Model Lock

The Traxxas Link Model Memory feature can store up to thirty models 
(receivers) in its memory. If you bind a thirty-irst receiver, Traxxas Link 
Model Memory will delete the “oldest” receiver from its memory (in 
other words, the model you used the longest time ago will be deleted). 
Activating Model Lock will lock the receiver in memory so it cannot be 
deleted.

You may also bind multiple TQi transmitters to the same model, making 
it possible to pick up any transmitter and any previously bound model 
in your collection and simply turn them on and drive. With Traxxas 
Link Model Memory, there is no need to remember which transmitter 
goes with which model, and there is never a need to have to select any 
model from a list of model memory entries. The transmitter and receiver 
do it all for you automatically.

To activate Model Lock:

1. Switch on the transmitter and receiver you wish to lock. 
2. Press and hold MENU. Release when the status LED blinks green.
3. Press MENU three times. The status LED will blink green four  

times repeatedly.

4. Press SET. The status LED will blink green in single-lash intervals. 
5. Press SET once. The status LED will blink red once repeatedly. 
6. Press MENU once. The status LED will blink red twice repeatedly. 
7. Press SET. The LED will blink rapidly green. The memory is now 

locked. Press and hold MENU to return to driving mode. 

 

Note

: To unlock a memory, press SET twice at step 5. The LED will 

blink rapidly green to indicate the model is unlocked. To unlock all 
models, press MENU twice at step 6 and then press SET.

To delete a model:

At some point, you may wish to delete a model you no-longer drive  
from the memory.
1. Switch on the transmitter and receiver you wish to delete. 
2. Press and hold MENU. Release when the status LED blinks green.
3. Press MENU three times. The status LED will blink green four  

times repeatedly.

4. Press SET once. The status LED will blink green once repeatedly. 
5. Press MENU once. The status LED will blink  green twice repeatedly. 
6. Press SET. The memory is now selected to be deleted. Press SET to 

delete the model. Press and hold MENU to return to driving mode. 

Failsafe

Your Traxxas radio system is 
equipped with a built-in failsafe 
function that returns the throttle 
to its last saved neutral position in 
the event of a signal loss. The LED 
on the transmitter and the receiver 
will rapidly lash red.
