Rlaarlo Omni terminator

[cris_]

Hello, i received my rlaarlo omni terminator a couple days back but every time i turn it on it accelerates om its at full speed and then stops suddenly and accelerates again, I'm thinking its the reciever or transmittee or can it be a bad esc as well?

Welcome in @cris_ , a couple things we can try, first of all did you turn on the transmitter first and then the rig?
That is most important. With just the car on without the transmitter, it will get confused and could take off.
Turn the transmitter on first and then the car and to shut it down, shut the car first and then the trasmitter.
Another thing to try is recalibrate your system, your owners manual will show you how.
Is your steering working?

Welcome to RCTALK.COM!!!
Def check that the radio trim is set to center. Then try bind and calibrate procedures.

Thank you, yes I've tried both ways, reciever first then transmitter, then transmitter first then reciever. I've been looking in the owners manual and can't find anything to help. Yes the steering is working.

On page 2 of manual, mid page, "rebinding the remote control with the car"
Do this.

Forgot to mention this, thanks Mike.

Forgot to mention this, thanks Mike.

I forgot this step before too. Took hours before someone else noticed what I'd done.

Also, just to 100% verify...

All batteries are charged 100%? This is step 1 when trouble shooting.
Transmitter batteries new? Not from tv remote?

I dont know if I'm blind bit i can't find rebinding procedures anywhere, and also yes i charged the battery before using and used new batteries.

I downloaded the manual online. There were only a couple pages in english.
This was in the middle of troubleshooting I think.
Just read slowly. Its in there.

I tried it and now the car keeps accelerating even with the transmitter off

Check the trim on your transmitter like Mike mentioned. Set it to zero if it has a trim.

 

[TeknoJ]

You need to turn the transmitter on first, this has been said already. Its so the car doesn’t take off on you

Also, if not binding, try moving the transmitter a few feet away when binding. Sometimes that helps.

Hello everyone, i figured out the issue, it was a faulty transmitter, i ordered a new one on amazon next day delivery, received and everything works fine now, thanks everyone for the help.
