Order No. 5031 Operation instructions RADICATOR 2 Caution: please read through the operating instructions carefully and in full before you attempt to run the model for the first time. This will help you avoid mistakes when handling your RC track racing car Itis in your own interests to study the safety notes. Once you have gained some experience with your model car and are familiar with its handling, it is a good idea to read through the notes again as they will then have greater relevance. We at GRAUPNER are constantly working on the development of all our model cars, motors and radio control systems; for this reason we are obliged to reserve the right to introduce modifications to the kit contents in terms of technology, design and fittings. Please understand that we cannot entertain claims against us if you find that parts differ from the stated specificalivns and iliusuations. If you should nnd any part in the kit which is faulty in terms of material or manufacturer, send it hack to us in its original state and we will supply a replacement Safety notes If you are a beginner to radio-controlled model cars we strongly recommend that you beg the assistance and advice of an experienced model car operator for your first attempts at driving the model, Your first step should be gentle practice on a broad, open site in order to minimise the risk of collisions. If you ignore this advice you can easily damage property or even cause serious injury to people, RC models are not toys. Young people under 14 years should only be allowed to operate this model under the supervision of a competent adult. Only run your model where it will not disturb or endanger other people, and certainly not on public streets, close to railway tracks or in the vicinity of hightension overhead cabies. Many people hope that their personal public liability insurance policy will cover them for model car operation, but not all insurance companies take the same view We strongly recommend that you ask your insurer whether you are covered, and take out a separate policy if necessary. We also recommend that you join a model car racing club and become a member of the national governing body for model car sport. Ask at your model shop for details of your local club. In most cases club membership includes third-party insurance which covers you for damage and injury caused by your mode! car Radio control equipment For example: JUNIOR D 4 X SSM 2-channel RC set C4 RACE Order No, 3137 for the 27 MHz band Order No. 3153 for the 27 MHz band or Order No, 3152 for the 40 MHz band; or Order No. 3154 for the 40 MHz band 4-X zZ-channel RU set Order No, 3129 for the 27 MHz band Order No, 3150 for the 40 MHz band; or MC Profi-Car 2-channel computer system Order No, 4767 for the 27 MHz band Order No. 4764 for the 40 MHz band You will need a powerful servo for the steering function; it should be rated at a minimum of 4 kg/om torque, e.g. C 4421 high-performance super-servo, Order No. 3692 The batteries in your radio control system tend to self-discharge (lose capacity) when stored. For this reason it is absolutely essential to charge the transmitter and receiver batteries correctly before you operate the modal. At low temperatures hattery capacity falls off markedly, ‘so running times will be shorter in cold conditions, All NC batteries should be checked and their capacity measured at regular intervals. If you notice the servos running noticeably more slowly, or if the transmitter meter needle falls back into the red area (or the transmitter's computer low-battery alarm trips), then you should stop running the model and recharge the batteries. Details of charging procedures are included in the operating instructions supplicd with your batlery charger. When the batteries are fully charged you should check that the radio control system is operating correctly. Do this every time you intend running the model, ar.d carry out a range check now and then. This is the procedure switch on the transmitter and receiver but leave the transmitter aerial collapsed Walk about 25 to 30 m away from the model and check that all the servos respond to your stick movements in the correct direction and to the appropriate extent. Repeat the check with the motor running, with an assistant hoiding the modei car. Always switch on the transmitter first, then the receiver, otherwise the servos connected to the receiving system will often carry out uncontrolled movements. At the end of a run reverse the sequence: switch off the receiver first, then the transmitter. If you do not keep to this order, i.e. the receiver is ON when the transmitter is OFF, then the receiver may respond to other transmitters. interference signals and so on The servos may run forcibly to their end-stops (motor stalled), and will then discharge the receiver battery very quickly because the stail current is so high. Always extend the transmitter aerial fully before you operate your model car. Itis important to avoid channel clashes - i.e. two transmitters operating on the same channel. Check constantly with your modelling colleagues to avoid this problem. Preparing the RC system Before you run your model check the following aspects of your radia contral system: 1. Is the transmitter battery fully charged / are there new dry cells in the transmitter? 2. Is the receiver battery fully charged / are there new dry cells in the receiver battery hoider? If the battery is flat or not correctly charged, the car will not respond correctly to the controls. 3. Does the steering servo work properly, and move in the correct “sense”? 4. Does the throttle servo work properly, and move in the correct “sense"? The first step is to establish the neutral (centre) position of the steering and throttle servos. Connect the steering servo to receiver channel 1, the throttle servo to channel 11 and the receiver battery to the "Batt" socket. The switch should be at the OFF setting, and the transmitter battery switch in the ON position. Set the steering and throttle trims on the transmitter to centre. NiCd batteries NiCd batteries can be recharged (up to about 1000 times), whereas normal dry cells cannot. NiCu packs uiffer int number uf cells, well capacity arid weigh, Fur your ude Gal you reed a 7.2V NiCd drive battery, It is important to keap to the charging recommendations provided by the battery manufacturer, such as charge currents and charge times. If you wish to fastcharge your batteries check that the manufacturer expressly describes them as suitable for high charge currents. The charge current which actually nOws may vary somewhat from the nominal value because of a wide input voltage range, differences between cell types and battery size (capacity). This must be taken into account when you are calculating the charge time Please bear in mind that new batteries do not reach full capacity until they have undergone several charge / discharge cycles, and you may also find that an automatic charger terminates the charge process prematurely when connected to a new pack. We recommend that you give your batteries severai charge / discharge cycles to ensure that the automatic charge termination circuit works correctly, and that your batteries are accepting a full capacity charge.

The charge outputs and connecting leads must not be modified, interconnected in any way or short-circuited, and should always be uncoiled when charging is in progress. ‘* Check the charger regularly for damage to cables, connectors, case etc. If you find that any part is damaged, do not use the charger * The charger and the battery to be charged must be placed on a non-flammable, heat-resistant surface for charging Keep inflammabie and volatile materials well away from the charging area. * To avoid any possibility of short-circuits always connect the charge lead plug to the charger first, then connect the NC battery to the charge lead * Check before charging: are all connections in good order, or are there intermittent contacts? Please bear in mind that fast-charging NC batteries can be dangerous; you should never leave the charger running unsupervised. * Battery chargers develop considerable heat when in use. The slots in the case are designed to promote a flow of cooling air through the unit, and they must not be covered or sealed Provide good ventilation so that the unit does not get too hot, and leave plenty of time for the charger to cool off aner a fast-charge. Protect the unit from direct sunshine, dust, damp and rain ‘* The battery charger is designed for connection to a 12V car battery or the 230V/50 Hz AC mains supply. Before you connect the charger to the car battery, and for as long as it remains connected, the vehicle's engine must be stopped. It the charger Is connected to a car battery then that battery must not be connected to a car battery charger at the same time. The charger must never be connected to the car battery and mains socket at the same time. * Battorios must always be removed from the equipment before charging. ‘* The following types of battery must not be connected to the charger: - packs consisting of different types of cell - mixtures of old and new cells, or cells of different make: -non-rechargeable basteries (dry cells); - batteries which are not expressly stated to be suitable for charging at the currents which this charger stipplies; - faulty or damaged basteries or cells; - packs which are already fully charged, hot, or not fully discharged; - batteries with integral charging or charge termination circuits; ~ batteries which are permanently installed in an item of equipment, or are electrically connected to other components.

Order No. 6406 BEC system We recommend the use of a radio control system with integral BEC system. The BEC system eliminates the need for a separate receiver battery, as the power supply for the receiving system is derived ffom the main drive battery. The elimination of the receiver battery makes the model lighter and thereby improves its pertormance. The receiver and servos require an operating voltage of 4.8 - 6 Volts, If a 7.2 V drive battery is used in the model, the voltage has to be reduced electronically to 4.8 -6 Volts, and this is done by the BEC system. If your radio control system does not feature a BEC system you will need to use the BEC switch harness, Order No. 3028, in conjunction with the adaptor lead, Order No. 3029.10 An electronic control system can be used instead of the standard mechanical speed controller.

If you wish to use drive batteries fitted with different connectors you will need to replace the double plug. In this case it is essential to maintain correct polarity, as reversed polarity will immediately ruin the speed controller. * Avoid switching directly from high-speed forwards running to reverse, as this can overload the system and cause damage. * Don't open the throttle if the car is stopped by an obstacle, as this would again cause an overload situation which could cause damage to the electronic * The speed controller is designed to provide power to the receiver and up to 2 additional servos from the drive battery. Don't place a higher load on it, as this will damage the control electronics * Ifyou expect to run the car in rainy conditions and/or on a wet surface, pack the receiver, servo and speed controller in watertight protective coverings. ‘* Check that all plug-in connections make perfect contact. The contacts must be corrosion-free. ‘* When installing the speed controller be sure to provide good air circulation so that it is cooled effectively. At the end of each running session disconnect the drive battery fram the speed controller, otherwise there is a chance that the motor might burst into life accidentally, with resultant damage to the speed controller and drive battery, Essential tools Cross-point screwdriver, Pointed-nose pliers, Side-cutters, Lexan shears, Box spanner, Balsa knife, Hand-held drill, Flat file, Twist drills: 2.5, 4.5, 6.2 mm @ Allen keys: 1.5 2 2.5mm A/F, Thread lock fluid, Cyano glue, Glasspaper. Installing the steering and throttle servos Unscrew the trackrods from the two steering arms right and left Unscrew the front steering servo mounting plate from the chassis. Fix the steering servo to the steering servo mounting plate using four cross-point screws. The setvo oulpul should face the narrow side of the plate Switch on the transmitter and check that the servo works correctly as follows: set both stick trims to centra, then connect the steering servo ta the "Channel 1" sacket on the recaiver, and the switch harness plug to the "Battery" socket. Charge up the drive battery fully and connect it to the battery plug. Switch the receiver system on by operating the "ON/OFF" switch; the steering servo should now move to centre. Press the servo-saver onto the steering servo output device with the trackrods at the front, facing the narrow side of the mounting plate. Fix the servo-saver to the servo using the screw ‘supplied Screw the steering servo mounting plate to the chassis with the servo-saver facing forward and down Align the front axle carefully and set it to the ~straight ahead" position, Screw the two trackrods to the steering arms. Pack up the car so that all the wheei axles are unobstructed and free to rotate. Move the steering stick on the transmriter to both sides to check the steenng travel of the front axle. When you have done that set the front wheels to neutral (centre) by screwing the trackrods in or out, and adjust the length of the trackrods until the front wheels are exactly parallel and pointing straight ahead. If this adjustment is not carried out carefully the model car will not run straight, and may have a different turning radius to left and right. Screw the speed controller to the servo brackets using four screws, with the speed controller ‘output device facing the rear axle, Connect the speed controller servo to the "Channel 2” socket on the receiver. Connect a fully charged drive battery to the battery plug. At this point only one motor cable should be connected, Set all the sticks and trims on the transmitter to centre then switch it on; the servos will now run to their centre position. Place the servo arm on the speed controller servo. Check that the servo is exactly central in the fore-and-aft direction. Move the speed controller to the centre position (motor stopped) by hand and press the ball-link on the speed controller pushrod onto the ball-end bolt fitted to the steering arm. Pack up the model car again so that all the wheels are clear of the ground. Connect the second power Cable anid Check thal all the model Gal's furiclivis work CuneKly, When you move the throttle stick to full-throttle and reverse in turn, the speed controller should move reliably to the final stage in each direction. If this is not the case check the adjustment range of the controller arm and make adjustments to the speed controller pushrod. The wiper contacts of the controller arm must also make good contact with the controller board, Ail the rotating parts should turn freely. Once you are satisfied that everything is working properly switch off the RC system and disconnect the drive battery. Itis important that the electric motor is adequately suppressed We recommend fitting a suppressor hiter, 0.g. Order No. 2361, The filter is factory assembled and is simply soldered between the electric motor and the connecting leads. Shock absorbers The four long oil-filled shock absorbers supplied with your GRAUPNER on-road car have a very significant influence on its handling on the road. Whenever you dismantle and reassemble the shock absorbers - do it carefully! Always assemble the units in pairs (front and rear). This is the reason: if one of the front shock absorbers is set slightly softer or harder than the other, your car will land at an angle after a jump, and will handle differently when turning to left or right The same applies to the rear shocks. The damping effect shouild always be slightly softer at the front than at the rear The running height of the model is very important, It should be set so that the front and rear suspension arms return to a position parallel to the ground when you raise the model 20 to 25 cm and let it fall. This ensures adequate suspension travel in both directions (up and down). If your model does not return to the correct running height, adjust the spring sleeves. Selecting the correct grade of shock absorber oil is also significant. It is normally advisable to start with a lighter oil and then experiment with a heavier grade. If the chassis jumps excessively on a rough surface, you should use a heavier oil. If the tyres lift from the track surface under the same conditions, the oil is too thick. In this case you should try a lighter oil so that the suspension responds more quickly. The aim is to ensure that the tyres stay in contact with the track surface for as long as possible The hardness of the damping can also influence the steering characteristics of your model car Itis adjusted by setting the front and rear suspension to a correspondingly soft or hard setting, The stiffness of the damping is influenced by the characteristics of the springs, oil viscosity, the angle ot the shock absorbers, and the combination of these three tactors. A sott rear end yields better ground adhesion (traction), but at the expense of steering response. The handling of your car will tend to be more predictable because it will understeer through turns, i. it will drift towards the outside of the turn. In contrast, if the rear suspension is too hard the steering effect will be stronger but the car will tend to "wag its tail" and skid unless the driver is very skilful If the front suspension is adjusted to a softer setting the steering effect will be amplified and vice versa: a harder setting reduces steering response, When the suspension damping is set correctly - the chassis not tending to jump, and the wheels. not tending to hop about - you will find that there is a narrow range of adjustment available over witch the Herdiiess Of Ue furl atid rear suspension Gan be fine-lunied, This is a Vichy adjustment which can only be carried out by making very finely graduated changes in the viscosity of the shock absorber oil Weight distribution Always bear in mind when adjusting the shock absorbers that correct weight distribution is of the utmost importance if your GRAUPNER on-road car is to exhibit the faultless handling of which it is capable. Any given tyre will provide maximum traction if the weight of the vehicle is acting upon it, When you reduce speed and enter a turn, the car's weight shifts increasingly onto the two front wheels and tyres, thus giving maximum steering effect. The opposite is also true’ during acceleration the car's wight is shifted onto the rear tyres, which then give maximum traction The softer the suspension, the greater the weight shift. From this viewpoint it makes sense to set up the suspension as soft as possible, to give the fastest response, but not so sofl that the shock absorption system has no effect. Between these two extremes there is a "golden mean", and the only way of establishing this setting is to do plenty of practice at your own racing track. Adjusting the wheels The first step: satisfy yourself that the steering trim on the transmitter is at neutral (centre). Now adjust the servo-saver and the trackrods until the wheels are exactly "straight ahead" This ensures that steering travels (turning radii) are the same on each side. Front wheel toe-in of no more than 1 - 3° is sufficient to prevent the car "wandering" on the track, When you are just getting to know your model car's handling we recommend that you set up all four wheels in such a way that they stand vertical to the ground at normal running height. It is a good idea to hold a setsquare or engineer's square against each wheel in turn so that you can be sure that the wheels are set up exactly, When you press down on the suspension you will notice that the wheels exhibit a slight amount of negative camber. The reason for this is that it is desirable to reduce the positive camber of the outside wheels when the car is entering a turn, as this increases the contact area and thus the traction of the outside tyres, and therefore raises the speed at which the car can negotiate turns. However, the change in negative camber also causes a reduction in contact area of the rear tyres when the suspension is compressed by the force of acceleration If your track has more straights than turns you may find that it is not necessary to reduce (positive) wheel camber when the car is turning. In this case we recommend that the rear wheels are lett vertical to the ground over the entire range ot suspension travel Note that a slight increase in negative camber on the front suspension will improve your on-road car's steering characteristics when the suspension is under load, when the model is used off-road. But remember that too great a change in negative camber produces a marked reduction in the contact area of the tyres. The way to better driving Improving your driving skills is an essential aspect of RC racing, but its importance is often under-estimated. The slightest change to the settings of your model car have an effect on its handling on the track, but you will not be able to detect and understand these nuances unless you drive smouthily aid evenly. The followin is a series Uf lips which will help you lo revurd, faster times lap by lap. 41. Avoid collisions and "knots" of cars It is often the case that the winner of a race is not the fastest car, but the one which gets tangled up in the fewest accidents. Always drive carefully at points where you notice cars colliding regularly. Keep a safe distance behind cars which are slower than you or are being driven by inexperienced operators. Driving too close to his rear bumper may well cause such a driver to panic, cause an accident and get you involved in it. You will lose less time if you wait for a slow car to negotiate a difficult turn than by trying to overtake, getting tangled in an accident and having to wait until the track marshal puts your car back into action - assuming he is not dozing Apart from the fact that such accidents cost you time, they may cause damage to your car which could eliminate you from the race altogether. Bear in mind that a collision with a wall when your car is at its maximum speed of 40 - 48 km/hr is approximately equivalent to dropping your car nose-first from the roof of a house! RC buggies could be made so strong that they were absolutely indestructible, but they would then be far too heavy to be competitive. The best solution is quite simple: "drive carefully!” 2. The right technique through turns The corract way to negotiate a tum is to approach on the outside of the truck, run to the inside at the mid-point of the turn, and finally exit the tum on the outside ot tne track again If there is heavy traffic on the track you will not always be able to keep to the optimum line through turns. In this case it is better to reduce speed and keep as close as possible to the inside of the turn, Cars crammed together in dense traffic usually get pushed towards the outside of the turn, and if this happens you might find a way through. Track conditions may also force you to adopt a different line through turns. Often it is better to steer around pot-holes and bumps instead of running straight over them in an effort to maintain the optimum line. Reduce the throttle setting when entering a turn, and open up again as the car comes out of the tum, It is best to close the throttle gradually at the start of the tum, as this shifts the vehicle's weight smoothly onto the front wheels and thereby improves the car's steering characteristics (see also the section on ~Shock absorbers"). Don't accelerate too strongly as your car leaves the turn because it will then tend to skid outwards and, if it understeers, run into the outside wall. Gentle, gradual throttle control and smooth steering is the key to getting through turns quickly. "Cavalier" starts and violent braking increase rates of wear in your model, increase the risk of accidents and result in lower average speeds. It is important that the car keeps on 2-rolling! It you aim at driving smoothly at all times your lap times will improve quite naturally 3, The "view forward” Don't gaze fixedly at your car!.It is far better to look slightly in front of it, and especially when it is entering a turn. Look where you want the car to go and steer it there using your peripheral vision 4. Avoid “flying” Your model car is faster on the ground than in the air, so keep it on the ground! If the car does jump, you should be aware that the way you handle the throttle decides how it will land aflenuaids. If you reduce Uollle the miunient the model reached the apex of ils jurnp, iL will teria to land front wheels first. If you leave the throttle wide open while the car is in the air and close it just before it lands, the model will tend to land with the nose slightly raised. The best method is to close the throttle gradually in the air so that the car lands on an even keel The correct combination of opening and closing the throttle may well vary from jump to jump, and this is another area where you need to experiment and develop a keen eye. This only comes only from experience Important: don't qver let your model car land with the throttle wide open! The jerks and violent shock loads which result can easily cause serious damage to the transmission and other parts of the power train, 5, Don't panic! If a faster car appears to be zooming past you, stay cool and let him go. If you try to battle it out with him you could so easily make a serious mistake and wreck your car. It is fairly certain that you will often be able to overhaul a faster car if you maintain a correct line and avoid collisions. With luck you will be able to overtake him through the turns. In this way you may be able to overtake the other vehicle several times in the course of a race Replacement parts GRAUPNER GmbH & Co.
