Transmitter Controls:
- Steering Wheel (Left/Right): Controls the direction of the RC car. Turn the wheel left to steer left, and right to steer right.
- Throttle Trigger (Forward/Backward/Brake): Pull the trigger towards you for forward movement. Push the trigger away from you for braking, and push further for reverse.
- Steering Trim: Adjusts the neutral position of the steering. If the car pulls to one side when the steering wheel is centered, use this dial to correct it.
- Steering Reverse Switch: Reverses the steering direction. Use if the car steers left when you turn the wheel right, and vice-versa.
- Steering Dual Rate Adjustment: Controls the maximum steering angle. Adjust to limit how sharply the car can turn, useful for different driving conditions or skill levels.
- Speed Mode (Full speed/Half speed): Selects between full power output for maximum speed or half power for reduced speed, ideal for beginners or indoor use.
- Power Switch: Turns the transmitter on or off. Always turn on the transmitter before the RC car and turn off the RC car before the transmitter.
