Saftey Precautions

This is a sophisticated radio controlled model that must be operated with caution and common

sense.

Failure to operate your Mini-T Pro in a safe and responsible manner could result in damage to the

model and property. The Mini-T Pro is not intended for use by children without direct supervision.

Team Losi and Horizon Hobby shall not be liable for any loss or damages, whether direct, indirect,

special, incidental, or consequential, arising from the use, misuse, or abuse of this product or any

product required to operate it.
This model is controlled by a radio signal that is subject to interference from many sources

outside your control. This interference can cause momentary loss of control so it is advisable to

always keep a safety margin in all directions to aviod collisions.

Always operate your model in an open area away from cars, traffic and people

Never run out into the street for any reason.

Never run your Mini-T Pro with low transmitter batteries

Carefully follow the directions and warnings for this and any optional support equipment (char-

gers,

rechargable battery packs, etc.) that you use.

Keep all chemicals, small parts and anything electrical out of the reach of children.

Required Equipment

2 Channel Radio System with Receiver

Electronic Speed Controller

Micro size Servo

Battery and Charger

Radio Installation

You will need a receiver, electronic speed control (ESC), and micro steering servo to complete

your Mini-T Pro. If you do not already have these we suggest you use one of the newer smaller

receivers and ESC’s as it will be easier to fit these in the space available. All of the popular radio

manufactures as well as Novak, GM Racing and LRP offer these items. We show mounting four of

the most popular steering servos. Please note that in most cases we suggest the use of a servo

saver as noted.

1) Cut a piece of double sided mounting tape to fit the bottom of both the receiver and ESC. Re-

move the paper backing from one side and apply to the bottom – Do Not remove the remaining

backing yet!

2) Test position the receiver and ESC on the top surface of the battery plate checking for adequate

clearance and convenient access for all wiring. Mark or note these positions before proceeding.

3) Remove the protective backing from the mounting tape on the receiver and ESC. Carefully

mount them on the battery plate.

Final Connections

Follow the radio manufactures instruc-

tions when making the final electronic

connections. Specifically, the orienta-

tion of the color-coded wires in the

various plugs where they plug into the

receiver. If you plan on removing the

wires attached to the motor mark the

endbell with a “+” at the red wire and “-“

at the black wire for future reference.

Follow the radio instructions to set the

proper steering and throttle movement.

Follow the instructions included with the

ESC for correct operation.

Metal geared version, follow the steps to

modify the servo horn.

Install the Servo into the Chassis as shown in

Figure 1. Insert the pins on the Servo Mounting

Post into the holes in the Chassis. Move the Servo Posts slightly until both the left and right Posts

are inserted in the holes in the Chassis. Next place the Chassis Brace on top of the Servo. The

pins from both Servo Mounting Posts should line up with the holes on the Servo Brace. If they do

not, move the Posts slightly until the pins fit into the holes. Secure the Brace to the Chassis with

the four Phillips head screws as shown in
