Auto Dual Rate:
This feature allows you to select individual high and low speed steering travel. First you must set the
throttle position where the rate will switch from #1 to #2. This is done by pulling the trigger to the
desired position and pushing the “Data” inc/dec buttons simultaneously. A “%” will show up on the
screen, this is the throttle % where the rate will change from #1 to #2, at this point, if you wish to
change it repeat the procedure again. Next, select the travel you wish to associate with the #1 and
#2 settings. This is done agter you exit the set up menu. Select the dual rate slide switch to the left,
adjust the #1 setting then pull the trigger until the #2 appears. You will use this feature to gain more
high or low speed steering according to throttle position. Important: Always allow the D/R setting to
“Auto Save” by letting the voltage re-appear on the screen before proceeding with any other
adjustments, this takes approximately 2 seconds.
Racer Tip
Auto D/R
Unique to the Lynx 3D, Auto Dual Rate can be a big advantage when you need to have more high speed
steering than low speed or vice versa. Let’s say your car is understeering (Pushing) under power but
oversteering (Loose) when you let off the throttle entering the corner. With the Auto D/R setting you can
select two different rates that will change at the programmable throttle position you select (refer to the
programming instructions on how to select settings). You would then select the #1 position to have
reduced travel and the #2 position to have more. Swap the settings on #1 and #2 for a car that oversteers
at high speed and understeers at low speed.
Standard Dual Rate
A must have for any race, this feature is adjusted from the digital switch marked D/R on the handle. To
distinguish from Auto D/R to standard D/R the dual rate switch on the front of the transmitter must be
selected to the right, it will read #3 on the display screen when accessed. Use the dual rates to fine tune
the handling of the vehicle by increasing or decreasing steering servo travel. If the vehicle is oversteering
(Loose) pull back on the switch to decrease the steering. If it is understeering (Pushing) increase the
steering by pushing the switch forward. The percentage of steering will automatically pop up on the LCD
screen. You can bump it one percentage point at a time fro fine tuning or hold it down for a more drastic
change. Continue to adjust this setting until the vehicle is more controllable and handling the way you
want.
