Operating Instructions
Your Mario Anti-Gravity Mini RC Racer offers two exciting modes of operation: Standard Mode and Anti-Gravity Mode.
Pairing the Remote Control
Before first use, ensure both the vehicle and remote have fresh batteries installed. Turn on the vehicle and then the remote control. They should automatically pair. If not, refer to the specific pairing instructions on the remote or vehicle for a reset button.
The remote control allows for full function steering and control. The effective range of the RC Racer is up to 100 feet (approximately 30 meters), providing ample space for play.
Standard Mode
In Standard Mode, the RC Racer operates like a traditional remote-controlled car. Use the joystick or directional buttons on the remote to control forward, backward, left, and right movements.
Anti-Gravity Mode
To activate Anti-Gravity Mode, press the designated button on the remote control. In this mode, the vehicle's wheels will reorient, allowing for unique maneuvers. This mode is ideal for performing advanced tricks.
Performing Drifts and Tricks
While in Anti-Gravity Mode, you can perform impressive drifts and other tricks by manipulating the steering and acceleration. Experiment with different control inputs to master these maneuvers.
Wheelies and 360 Spins
The RC Racer is capable of performing wheelies and 360-degree spins. Consult the remote control's button layout for specific controls to execute these actions. Practice in an open area to perfect your technique.
