    Assembly and Operation

    Ready to run once wheels are installed and battery is charged. Charge at least 2 hours. Charging is simple through the plug with included USB charger. No disassembly needed. Let battery cool 30 minutes after charge. Remove charger within 30 minutes of full charge to extend battery life. Store battery fully charged.

    Crash durability is excellent. Normal crashes rarely cause significant damage.

    Fuel Mix: 25:1 gasoline to oil (151.4ml per gallon). Use mineral based 2 stroke oil. Evinrude Johnson Premium TC-W3 Mineral 2 Cycle Oil works excellent and helps prevent plug fouling and carbon buildup.

    Radio: Uses 2 active channels. Adjust trims under rear radio cover. Steering trim top left, throttle and brake trim top right, steering range bottom left, throttle range bottom right.

    Starting Instructions

    Turn radio and car on
    Set choke lever vertical closed
    Prime bulb 3 to 4 times
    Pull rope gently until engagement, then quick short pulls
    Engine usually fires within 1 to 3 pulls
    Turn off choke and restart with 1 to 2 pulls

    Break In Process

    Run 5 minutes at idle to 1/4 throttle, cool completely
    Run 10 minutes light throttle, cool completely
    Run 8 to 10 minutes slightly harder, cool
    Repeat heat cycles for several runs
    After break in, full throttle tank run is fine
    Retighten exhaust bolts after break in

    Check bolts before every run. Use lock tight on clutch and brake assembly. Clean threads before applying.

    Important Upgrade Advice

    Do not rush to replace plastic with aluminum. Aluminum transfers impact and damages surrounding parts. High Strength ABS flexes, absorbs impact, and survives abuse better. Many plastic components outperform aluminum.
