How to Align Servo in XMOD

The XMOD is a miniature radio-controlled (RC) vehicle made popular by Radio Shack. These tiny cars are capable of driving both indoors and outdoors, making them highly versatile toys. However, it's important to maintain control over your vehicle no matter how much you improve its performance. Learning how to align your XMOD's servo will ensure that your vehicle only travels in the direction you intend.

Instructions

- 1
  Turn on the power to both the car and the transmitter, then place the vehicle on the ground. Apply enough throttle to start moving the car forward at a slow pace.
- 2
  Watch the vehicle's path, and assess if it drives in a straight line when you do not touch the steering wheel on the transmitter.
- 3
  Use the steering trim knob to align the wheels; the trim is used to make minor adjustments to the steering alignment. If your car veers off to the left, turn the trim knob (located at the top of the transmitter) clockwise until the vehicle drives a straight line. If your car veers to the right, turn the trim knob counterclockwise until the vehicle drives straight. Make small adjustments until the vehicle is perfectly aligned.
