FAQs
What scale slot cars is this controller compatible with?

Troubleshooting
Controller not responding
Check that batteries are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. Ensure the controller is properly paired with the receiver and within range. Try re-pairing the controller and receiver.

Clean around the trigger and buttons to remove any dust or debris. If the issue persists, there might be an internal hardware problem requiring further inspection or support.
