13. Verification of Steering, Driving and Switching Functions

Connect the servos or speed controllers used in your model and the power supply to the receiver.
To prevent the model from driving off inadvertently while testing the steering and drive functions, place the
model chassis on a suitable basis (wooden block, etc.). The wheels should turn freely.

a) Verification of the Steering Function

Next, switch on the transmitter and then the receiver. If everything was connected and installed correctly, the steering
should react to turns of the steering wheel (see figure 1, item 9).
When the steering wheel is in its central
position, the wheels must point straight
ahead.
If the wheels are turned even though the
steering wheel is in its central position,
check if the servo lever is skewed in rela-
tion to the steering links (see figure 13).
In this case, loosen the servo lever and
screw it back on after moving it by one
"tooth".
Other wheel position deviations may be
corrected by steering rod adjustment if de-
sired.
If you are steering to the left, the wheels
must turn to the left (see figure 14, sketch
A). If you are steering to the right, the
wheels must turn to the right (see figure
14, sketch B).
If the steering function responds exactly opposite to the steering direction on the transmitter, this can be
easily reprogrammed. For the exact procedure, refer to the following chapter "Programming the Remote
Control", section "Servo Reverse Function (REV)".
