I want to give this car to a youg child so I want to make sure if I can slw the car so that he can learn without damaging the car at high speeds. Thanks.

I don't know about this R/C, but traxxas slash 2wd and any traxxas with XL-2.5, XL-5, XL-10, EVX-2, VXL-3s, and VXL-3m speed control has a option to set it to "training mode". ESC Profile Selection: to allow 50% forward and 50% reverse (Profile #3), With the ESC off, press and hold the EZ Set button until the LED turns solid green, then solid red and then begins blinking

Not really but u can install a lower tooth count on pinion or run the smallest battery possible

All you can do without buying a different controller is just put a 6 cell nimh battery. Its much slower with a nimh battery. You can buy a controller that does allow you to adj the throttle but for the one it comes with u can't.

It is true most new cars have encoded keys, these keys have a unique code matched to the car's ECU. The module required is to bypass the key code by having the module programed wit the unique code , so that it is provided as if the key was inserted in the ignition. If you don't buy the module you would not be able to use the remote start feature. Everything else would still work tho.

No--the principle is induction of the coil, which requires a ferrous target that moves proximate to the coil. Depending on the level of sensitivity you could have a car drive by very slowly and it will not alarm. I have mine about 30 ft from the road and fast moving school buses set it off; a slow one does not. Interestingly but not surprisingly, a close lightning strike will also set it off.

On the bottom of the large round section of the remote there is what looks like a circle with two arrows. Pressing this symbol changes the direction. The other multi dots on this same section are for the speed control. Hope this helps

What I can tell you is that it always starts on the lowest speed which is quite slow. After starting, you can set faster speeds as required.

It does not have a high and low setting on the controls, mine doesn't cycle that much and it seems to go a degree or two beyond what it is set at before it comes on. with that said I seem to recall the manual mentioning a jumper that could be used to change the amount of leeway before it came on and off. But I cannot say for sure.

I'm pretty sure that is a setting that can be changed on the vehicle settings. Refer to your owners manual for instructions. Hope this helps good luck.

I bought one for my daughter last year for Xmas. She was 8 years old. I taught her all the controls, and adjusted the throttle down so it wouldn't go too fast. Month later, I was adjusting the throttle to go faster. I think the age limit would be 6 for the youngest. But, they need to be somewhat responsible, comprehend that it could be dangerous. ENJOY & HAVE FUN!!!

My husband hooked this unit up according to the instructions provided and all my steering wheel controls work just fine. Based on the radio/cd car unit I purchased, I do not have the option where you can set the volume to go up or down according to how fast I am driving. Hope this helps

Not tow of the same car, unless it specifies "variable channel/frequency" Look for cars that name what frequency they use, then choose two using different frequencies, or at least one that has the variable frequency. If they are on the same frequency, the cars will get confused whether they're taking orders from you or your buddy, if that makes sense. I did the above and it is great fun to race them against each other! good luck.

HI- I got mine on with some effort- warm it up first inside the house, or plug it in while not on the car's steering wheel- being warmer makes it much more pliable. do NOT microwave it etc. Be sure your car is already warm also- then start at the top and position it, and work your way down both sides with your fingers. pull it onto the wheel using a blunt instrument such as maybe a paint stirring stick, or the back end of a putty knife - not the blade end. Push it toward the back as you go, keeping one hand on the cover to prevent it from unpeeling. Takes a bit of effort, but it works - too bad the item doesn't work for very long (we got one use out of it before it died).

On the cars there is switch indicating a 1,2, or off. Same with controllers. Set one car and controller to 1 and the other car and controller to 2. Have fun.

Yes, this kit only works to motorize manually a model. You'll need to add a Lego Remote Control to control the movement, either fwr or reverse but no steering, unless you add a motor for that, all is possible. But this kit only works for moving and power the motor and lights in a model. If you build a car make sure to include the battery is incorporated in it, otherwise you have to carry the battery manually while moving the car. BTW this is impel also but is part of your design.I hope this works for you, is a fun kit.

Nope. The child control it with a gas peddle and brake peddle. Great little car. My 4 year old son loves it. Can drive it really slow or a little fast. 8mph doesn't seem a lot but this little car can move.

Kim: this is not remote control, they run on a track that has a grove in it for each car and the speed is controlled by hand units shaped like a pistol with triggers. Your boys will have allot of fun with many hours of us.

There are two Range Technology devices that I know of. One keeps the engine in 4 cylinder mode longer, and one disables it completely. I have the one that disables the 4 cylinder mode completely.
