no i mean the full throtle auto start that can be activated
by pulling the trigger to full and then just backing off a bit
to get full power at the start of the race.

no.

the btn's can only be set to a few simple functions.

the better way to use the auto start is to pull the throttle slightly and hold untill you want to change the throttle.

are you using auto start for stock?

1st thing, get rid of the ugly standard steering wheel and put on a cool looking custom wheel
(the radio will then obey your ever command and you will go faster)

i don't know about that, it had the opposite affect on my brothers mars r. anyway why would you change from the standard (foam) wheel to the after market wheel (rubber). in nsw ppl go faster with foam.

(can't wait to see how you bite fof!)

Dragonfart, no wonder you are always banging into people at the hill everyone knows you dont have any traction at the hill on foams. maybe the rest of us should chip in and buy you a rubber wheel, it would save us all in frustration and parts

Default Mars R wheel Stinks

When i received my Mars R, I looked at it once and hid in the box till I got a good looking wheel, and I like the smalled diameter with the lower profile tyre as well, just can't get the "DOOF DOOF" thing happening with it though

Not seeing the blue led is no dramma... install a RGB led.
Jaycar sells an RGB led that cycles through 7 colors. looks cool and makes your radio a one of a kind (take not that it takes hours to get a mars apart!). Unfortanatly it doesn't seem to put other drivers off on the stand. I think i need to make it brighter!
