Battery Installation Cont.
Installing the AA Batteries in your Transmitter
1. Make sure the transmitter ON/OFF switch is in the “OFF”
position.
2. Remove battery cover by pressing down on the
embossed arrow and sliding the cover as indicated.
3. Insert 4 AA batterries, playing close attention to the + and
- polarity.
4. Slide the battery cover back into place.
NOTE: Remove all AA batterries from the transmitter if you
do not intend to use it for an extended period of time.
Transmitter/Receiver Binding
The binding process ties the transmitter and receiver together. Under normal circumstances, this will be
done at the factory. If, however, you nd that your transmitter and boat are not communicating (receiver’s
red LED light is on), please follow these instructions:
1. Switch “ON” the transmitter.
2. Switch “ON” the receiver by attaching the 11.1V LiPO battery pack’s connector to the matching connector
in the boat.
3. Press down the “BIND” button on the receiver. The receiver’s green LED light will be on to indicate that
binding has been successful and the receiver will now accept commands from the transmitter.
NOTE 1: During the binding process, the transmitter and receiver should be no more than 3ft. apart and no
other similar devices should be within 35ft.
NOTE 2: If the green LED light is ashing, the binding process has failed. Please repeat the steps above.
Basic Controls
1. Forward Throttle Trigger
Your Atomik Barbwire can be driven forward by pulling the
throttle trigger. Release the trigger to stop the boat.
2. Left/Right Steering Wheel
The steering wheel controls the model’s left and right
movement. Turn the wheel to the left to steer to the left. Turn
the wheel right to steer the boat right. Release the wheel to
go straight.
RACING TIP: This model is an oval racer designed for clockwise
racing and will be less responsive to steering inputs at high
speed, particularly left turns. Decrease your speed to allow
tighter turning.
