This concludes the programming portion of the set up. Below are a few more tips on the Lynx 3D
features that can improve you driving skills.

Brake Depth Adjustment:

This feature adjusts the physical limit
the throttle trigger moves in providing
the forward and reverse/brake func-
tion. It is adjusted by the screw on the
outside of the radio opposite the
trigger.

Wheel Tension Adjustment:

This feature adjusts the steering wheel tension. The tension is set in
the middle from the factory so it can be increased or decreased as
desired.

Racer Tip

Steering

Make sure you have the steering trim at or very close to 0% when the horn and wheels are straight. If
you change the neutral point too far from center you should reposition the servo horn to center. If trims
and horn are centered and the steering is still off, adjust the linkage to compensate.

Throttle

The trims are a valuable tuning tool and can be adjusted to change the vehicles handling. (-) trim will
add more “drag brake” when the trigger is released. This will give the vehicle more steering entering
the corner. Too much “drag brake” will cause the vehicle to overteer and slow the corner speed. (+)
trim will actually allow the car to creep forward when the throttle is released so you would have to hold
the brakes to keep it from moving when stopped. This will give the car less steering when entering a
corner but also helps keep the corner speed up. You may have to increase your steering travel to
allow you to use this set-up. It can be the hot ticket for touring cars to achieve maximum corner speed!
As always test these adjustment yourself for you particular application to see how the affect your
vehicle to find the optimum settings. Important: Always allow the trim settings to “Auto Save” by
letting the voltage reappear on the screen before proceeding with any other adjustments, this take
approximately 2 seconds.
