Charging the Batteries
Ensure the RC car batteries are fully charged before first use for optimal performance.
- Open the battery compartment on the underside of the RC car using the provided screwdriver.
- Connect the rechargeable battery to the charging cable.
- Plug the USB end of the charging cable into a USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter).
- The indicator light on the charging cable will illuminate during charging and turn off when fully charged.
- Once charged, disconnect the battery and carefully insert it into the car's battery compartment, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
Note: The gesture sensing watch and remote control may require separate batteries (not included for the remote, watch battery is usually built-in and rechargeable via USB). Refer to their specific instructions for battery installation/charging.

Setup and Pairing
Before operating the RC car, ensure both the car and your chosen controller are powered on and paired.
- Install charged batteries into the RC car and the remote control (if using).
- Turn on the power switch on the RC car. The car's lights may flash.
- Turn on your preferred controller (remote control or gesture sensing watch).
- The controller and car should automatically pair. A solid light on the car and/or controller usually indicates successful pairing. If not, turn both off and on again.
Operating Instructions
Control Modes
Your Fosgoit RC Car offers three distinct control methods:
- Remote Control: Use the dual joysticks for forward/backward movement and turning. Dedicated buttons activate stunts and mode changes.
- Gesture Sensing Control: Wear the gesture watch and use specific hand movements to control the car's direction and perform basic maneuvers.
- Gravity Sensor Watch Control: Tilt the gesture watch to control the car's movement, offering an immersive driving experience.
Image: An illustration detailing the three primary control modes: gesture somatosensory control for turning, gravity sensor watch control for 360° rotation, and the traditional 2.4GHz remote controller.
Image: A comprehensive diagram illustrating the functions of both the gesture sensing watch (power switch, mode selection key, function indicator) and the remote control (forward/backward joysticks, turn left/right joysticks, power switch, mode change button, left/right 360° rotation buttons, left/right drift buttons, power indicator).
Driving Modes and Stunts
- Multi-directional Driving: The unique wheel design allows the car to move forward, backward, sideways, and diagonally.
- 360° Rotation: Use the dedicated buttons or gestures to make the car spin in place.
- Double-Sided Driving: The car can flip and continue driving on its other side, making it resilient to crashes.
- On-Road/Off-Road Transformation: The car can adjust its chassis height to adapt to different terrains.
