Default RC-F G-Force Gauge delay?

Hi All, first post here!

New RC F for 2 weeks. I've looked in the manual and can't seem to find this answer unless I missed it. When I start the car, it takes approximately 5-8 minutes before the gauge will start to register the brake, accelerator, and steering wheel inputs. The G force "ball" does start to move immediately however.

Any thoughts on this? Is this normal? I would think that a delay in the "ball" would make sense if the gyros need to calibrate, but there shouldn't be anything like that for the brake and accelerator input!

Welcome to the forum bud. The G-force display begins to function when the car is warmed up and you'll see the tach move up to its normal 7,300 rpm redline.
