SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

All of us at Traxxas want you to safely enjoy your new model. Operate your model sensibly and with care, and it will be exciting, safe, and fun for you and those around you. Failure to operate your model in a safe and responsible manner may result in property damage and serious injury. The precautions outlined in this manual should be strictly followed to help ensure safe operation. You alone must see that the instructions are followed and the precautions are adhered to.

IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER

Your model is not intended for use on public roads or congested areas where its operation can conflict with or disrupt pedestrian or vehicular traffic.

Never, under any circumstances, operate the model in crowds of people. Your model is very fast and could cause injury if allowed to collide with anyone.

Because your model is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio interference from many sources that are beyond your control. Since radio interference can cause momentary losses of radio control, always allow a safety margin in all directions around the model in order to prevent collisions.

The motor, battery, and speed control can become hot during use. Be careful to avoid getting burned.

Don’t operate your model at night, or anytime your line of sight to the model may be obstructed or impaired in any way.

Most importantly, use good common sense at all times.

BATTERIES AND BATTERY CHARGING

Your model uses rechargeable batteries that must be handled with care for safety and long battery life. Make sure to read and follow all instructions and precautions that were provided with the battery packs and your charger. It is your responsibility to charge and care for the battery backs properly. In addition to your battery and charger instructions, here are some more tips to keep in mind.

Use the supplied charger to charge the included battery. See “Charging the Battery Pack” on page 10.

Never leave batteries to charge unattended.

Remove the battery from the model while charging.

Always unplug the battery from the electronic speed control when the model is not in use and when it is being stored

or transported.

Allow the battery pack to cool off between runs (before charging).

Do not use battery packs that have been damaged in any way.

Do not use battery packs that have damaged wiring, exposed wiring, or a damaged connector.

Children should have responsible adult supervision when charging and handling batteries.

Recycling Your Traxxas Power Cell NiMH Battery

Traxxas strongly encourages you to recycle your Power Cell battery when it has reached the end of its useful life. Do not throw your battery in the trash. All Power Cell battery packs display the RBRC (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) icon, indicating they are recyclable. To find a recycling center near you, ask your local hobby dealer or visit www.call2recycle.org.

SPEED CONTROL

Disconnect the Battery: Always disconnect the battery from the speed control when not in use.

Transmitter on First: Switch on your transmitter first before switching on the speed control to prevent runaways and

erratic performance.

Don’t Get Burned: The heat sink can get extremely hot, so be careful not to touch it until it is cool. Supply adequate airflow

for cooling.

Use Stock Connectors: If you decide to change the battery

or motor connectors, only change one battery or motor connector at a time. This will prevent damage from accidentally mis-wiring the speed control. Please note that modified speed controls can be subject to a rewiring fee when returned for service. Removing the battery connector on the speed control or using connectors with no reverse-polarity protection on the speed control will void the product’s warranty.

Insulate the Wires: Always insulate exposed or damaged wiring with heat shrink tubing to prevent short circuits.

No Reverse Voltage: The speed control is not protected against reverse polarity voltage. When changing the battery and/or motor, be sure to install the same type of connectors to avoid reverse polarity damage to the speed control. Removing the battery connectors on the speed control or using the same-gender connectors on the speed control will void the product’s warranty.

No Schottky Diodes: External Schottky diodes are not compatible with reversing speed controls. Using a Schottky diode will damage the electronic speed control and void the 30-day warranty.

Using Two Batteries: When using two batteries the batteries must be connected in parallel. Never connect two batteries in series, this will cause the ESC to fail. See page 11 for more information.
