Notice
Your IKONNIK product is calibrated, paired and tested at the factory prior
to nal packaging. Some issues may arise during shipping and handling
that can be easily resolved at home. For other adjustments it should be
known that hobby grade radio controlled products such as those offered by
IKONNIK differ from toy grade in that they are intended to be user-serviceable
products where the user can program and maintain their own product. We
try our best to ensure the information you need to introduce you to this form
of product ownership is available to you though this manual. Please see the
troubleshooting section at the back of this manual for assistance in resolving
issues, either as they are experienced out of the box or as found after regular
use.
Note: Assuming your product functions properly as intended out of the box, the
best thing you can do is pay close attention to how it feels, sounds and functions.
This will help you identify problems later since you will have a reference of how the
product is supposed to perform.
If you require further information or assistance resolving a possible issue,
please consult the warranty card included with your product.
Precautions
WARNING: ALWAYS KEEP LOOSE CLOTHING, HAIR, TOOLS OR OTHER MOVABLE
OBJECTS AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS OF YOUR VEHICLE DURING SETUP AND
CONFIGURATION. SPINNING TIRES CAN EXPAND AND MAKE CONTACT WITH SMALL
TOOLS, OR HARDWARE AND SEND THEM FLYING AT HIGH SPEEDS RISKING
INJURY TO YOU OR OTHERS AROUND YOU.
• Your model can cause serious damage or injury so please use caution
and courtesy when operating your model.
• As a safety precaution, perform all transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx)
adjustments with all parts of the vehicle off the ground. This ensures the
complete control over the vehicle at all times during adjustments.
• Do not operate your model near trafc, bystanders, parking areas, or any
other area that could result in injury to people or damage to property.
• If at any time during the operation of your model you observe any erratic
or abnormal behavior of your model, immediately stop operation and
bring the mode to a safe stop in a safe location to diagnose the problem.
• Always power on your transmitter before turning your vehicle on.
• If you have little or no experience operating R/C models, we strongly
recommend you seek the assistance of your local hobby dealer.
• Do not expose the transmitter to water or excessive moisture.
• Do not operate radio controlled products in a lightning or thunder storm.
• Ensure your batteries (both Tx and vehicle) are charged before each use.
• Check all servos and electrical connections prior to each use.

R/C models are an extremely fun hobby, but safety should never be ignored
or taken lightly. Always take caution when operating your model as damage
to property and injury can result from careless operation. Please consult
your local hobby dealer with any questions or troubleshooting issues. And
of course don’t forget to have fun, you deserve it after reading through all of
these safety tips!
Introduction
As the most advanced 4-channel 2.4GHz radio in the IKONNIK surface
range the ET4Ds offers features that are common only in high-end
computer transmitters, in particular, an impressive 15-model memory, a
blue backlit LCD and intuitive roller button interface. User-friendly, stylish
and comfortable in the hand, the transmitter boasts robust functions
such as end-point adjustment, dual rates, digital trims, servo reverse,
exponential, ABS braking, rock crawler steering mix / modes, steering
and throttle fail-safe and easy pairing. Delve a bit deeper and you’ll
also nd three innovative features that are exclusive to IKONNIK:
beginner mode (which restricts the throttle by 50%), feature
lock (designed to protect your nely tuned settings from
meddling hands), and factory reset. It’s an impressive
array and with a fully adjustable drop-down wheel
position that suits left or right-hand operation, plus a
useful front-facing LED torch, the ET4Ds will quickly
become your favorite everyday grab ‘n’ go radio.
Ready to expand your collection? The IKONNIK
ET4Ds is equipped with our proprietary 2.4GHz
Xenon protocol. This means that any vehicle
containing the IKONNIK Xenon logo will easily
pair with one of the 15 model memories
incorporated within your transmitter. Why
take multiple transmitters with you when
one will do?

Battery Installation
4 x AA size alkaline batteries are the standard conguration and
recommended for ease of use when getting started. Upgrading to a
rechargeable battery pack can be carried out at any time.
1. Remove the battery cover from the transmitter.
2. Insert four new AA batteries according to the polarity markings on the
battery holder.
3. Reinstall the battery cover.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHARGE NON-RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES, YOU
MAY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
Receiver Installation and Connection
Installation
To achieve full operating range with your radio system it is critical that the
receiver antenna be undamaged and installed properly. It should be installed
with as much of the antenna as possible in a vertical position. The end of the
antenna should be contained inside an antenna tube. When installing:
• Ensure there are no kinks in the antenna or antenna tube.
• Never fold the end of the antenna over the tube, this will reduce the
operating range of the system and damage the antenna.
• Ensure the receiver is mounted securely or padded against hard impacts.
Connection
• Channel 1: Controlled by the wheel, connect to a servo for steering.
• Channel 2: Controlled by the trigger, connect to the ESC or a servo for
throttle/brake.
• Channel 3: Controlled by the adjustment knob
(0-100%) for optional use. This port can also be used to connect a
transponder device used in racing.
Electric Powered Model
10
• AUX (Channel 4): Controlled by button (ON/OFF) for optional use. This
port is most commonly used for LED light kits. Use this port to connect
an external battery for use with gas powered vehicles.
CAUTION: NEVER CONNECT A BATTERY WITH VOLTAGE HIGHER THAN 6.0V TO THE
RECEIVER, DOING SO COULD DAMAGE THE ELECTRONICS.
Pairing the Transmitter and Receiver
The process of allowing communication to occur between a 2.4GHz
transmitter and receiver is called ‘pairing’ (sometimes referred to as
‘matching’ or ‘binding’). The radio system comes pre-congured and paired
from the factory. In the event that your system loses pairing, or one of the
components has been replaced, you will need to pair the transmitter and
receiver. Follow the steps below for pairing your radio system. For best results
always ensure that both transmitter and receiver batteries are fully charged
or new when performing this process.
WARNING: AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION, PERFORM THE PAIRING PROCESS WITH ALL
PARTS OF YOUR VEHICLE OFF THE GROUND AND THE WHEELS FREE TO SPIN.
1. With the transmitter in close proximity but not closer than 300mm
(12inches) to the receiver, turn ON the receiver (the red LED will ash
slowly) and press the PAIR button (the red LED will ash quickly indicating
that the receiver is not paired to a transmitter that is on).
2. Ensure you are using the correct or desired model for your vehicle, re-
check then continue if necessary.
3. Press the REV button (7) on the transmitter and turn the power ON.
Release the REV button to put the transmitter into pairing mode.
4. Once the transmitter and receiver are paired, the receiver’s LED will turn
solid red. If the receiver’s LED does not turn solid red, switch both the
transmitter and receiver OFF and repeat steps 1 – 3.
5. Once pairing is complete, ensure normal operation of throttle and
steering before placing the vehicle back on the ground.
6. If you experience anything other than normal operation, repeat the
process or consult the Troubleshooting Guide in the full online manual.
Basic Operation
The ET4Ds allows you to adjust a variety of settings that can improve
the performance and handling of your vehicle. The most basic of these
adjustments can be made in two ways, using either the external switches and
buttons – 7 8 9 11 12 14 – or the LCD / Roller Button interface – 15
16 17 Using the external switches and buttons adjustments can be made
as described on the next page.
