It is sometimes necessary or convenient to reverse the output 
direction of the servo. The direction of the rotation for each individual 
servo can be changed by simply flipping the reversing switch that 
corresponds to the channel number on the receiver where the servo 
is plugged in. Under normal circumstances, Ch1 is steering, Ch2 is

the Throttle Trim knob clockwise or counter-clockwise, the 
throttle neutral can be adjusted as needed.
HELPFUL HINT

On a gas powered model, set the trim to neutral and adjust the throttle linkage to the point where the 
carburetor is fully closed in accordance with your engine instruction manual.
 
Servo travel
Trim adjustments will affect the overall servo travel; check the brake side (backward) movement when

If you have used most of the trim movement to get the servo to the neutral position, re-center the servo 
horn closer to the neutral position and inspect your throttle linkage.
