Turn on the transmitter and check for proper voltage, 10 - 12.4

volts (fig. 6). Slide the switch on the radio tray to the ON position

(fig. 7). With the front tires off the ground turn the steering

wheel on the transmitter left to right (fig. 8). The wheels should

turn smoothly and with ease. Also operate the throttle and

brake checking for smooth operation. Do not try to operate your

8IGHT RTR if any of the servos or any part of the radio is not

operating correctly. If the servos operate slowly it is possible the

batteries are low and must be recharged. Never try to operate

your 8IGHT RTR if either the transmitter or receiver batteries are

low.

end.

Slide the battery access panel opposite the hand strap back

and remove the cover (fig. 5A). Remove hex starter shaft from

the back side of the cover, (fig. 5B), and press the o-ringed

end into the drive cup. Slide the 6 cell, 7.2 volt, "stick pack"

(not supplied), into the Spin-Start and plug it in. Note that the

plug is made such that it can only be plugged in one way.

Carefully tuck the plug wires under the battery access panel

and slide shut.

Your 8IGHT RTR is equipped with front and rear adjustable

brakes (fig. 9). The upper blue knob adjusts the front brakes

and the lower blue knob adjusts the rear brakes. To adjust the

brakes turn the blue knob counter-clockwise for more brakes,

clockwise for less brakes. These adjustments are for fine

tuning and setting the brake bias. You will perform most of

your brake adjustments from the transmitter. The collar with

the set screw is used to adjust your throttle linkage.
