The engine will automatically be started the first time you move the throttle forward (throttle stick must be moved to more than half throttle). **CAUTION:** be careful when using this setting with large scale or heavy models! It will be very easy for you to accidentally bump the throttle stick and have your model go running off the bench.

 Track recoil will cause the vehicle to drive backwards rapidly but briefly when then cannon is fired. This feature is standard on Heng Long and Taigen tanks, but most find it undesirable for scale reasons. Here you can enable or disable it as you please. Note: the Open Panzer implementation of track recoil is only active when the vehicle is stopped - even if enabled, it will not function if the cannon is fired while the vehicle is moving. Also keep in mind, that although several adjustments are provided the effect will be influenced significantly by your specific gearbox and motor combination. In general, the very high gear ratios used in model tanks do not permit for a very realistic reaction. Track recoil will cause the vehicle to drive backwards rapidly but briefly when then cannon is fired.
