for the top mounting location of the shock towers. The de-

fault position is outside (located farther from the centerline of the chassis). Moving the shock mounting location to the inner location 
will result in a slightly less responsive feel on the front or rear of the vehicle but it will be a little more stable.
