Custom Rofun Assembly, Charging, and Operation

This Custom Rofun 5B arrives Ready To Run. Install the wheels, charge the onboard battery for a minimum of two hours, and then drive. Charging stays simple because the buggy includes a charging plug and a universal serial bus charger. Allow a 30-minute cool-down after a full charge before operating again. Remove the charger within 30 minutes of reaching full charge for best battery life. For storage, keep the battery fully charged.

Minor crashes rarely cause major damage because the design uses impact-forgiving materials.

Custom Rofun Fuel Mixing and Engine Care

Fuel ratio is 25:1 gasoline to oil. Fill the oil section of the mixing jug to the 25:1 line, then fill gasoline to the matching 25:1 level. Use non-synthetic, mineral-based 2-cycle oil to reduce carbon buildup and minimize spark plug fouling. Other reliable brands are acceptable.

Break-In Process – Custom Rofun for Maximum Performance for Rovan 5B

• First run: idle to 1/4 throttle for 5 minutes, cool completely
• Second run: repeat for 10 minutes, cool completely
• Third run: slightly harder driving 8 to 10 minutes, cool
• Continue several short controlled runs while monitoring heat
• After break-in, full-throttle tank runs are acceptable
• Recheck exhaust bolts after break-in

Before each use, inspect bolts and tighten as needed. Use thread-locker on clutch and brake assembly bolts after cleaning threads with alcohol.

Upgrade Guidance and Durability Notes

You may want to convert many components to aluminum, but hard aluminum parts can transfer impact and damage surrounding components. The factory high-strength plastic flexes, absorbs impact energy, and returns to shape, which often protects the buggy better than rigid upgrades.
