ESCRIPTION OF THE MODEL
Damper plate
The upper end of the shock absorber of an axle right and left is screwed to the damper plate at the front or at the rear.
The shock absorbers are thus somehow interconnected via the damper plate.
Differential
Differential gear. Equalizes the different revolution speeds, e.g. between the wheel on the inside of a bend and the outside of a bend.
Fail-safe (COUGAR 4.1)
Electronic switching which moves the connected servo into a free to select position in case of an interruption of the radio contact e.g. if the range is
exceeded or in case of a transmission fault or in case of low voltage of the receiver battery.
Once the radio contact is restored, the servo reacts normally again to the control signals. In case of low voltage, the servo position remains
unchanged. The fail-safe function can be integrated in the receiver and can as well be inserted between the receiver and the servo as additional con-
structional element
Fuel tank
The fuel tank with snap closing contains 100 ccm and is equipped with an integrated fuel filter. The tank is connected with the carburettor by means of
two hoses at the fittings in the cover via a manual pump. A further hose is used for fuel-tank venting.
Inclination
Inclination of the wheels as viewed from the front:
Main nozzle needle
Regulates the fuel supply to the carburettor in middle to full load range
Oil pressure shock absorbers
The shock absorber consists of a coil spring with a piston in an oil-filled cylinder running up and down at the center. The coil spring is supported by
a spring seat at the end of the piston rod and, depending on the design, a ring bolt or a spring pretensioner on the outer side of the cylinder. The
spring pretension can be adjusted infinitely at the ring bolt or can be adjusted stepwise via spring pretensioners of different sizes. The spring absorbs
the travel of the axle halves when traveling in uneven terrain. The bounding and rebounding is dampened by the piston moving through the oil. By
selecting different dampening oils the dampening properties can be varied. The shock absorber is mounted between the damper plate at the top and
the lower transverse link. The compression distance is limited via a plastic sleeve.
Depending on the model, the spring pretension can be adjusted infinitely at ring bolts or can be adjusted stepwise via spring pretensioners of different
sizes.

PERATING EQUENCE OF THE CONTROL
Driver Transmitter
RC model
"Radio controlled", to be more precise: "Remote Controlled" Model
Receiver
Receives and "translates" the control signals of the remote control transmitter (direction and intensity) for the servo and the
cruise control. The transmitter crystal which is tuned to the receiver crystal ensures the perfect communication between transmitter and receiver.
Transmitter and receiver crystals are thus tuned to one another, so that signals of parallel transmitters cannot disturb this receiver (this model).
Resonance exhaust silencer
The resonance exhaust silencer serves, on the one side, to absorb sounds, on the other side, to display the optimal output of the engine.
Roll center
The roll center ist he theoretical point, over which the axle of a vehicle tilts in a curve. The imagined connection of the roll centers of the front and rear
axles is called roll axle and is ideally located vertically underneath the center of gravity. When the roll center is low, the leverage effect of the center of
gravity is high, the vehicle tends to bend and dislocate in corners around the roll axle. A high roll center decreases the lateral inclination.
