The Traxxas TQ-3 Radio System
Your Revo is equipped with the TQ-3 radio system. The TQ-3 is a 3-channel system that provides up to a quarter mile range and control for up to three
servo outputs. Revo is equipped with two high-torque steering servos connected via a “Y” plug adapter (one input, two equal outputs). The TQ-3 works
in conjunction with the OptiDrive
Electronic Shift Module to monitor and control the input and output signals for the throttle and shifting servos
(channels). The OptiDrive monitors the voltage of the on-board RX Power Pack. The "Function" LED will flash red if the battery voltage is too low.
