Patent Pending Training
Mode (Profile #3) reduces
forward and reverse throttle
by 50%. Training Mode
is provided to reduce the
power output allowing
beginning drivers to better
control the model. As driving
skills improve, simply change
to Sport or Race Mode for
full-power operation.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
The EVX-2 is equipped with thermal shutdown protection to guard
against overheating caused by excessive current flow. If the operating
temperature exceeds safe limits, the EVX-2 will automatically shut
down and the EVX-2 LED will flash red. The LED on the face of the EVX-
2 will continuously flash red, even if the throttle trigger is moved back
and forth. After the speed control cools down to a safe level,
the LED will continuously shine green. The EVX-2 will once again
function normally.
EVX-2 Profile Selection
The speed control is factory set to Profile #1. To change the profile,
follow the steps on described below. The speed control should be
connected to the receiver and battery, and the transmitter should be
adjusted as described previously. The profiles are selected by entering
the programming mode.
