2. Installation of Receiver and Servos
a. Using Separate Power Source for the Receiver
When using a separate receiver battery pack for the receiver, instead of sharing the motor battery and a
B.E.C. equipped speed control to operate the receiver and servos, please refer to the following diagram.
After installation, turn on the power to the transmitter first, then turn the receiver on(Warning: Always turns
the transmitter ON first and OFF last to prevent your vehicle from running away.). This will prevent
the receiver from picking up stray signals and going out of control. Now, move the controls to see if the
servos are moving properly. If not, check your wiring or crystals if the servos do not move at all.

b. Battery Eliminator Circuit with Mechanical Speed Control
The Battery Eliminator Circuit featured in the Hitec HP-2RNB receiver is capable of handling input voltage of
up to 7.2volts (6 cells). When using the B.E.C., always refer to the instruction manual of the vehicle you are
planning on using it in. This will provide the detailed information on how to properly connect it in your vehicle.
(Warning when using B.E.C., control may be lost as the battery voltage drops below the normal operating
voltage of the receiver). To be safe, do not run the motor battery completely dead, stop running the
vehicle as it starts to slow.
c. Connection with Electronic Speed Control
Electronic Speed Controls such as the Hitec SP-520 Plus, have a built in B.E.C. system inside the speed control
circuit. Plug the receiver connector from the speed control into the "THROTTLE" or #2 channel on the receiver,
and the steering servo into the "STEERING" or #1 channel on the receiver. Now you can connect the
main power to the speed control and when the power switch is turned on the speed control will regulate the power
that the receivers can use.
3. Transmitter, Receiver and Servo Settings
a. Checking Operation of the Servo
- Steering Servo Settings
- After installation of the servo and receiver into your model is complete, turn the power "ON" the transmitter
(fully extend the antenna), now turn on the receiver. (It is advisable to remove the pinion gear from your car
so that the wheels do not engage for this test)
