 CHARGING
For optimum charging results, the built-in
charger requires a USB power supply capable
of at least 2-3A output. Using a power supply
with a lower output will result in very long
charge times or the transmitter not charging if
it is powered on while attempting to charge.
The first time the transmitter is charged, the
charge time may be 6-7 hours. Charge the
transmitter when the low battery alarm sounds.
See the Audio Events section for information
on setting the low battery alarm level.

 AVC® (ACTIVE VEHICLE CONTROL)
AVC® technology is available, only when an
AVC capable receiver is selected.
Enable/Disable
Turn AVC on or off.

STEERING GAIN
The default value is 50%. As the value
increases, the AVC steering stability
increases.
If the front wheels begin to shake, the ST
Gain value is too high. Reduce the ST Gain
value until the front wheels stop shaking.
 THROTTLE GAIN
The default value is 50%. As the value
increases, the throttle management increases.
 PRIORITY
The default value is 0%, meaning AVC
technology is active throughout the steering
range. As you turn the steering wheel away
from center (neutral), the transmitter controls
have priority over the AVC system. Increasing
the Priority value decreases how active AVC is
as the steering wheel is turned left and right.
For example, if you increase Priority to 80%, you
reduce the AVC steering control by 80% at full
left or full right steering. Increasing the Steering
Priority enables you to make tighter turns.

TOC
 BINDING
Binding is the Process of teaching the
receiver the specific transmitter’s code called
GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) and storing
failsafe values. When a receiver is bound to
a transmitter/model memory, the receiver
will only respond to that specific transmitter/
model memory.
To bind the transmitter to a receiver
1. Touch the Desired Frame Rate drop down
to select from 5.5ms, 11ms and 22ms.
• 5.5ms is only available on certain
receivers from the model setup
procedure. Check your receiver manual
for more information.
• If 5.5ms frame rate is selected in the
transmitter, only two channels, Steering
and Throttle, are operational. The Aux
channels can be used to power a
personal transponder or lights.
• If a frame rate other than 5.5ms is
selected, the Aux channels will operate
as extra servo channels.
2. Following the instructions for your receiver,
place the receiver in bind mode.
3. Touch the BEGIN BINDING button.
IMPORTANT: Re-bind any time you change
the frame rate in the transmitter.

TOC
 DRIVE MODES
Drive modes allow for different setups for a
particular model. For example, you can create
one drive mode for racing on a high bite clay
track and another drive mode for a dry, loose
track. Each model can have several drive
modes programmed to a switch or button for
on-the-fly changes between modes.
The active drive mode is always displayed in
the top left corner of the screen.
Changes to model setup, trim and timers will
only affect the active drive mode.
• Touch the On-the-Fly Button drop down to
select a button or switch to enable instant
mode changes. The number of drive modes
available will change according to which
button is chosen.
• Touch the Drive Mode button to change the
drive mode name. Type in the desired name
and touch the checkmark button to accept.
• Touch Flag Color to change the color of the
Drive mode banner. Touch the desired color,
and touch Save to accept.
• Touch Delete to delete drive modes
(a model must have at least 1 drive mode).
• If more than 1 drive mode exists, touch the
arrow buttons to re-order the list.

TOC
 LAUNCH CONTROL
This feature allows the driver to customize a
launch curve to control the duration of time it
takes to reach full throttle as well as adjusting
points in the throttle curve to effectively ramp
the throttle to the driver’s preference, allowing
for consistent starts race after race.

TOC
 LAUNCH CONTROL
Start Button
The start button controls the start of the
Launch Control sequence. There are two
common ways to use the start button:
• As a hand brake: Press and hold the
assigned button to disable the throttle
channel. The alert selected for the launch
sequence will activate and continue until the
sequence runs. With the button held, pull
full throttle. When the race starts, release
the button. The launch control sequence
takes over and runs for the assigned
duration. When the sequence is complete,
the throttle trigger operates normally.
• As a pre-launch stage: When you are on
the starting line, ready to run, tap the button
to start the Launch Control sequence. The
alert selected for the launch sequence will
activate and continue until the sequence
runs. When the race starts, pull full throttle to
begin the run. The launch control sequence
takes over and runs for the assigned
duration. When the sequence is complete,
the throttle trigger operates normally.
Simply press or hold your start button to
restart the Launch Control sequence.
IMPORTANT: Once the Launch Control
sequence has been started for a run, there
is no way to reset it. If for any reason you
start the sequence and need to abort the
launch, release the throttle trigger, release
the start button, then very lightly tap and
release the throttle. The sequence will run
through using 0 throttle power output.
Boost Button
Boost is a push button/trimmer which, when
pressed, adds a percentage of throttle to
the output, effectively boosting your throttle
output between 0-25%. The value shown is
the percentage of throttle added when the
button is pressed and held.
Curve Selector
Curve Selector allows the selection of a
different launch curve with the touch of the
selected switch. This may be configured to
as many positions as the selected switch
supports. When set to None a total of five
curves are available, and the curve selected
is specified in the Active Curve field. If a
switch is selected, the Active Curve field
is not available. Simply toggle the selected
switch to change between curves.
Jump
Enable Jump to automatically display the
Launch Control Status screen when the
selected start button is pressed. When
disabled, access the Launch Control screen
by scrolling to it from the dashboard screen
or selecting the Launch Control tab from
the main screen. The jump action is inactive
when RF is disabled.
Alert Type
Add an alert to signify when the Launch
Control is active. Choose between tone,
vibrate, and tone + vibrate.

TOC
 LAUNCH CURVE
Duration
Select the total duration time of the launch
control sequence, up to 5.0 seconds.

Curve
The default launch curve has 4 points. The
first and last points will always be at 0,0 and
100,100 respectively and are not adjustable.
The horizontal value represents time as a
percentage of the total sequence duration.
The vertical value represents throttle power
output percentage.
Add up to 4 additional points (8 total) to the
curve by touching the the curve where you
wish to add a point.
Change the position of the points by first
touching the point to be adjusted, then
dragging the Time or Power slider to make
major value changes and the + or – button to
fine tune the values.

TOC
 LAUNCH CONTROL TIPS
Start Button: set to any available switch that
is easily accessible.
An easy way to select the switch is to choose
the option and press the button/trimmer on
your transmitter to automatically change it to
the switch of your choice.
Launch control must be activated before
every run down the track, so remember to hit
the start button before every run.
The fastest starts are achieved by holding
down the start button, pulling full throttle, and
releasing the start button when the race starts.
Continue to hold full throttle until you reach the
finish line or the run needs to be aborted. This
method reduces the latency between your eyes
and the starting tree, but it also allows for less
margin of error while driving.
When the launch control duration is
completed, launch control is deactivated until
the start button is pressed again.
Boost Button: Boost is tricky to set ]correctly
and use it during the short runs typical to
drag racing, but it may be helpful on longer
strips or slower vehicles. Like the start button,
use a button that is easy to reach.
Curve: set to Drive Mode to allow for up to 5
programmable throttle curves. Assign Drive
Mode to an open switch in the Drive Mode
menu and select how many drive modes you
would like to use, before proceeding to assign
it in the Launch Control menu. We use the “I”
switch next to the knob as it’s easy to toggle at
the line and is not easy to accidently change.
Alert: This lets the driver know launch control
is active without looking at the screen. We
suggest the Vibe option to prevent any noise
distractions when watching the starting tree.
Curve programming: The ideal curve will
give maximum acceleration while minimizing
wheel spin. We suggest using all available
points in the curve as this allows for smoother
response. Timing and power of each point
will be determined by making test runs. With
sensorless systems it helps to have higher
power settings at the start of the curve to
help reduce cogging off the start line.
Duration: Longer duration makes the car feel
and run slower as it takes longer to transit the
programmed curve. This is helpful on low traction
surfaces like dusty parking lots and streets.
Shorter duration is ideal for high traction
surfaces that allow for maximum acceleration.
• Low traction: 1.2-1.5s suggested
• High traction: .5-.9s suggested
