Does anyone else on here have one of the 1:6 models? I just got one (see post above) and it didn't come with any documentation. I have a few questions before i start messing around and crashing the thing into a wall.

I'll post my questions in case anyone happens to know the answers.

How long do I need to charge the battery for, how will I know when it's done charging, and is it harmful to over-charge it?
The battery takes 4 hours to charge. There is no charge indicator, use a clock. I'm not sure about over-charging, but I wouldn't recommend it.

What is the purpose of the ABC slider switch?
To select the radio channel for the remote

What is the purpose of the twist knob above the ABC switch?
Throttle trim selector. I have yet to figure out what that means, but I assume it's like changing gears?

I'm assuming the trigger is the throttle and the tire is for steering.
Pull trigger to go forward, push for reverse.

What is the white arc slider under the car for (not the battery latch, but towards the front)?
steering alignment, in case it's not driving straight.

Anything else you think I should know?
Yes, read the box before posting stupid questions.

EDIT: Ok, I read the back of the box and answered all of my questions. My favorite sentence from the box? "To Avoid Accident Happen." Everything else passes for English, but somehow this little tidbit of important advice was overlooked. I've posted the answers to my questions in case anyone else was wondering the same thing.
