I have a number of Arrma vehicles now (9) - full convert from Traxxas ?. I hate having a different transmitter for each vehicle so I bought a DX5C radio and bound it to my cars that have the 6100AT receivers. Bought additional receivers for the other vehicles.
Today I bound the transmitter to my new Tallion 6s. Reading the manual it says to put the trigger in the position you want it for the failsafe when binding. I used full brake - which I also used in the other 8 vehicles. Turns out I am dumb!!!! Was talking to a neighbor today and put down my transmitter and was talking for a good while. I ignored the transmitter beeping and it eventually shut off sending my Tallion 6s backwards at full throttle!!! Lucky it ran into a tall grass plant at the end of my yard and became entangled and didn’t destroy itself or worse yet hurt someone!!! 3 more feet to the left and it would have had a straight shot at my neighbors house. I now need to re-bind all of my vehicles tomorrow and I guess keep the throttle at neutral so the cars just drift to a stop or stay put when losing signal.
Luckily I didn’t ruin anything!!!
