Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The FTX Kanyon comes in a Ready-to-Run (RTR) format, minimizing setup time. However, you will need to install AA batteries in the transmitter before first use. Ensure all components are securely connected before each run.
Compatibility
The included Etronix radio system is specifically designed for the Kanyon. The included battery is a Voltz 1800mAh NiMH 7.2v Battery. It is compatible with standard NiMH chargers.
Care
- Cleaning: After each use, especially after running in wet or muddy conditions, clean the crawler. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the crawler for any signs of damage or wear. Check the tires, suspension, and drivetrain.
- Battery Maintenance: Follow the charging instructions for the included NiMH battery. Avoid overcharging or completely discharging the battery to prolong its lifespan.
- Storage: Store the crawler in a cool, dry place when not in use. Remove the batteries from the transmitter and crawler if storing for an extended period.
