Troubleshooting
The remote stops working
In the unlikely event that the remote stops working completely and the signal Failsafe
function is activated, move quickly to switch the boat OFF once it reaches the shore as the
motor will likely still be running. This is because the actual home position will be a couple
of meters up the beach where it was armed and GPS lock was achieved on power-up.
The boat stalls in the ocean
In the unlikely event that the boat stalls in the ocean follow these steps.
Manual mode:
Release the throttle and wait 12 sec.
Lift the throttle to see if the boat starts. If not, attempt to re-arm the Auto Pilot.
First check that the rudder trim control is in the center and the Sail Mode switch is
set to Manual.
Hold the rudder stick to the right for 10 sec.
Lift the throttle and see if the boat moves.
RTL mode:
Move the Sail Mode switch and the trim control to Manual wait 10 sec and attempt
to re-arm the Auto Pilot as above.
If you suspect that the batteries are very low, it is better to sail the boat back in
manual mode, applying as little throttle as possible to keep the boat moving back
towards the shore.
Never lift and hold the throttle in the full power position during a stall in an attempt to
reconnect with your boat. If the trip switch in the boat has been triggered when it resets
and the receiver sees continuous full throttle during the reboot, it will take this an
instruction to enter the programming mode and you will likely lose key factory settings.
IMPORTANT: The RTL feature will only operate correctly if the boat is in good working
order and will not be effective if the propeller is lost or if the boat batteries are flat etc.
