EFINITIONS
Differential
Differential gear. Compensates for differences in speed, for example between the inner-curve and outer-curve wheel.
Drive control, electronic
controls the current flow to the electric engine in form of connecting impulses, which supply the entire battery voltage to the
engine and switch it off again. The longer the voltage is at the engine (control of width of impulse) the higher the engine speed
will be. The signals from the RC transmitter define the width of impulses. The receiver receives the signals and transmits them
to the drive control. The electronic drive control allows for a fine and continuous control of the speed. You define the
idle point and the full speed point forward and backward with the programming.
Radio interference suppression
During operation, direct current engines generate a very broadband, more or less strong interfering
signal. These interference frequencies reach the UHF range and can therefore influence your own RC
transmitter.
As the distance to the model gets longer, the signal from the transmitter gets weaker, and the
interference signal can cause a loss of control over the model.
Receiver
Receives and "translates" the control signals of the RC transmitter (direction and intensity) for the servo and the drive control.
The receiver quartz ensures a perfect communication between the transmitter and the receiver.
The transmitter and receiver quartz are tuned in such a way that the signals of transmitters operated in parallel cannot
interfere with the receiver of this model.
Servo motor
Its shaft turns in both senses in a limited angle and carries out the steering function mechanically over levers.
Servo lever (servo arm)
Lever, disk or cross with 4 control levers transmitting the rotating movement of the servo motor
via steering levers.
Servo saver
Cushioned additional link between steering servo and steering link. Sudden, hard impacts on the steered wheels are
cushioned via this link and are not directed straight into the servo.
Shock absorbers
The four shock absorbers consist of one coil spring each. In its centre there is a cylinder with a piston and a piston
rod. The springs absorb the dislocation of the axle halves when driving over bumps, the spring flection and deflection
is absorbed by the piston in the centre of the coil springs.
Each shock absorber is fastened between the shock absorber bridge and the lower transverse link.
Shock absorber bridge
The upper end of the shock absorber of an axle right and left is screwed to the shock absorber bridge in the front and back.
Therefore the shock absorbers are in a way connected via the shock absorber bridge.
Steering knuckle pin
Steering axle of the wheel. Connects the steering knuckle with the steering knuckle carrier.
Steering link
Most often it consists of three levers that are moveably interconnected. The outer steering links (if the alignment is
adjustable, the length can be adapted) connect the steering link levers at the steering knuckle in a moveable way with the
middle part of the steering link swayed to the right/left by the steering servo lever.
Steering link lever
Lever on the steering knuckle. Moving the steering link via this lever to the right or left causes the wheels to turn.
Steering servo
This servo causes the steering movement via the steering links. A servo saver integrated in the servo control level protects
the servo from damage hard impact on the wheels might cause in the servo gear over the steering links.
