Maintenance
1. Cleaning
After each use, especially after running in dirt or sand, clean the car to remove debris. Use a soft brush or compressed air to clear dirt from moving parts, gears, and suspension components. A damp cloth can be used for the body shell, but avoid excessive moisture near electronics.
2. Battery Care and Storage
- Always fully charge batteries before storage if they will not be used for an extended period.
- Store batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Do not overcharge or over-discharge batteries.
3. Inspection and Lubrication
Regularly inspect the drivetrain, gears, and shocks for wear or damage. The CNC-machined all-metal drivetrain and gears are designed for durability, but periodic inspection is recommended. Lubricate moving parts as needed with RC-specific lubricants to ensure smooth operation and longevity.
