To break in the motor, run the vehicle at half throttle with occasional full throttle bursts for the first few battery packs. This helps seat the brushes and ensures optimal performance.
Regularly check the suspension arms, shocks, and linkages for wear and damage. Clean them after each use and lubricate the shock shafts to ensure smooth operation.
First, check the batteries in both the car and the remote. Ensure that they are fully charged and properly installed. Next, check the transmitter and receiver for any signs of damage or loose connections.
Remove the body shell and use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Gently rinse with water, avoiding electronics. Dry completely and apply a light lubricant on moving parts to prevent rust.
Replace the tires when you notice significant wear, which can affect grip and handling. Regular inspection after every 5-10 runs is recommended.
Avoid fully discharging the battery. Store batteries at 50% charge if not used for long periods. Use a proper charger and avoid overcharging.
Consider upgrading to a higher-capacity LiPo battery and using a pinion gear with more teeth, but ensure the ESC and motor can handle the increased load.
Check the steering linkages for damage or looseness. Adjust the trim on the remote control and, if necessary, manually adjust the turnbuckles for proper alignment.
Ensure proper ventilation for the motor and ESC. Avoid running the car in tall grass or heavy terrain, and consider using a fan or heat sink for additional cooling.
Signs include erratic acceleration or loss of power. Check all connections and ensure the ESC is properly calibrated. If issues persist, consider replacing the ESC.
