15. Troubleshooting

The model vehicle is built using the latest technology, but faults or malfunctions may still occur. The following section
shows you how to troubleshoot possible faults.
The model does not respond (or does not respond correctly).
• In the case of 2.4 GHz remote control systems, the receiver must be connected to the remote control. This process
is known as "pairing". The manufacturer pairs the remote control with the receiver before the vehicle is shipped.
However, you can also pair the remote control yourself. To do this, follow the enclosed operating instructions for
the remote control.
• Is the receiver battery or the batteries in the remote control empty?
• Is the receiver battery connected to the corresponding connector?
• Did you switch on the remote control before switching on the receiver's power supply? Always proceed in this order.
• Use a high-current rechargeable battery pack to power the receiver. Conventional batteries do not deliver a high
enough current for the servos, which can lead to problems when both servos move at the same time.
• Is the vehicle too far away? The range should be at least 50 m when the receiver battery and the remote control
batteries are full. However, the range can be affected by the surroundings, such as other transmitters working on
the same or a similar frequency and proximity to objects such as metal parts and trees.
The position of the remote control and receiver aerials relative to one other also has a significant impact on the
range. For best results, the remote control and receiver aerial should be vertical. Pointing the remote control aerial
at the vehicle significantly reduces the range.
• Check that the servo connectors are in the correct position in the receiver. The servos will not function if the con-
nectors are inverted by 180°.
• Are the servo and speed controller connectors in the receiver in the correct position? If the connectors for the
throttle/brake servo and steering servo are connected the wrong way round, the throttle/brake servo will control the
steering servo (and vice versa).
The engine doesn't start.
• The carburettor is not configured correctly. The carburettor was configured correctly before the vehicle was shipped.
It is therefore not necessary to adjust the screw when using the vehicle for the first time. Any changes should be
made carefully after the break-in process. Note that even small screw movements have a significant impact.
Adjust the screws on the carburettor in very small steps (max. 1/16 of a turn) and make a note of the new position/
direction of rotation.
• Check that the glow plug is working correctly. If the glow plug was replaced, check that the correct type was used.
Only glow plugs designed for RC model vehicles may be used (see section 8d). In addition, check that the glow
plug battery is charged.
• Are all fuel pipes in order? Even small kinks can lead to functional problems.
• Have you added the correct type of fuel? The vehicle must be filled with a nitromethane/oil-based fuel designed for
RC model vehicles. Other fuels (e.g. petrol, 1:25 mixtures etc.) will cause the vehicle to malfunction.
• When using the vehicle for the first time, or if the vehicle has not been used for a long time, pull on the starter rope
several times to draw fuel from the tank (observe the fuel pipe between the tank and the carburettor until the fuel
enters the carburettor).
