LV3 FUNCTIONS for the Expert Driver, Boats or Complex Models
Level LV3 Only Programming Adjustment of Throttle ATL ATL
DEFINITIONS:
•
ATL, electronic: (Adjustable throttle limiter) Adjusts total travel available to the
braking side of the throttle servo, similar to adjusting EPA, but allows adjustment
“on the fly” when ATL is assigned to a dial. When brake mixing is used in the
unmixed mode, this adjusts the rear brake servo without changing amount of braking
to front brake servo.
•
ATL, mechanical: Decreases the physical distance the brake trigger can move.
See p. 51.
AVAILABLE FOR: Braking only.
ADJUSTABILITY:
•
RATE: 0 (no braking at all) to 100% (same as EPA). Default: 100%.
•
Rate adjustment: May be easily adjusted while driving (if assigned to a dial/trim, see FUNC-DIAL, pp. 34-35). Default
assignment is to gripper dial 2.
INTERACTION: EPA affects total travel available to the servo. ATL is directly proportional to EPA.
DESIRED END RESULT: Quickly adjust overall braking sensitivity, including with a dial while driving on the track.
CAUTION: Dial 2 is assigned for ATL adjustment as a default, even if user does not realize it.

GOAL:
While using LV3:
•
Reassign the ATL adjustment to digital
trim 1;
•
Adjust the ATL setting from 100% to
20% (with the digital trim centered).
(If using LV1 or LV2, first change level
selection, see p. 12.)
Where Next:
STEPS:
Use FUNC-DIAL to assign ATL to digital
trim 1.
While viewing home screen, adjust digital
trim 1 until ATL reads 0.
Select ATL.
Adjust ATL to 20%.
Close function and menu.
INPUTS:
9 steps to DT1.
to ATL.
Move trim 1, if necessary, until display
reads
0 for ATL.
to 20%.
Adjust the throttle servo’s EPA ( EPA):See p. 18.
Set up channel 3 control ( CH3-POSI):See p. 40.
Set up brake mixing for separate front/rear brakes ( BRAKE-MIX):See p. 42.
Set up tilt mixing for boats ( BOAT-MODE):See p. 43.
