Adjustment

1

Using a Phillips screwdriver adjust the trigger

brake (reverse) stroke. (The screw moves the

throttle trigger stopper.)

• When the screw is turned clockwise, the stroke becomes

narrower. Adjust the stroke while watching the screw.

Note:

Mechanical ATL adjustment

Make this adjustment when you want to decrease the stroke of the brake (back) side of
the throttle trigger for operation feel.

Wheel tension adjustment

Make this adjustment when you want to change the wheel spring tension.

Adjustment

1

Using a 1.5mm hex wrench adjust the

wheel spring tension by turning the

screw inside the adjusting hole in the

arrow direction.

• The spring is set to the weakest tension at

the factory.

• When the adjusting screw is turned clock-

wise, the spring tension increases.

Once you have changed the mechanical stroke on the brake side, be sure to ad-
just the scale of the throttle channel accordingly by using the "Adjuster Function"
(page102).

Due to this change, you also need to adjust in most cases the travel of the throttle
servo by using "Data Setting."

If turned too far counterclockwise, the adjusting screw may fall out. The adjust-
ment range is up to 7 to 8 turns from the fully tightened (strongest) position. If
turned further than this, the adjusting screw may fall out.
