Some rookie (dumb !) questions.

Post by Comrade stumpy »

I have recently got a torro king tiger and have a couple of questions.
1) Why do I have to wait over 5 min for the tank to warm up ( head light to stop flashing ). What is it doing in this time ?
2) In the box was an antenna but no mention of it is made in the instructions, should it be fitted if so where and how ?

Cheers
Stewart :D

If you listen you will hear the smoker warming up though it should not be taking 5 minutes, as to the aerial with a 2.4 system you do not need one to operate the R/C but for the sake of making it look right you will see an antenna mount with a hole, it goes there. shaun
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

It shouldn't take 5 minute to "warm up". There is nothing to warm up other than maybe the smoker but definitely not 5 minutes. The only reference to 5 minutes might be the binding of the 2.4Ghz radio in the instructions, but in reality it is more like 5 seconds.
