•
Turn off the transmitter switch.

Fail Safe Operation and Setup
The Receiver has a built in failsafe. The failsafe will automatically go to a pre set position if
•
You lose radio signal/power runs out in transmitter
•
If you suffer any interference
•
If your receiver battery runs out of power
It is advised that you should set the failsafe so that in the event of any of the above situations the throttle servo should apply brakes to your car or
the throttle disengages on a speed control.
To set up your failsafe you must do the following.
•
Turn on the transmitter and the receiver
•
Apply the desired amount of brakes on the transmitter (brakes for engine, neutral for speed control)
•
Press the binding button on the transmitter twice in quick succession
To check the failsafe is working you must turn on the R/C unit and then apply throttle with the transmitter. Whilst holding throttle turn off the
transmitter. The throttle servo or ESC should return to the pre-set position. This means the failsafe is working correctly. If your servo or ESC does
not return to the pre-set position then you must try to re-set your failsafe.
Once fastened and secured please
connect the battery plug into the speed
controller plug noting correct polarity.
Red to red, black to black.

The "Evo S" differs from the standard "Evo"
chassis as it comes fitted with a red high amp
4mm gold connection for the Battery and ESC.
The connection can only be plugged together in
one way to protect against a reverse polarity
connection.
If they point straight no adjustment required.
