If
you have recently purchased one of our Ready-To-Run GT Plus kits, T3 RTR, or
a Nitro TC3 RTR, you may experience a rapid, persistent "beeping" alarm
signal emitted when you turn on your Ace Jaguar transmitter. This alarm
(intended to warn you that you are at full throttle, full brake, or low
battery power)
temporarily disables the transmitter for safety reasons, but may not
properly re-set in some cases. You can fix this
yourself in a few simple steps with a Phillips screwdriver, straight-blade
screwdriver, and a small pair of pliers or a 5/16" nut driver.

1. Remove the battery cover and the eight AA batteries from the transmitter.
2. Open the radio by removing the 8 screws that hold the case together. There are six screws in the outer case, and two longer screws inside the battery compartment.
3. Open the case halves and lay the transmitter open as shown, exposing the throttle trigger assembly.
4. Pull the trigger assembly straight up and off and set aside.
5. Pull the trigger straight up and off with a small pair of pliers.
6. Pre-set the trigger pivot post by turning with a small straight-blade screwdriver until the slot is near straight horizontal.
7. Press the trigger assembly back onto the trigger pot. Be sure the white plastic part of the trigger installs inside the black plastic "cap" as shown.
8. Adjust the neutral position level at 50/50 position, then check if the slot is horizontal or not. If not, hold the trigger and re-set the trigger pivot post until the slot is straight horizontal.
9. Reassemble the case, and
re-install the AA batteries. That’s it! Your radio should work properly now.
