a. Rotate the control wheel forward (clockwise) or to the right if viewing the transmitter face. The front wheels should turn
to the right (when the model is viewed from the rear).
b. Rotate the control wheel backwards (counterclockwise) or to the left if viewing the transmitter face. The front wheels
should turn to the left (when the model is viewed from the rear). If the wheels move in the opposite direction check the
servo reversing settings on the Tx and switch the steering servo channel to the opposite setting. For more information
concerning channel reversing, refer to the “Channel Reversing (REV)” portion of the “Transmitter Settings and Setup” sec-
tion.
c. Place the model on an elevated surface such as a brick so that the wheels on the model can rotate freely and do not
touch the ground.
d. Squeeze the trigger on the model and the wheels should rotate in the direction to drive the model forward.
e. If the wheels rotate in the opposite direction switch the throttle reversing setting in your Tx. For more information con-
cerning channel reversing, refer to the “Channel Reversing (REV)” portion of the “Transmitter Settings and Setup” section.
f. Release the trigger on the Tx, the ESC should cease delivering power to the wheels and they should eventually come to a
full stop.
g. Extend the trigger on the Tx forwards. The wheels should rotate in the direction to drive the model backwards.
NOTE: This model has a reverse function. In order to protect the gears from stripping and becoming damaged the model will
not allow the model to go from forward directly into reverse. If moving forward, and then the trigger is extended outward the
breaks will first engage until the model is brought to a halt. Then return the throttle trigger to the neutral position and extend
the throttle trigger outward again and the model will move in reverse.

Transmitter Settings and Setup
The Pilotage Highlander is equipped with a three channel micro processer controlled Tx. This Tx allows one to fluidly and accu-
rately change the settings of your model to match the performance needed to successfully challenge various obstacles that your
model will encounter. A solid understanding of the Tx settings are important to attain the best performance from the model.
This Tx likewise allows you to store up to 10 unique model settings.
The settings are accessible through the LCD menu which: reverses channels, sets channel end points, and sets dual rate control
throws.
When you turn on your Tx, note the number displayed on the upper left hand corner of the display. This number indicates the
memory slot that has been accessed and what saved settings are currently in use. In the lower left corner the Tx power voltage is
displayed. On the right side of the LCD the illustration references the steering regime your Highlander is currently using.
In order to move from one point of the menu to another use the “SEL” button. The Tx will emit a beep and the power LED will
flash confirming the registry of the button being pushed. To change the value selected fields use buttons DT1 or DT2.
When setting every point in the menu, the values of channel 1 (steering) will first be adjusted, and then channel 2 (throttle). The
number of the channel being programmed is visible in the upper left corner of the display.
ATTENTION! If you do not make any adjustments to the Tx settings for 5 seconds following the change of the last parameter, the
Tx automatically reverts to the start up display.

2. Channel Reversing (REV)
Channel reversing allows one to change the directional response of the channels (steering - channel 1) or the forward-back-
wards response (throttle - channel 2) of the model to control commands.
In order to reverse the steering directional response:
a. Press the “SEL” button until “CH1” appears on the LCD.
b. Using the D1 or D2 buttons chose the directional control for channel 1 (Reverse or Normal).
c. Wait 5 seconds until the Tx records the adjustment and reverts to the main menu.
In order to reverse the throttle directional response:
a. Press the “SEL” button and select channel 2.
b. Using the D1 or D2 buttons choose the directional control for channel 2 (Reverse or Normal).
c. Wait 5 seconds until the Tx records the adjustment and reverts to the main menu.
1. Model Selection
a. Press the “SEL” button.
b. Turn the power of the Tx on. The setting indicating the memory slot in the upper left hand corner should begin to blink.
c. Use the D1 or D2 buttons to scroll through the memory slot options.
d. To progress to a new setting press the SEL button, otherwise wait 5 seconds and the menu will revert to the start up menu.
e. To save your selections and edits turn the Tx off and then on again.
3. Dual Rate (D/R)
The dual rate setting allows one to adjust the overall extent that the steering is allowed to travel. This allows you to reduce
the extent and sharpness of cornering that your model is able to achieve. This is important to ensure that your model does
not make directional changes that are too drastic which may cause your Pilotage Highlander to tip over while on a steep gra-
dient. When the dual rate setting is at 100% this means that the steering servo and subsequently the wheels on your model
will be allowed the fully available range of motion. If the dual rate is reduced to 50% the wheels will only move 50% of the
extent that they would have previously moved given the same command inputs.

4. End Point Adjustment (EPA)
The EPA sets the final turning point that the wheels should achieve to the left or right by setting the furthest point of travel
to one side or the other of the servo. Note however that when setting the EPA one should be careful not to set the maximum
setting to the left or right beyond the constraints that are mechanically possible provided the construction of your model.
Doing so risks damaging your servo and/or model.
End point settings are set independently both on the left and right sides. Setting the end point on the steering (channel 1) is
designed to ensure that the servo travel does not exceed the mechanical constraints of the model’s construction, hence pre-
venting damage to the servo. When adjusting the EPA of the throttle (channel 2) the top speed forward (L.F.U) and reverse
(R.B.D) is set regulating the top speed that your model can maintain.
