The Anti-Lock Braking function makes it possible to achieve stable braking even on a slippery surface. With stable braking, your
model is better able to trace an exact line under braking. The Anti-Lock Braking function also enables you to set different braking
characteristics depending on your particular model. Different Anti-Lock Braking function options can be custom programmed,
including the how quickly the brake pulsates, the point at which the Anti-Lock Braking function starts and more.
06.aLB (anTi-LOck BRaking)
The Anti-Lock Braking function operates only when the throttle trigger is moved from Neutral to the Brake side. Set the
hardest braking you can obtain from your model by carefully setting the Anti-Lock Braking function at the point right before
the tires fully lock up but do not slip and lose traction.
PRO TIP:
Use the Servo Monitor at the bottom of the ALB menu to see your programming changes in virtual real time.
1) From the Top Screen, press the ENTER key to open the Programming Menu list.
2) Scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the ALB menu, then press the ENTER key. The ALB
menu will be displayed and STROKE OFF will be highlighted.
Adjusting the Stroke Percentage Value
The Stroke percentage value determines the amount of Brake that's applied automatically when the Anti-Lock Braking function
Activates. When set to 'OFF', the Anti-Lock Braking function will not work. A percentage value of 1% or greater must be
programmed for the Anti-Lock Braking function to operate.
3) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to increase or decrease the Stroke
percentage value. Increasing the Stroke percentage value will increase throttle servo
travel in the Brake direction and decreasing the Stroke percentage value will decrease
throttle servo travel in the Brake direction.
ALB STROKE setting range is OFF to 100%. The default setting is OFF.
Adjusting the Point Percentage Value
The Point percentage value determines the position along the servo travel that the Anti-Lock Braking function Activates.
1) From within the ALB menu, scroll DOWN to highlight POINT 80%. Press the ENTER
key, then scroll UP or DOWN to increase or decrease the Point percentage value.
Increasing the Point percentage value will cause the Anti-Lock Braking function to
Activate later and decreasing the Point percentage value will cause the Anti-Lock
Braking function to Activate sooner.
ALB POINT setting range is 5% to 100%. The default setting is 80%.
Adjusting the Release and Hold Values
The Release and Hold values determine the speed at which the brake pulsates. By adjusting the Release and Hold values, you
can make the brake pulsate faster or slower. The Release value determines how quickly the Brake moves from Neutral to the
percentage value determined by the Stroke setting and the Hold value determines how quickly the Brake moves from the Stroke
setting to Neutral.
We recommend using equal Release and Hold values, although different values can be used to fine-tune how the Brake
pulsates. Using lower values make the Brake pulsate faster and using higher values make the Brake pulsate slower.
When the Anti-Lock Braking function is Active, LED 1 (Blue) will flash rapidly.
