• The 6.4V LiFePo battery does not come pre-charged.

• The 6.4V LiFePo battery can be re-charged many times before it needs to be replaced.
When the battery no longer holds a charge (is dead), it should be properly recycled.
NOTE 1: The boat will typically run for about 8 min on a fully charged battery. As soon as you notice a
drop off in speed, you should bring the model back to shore or you may lose control of the boat.
NOTE 2: Continuous running of the model will generate high heat levels, which will lead to premature
wear on the motor. It is recommended to let the model cool down for about 5-10 min before
installing a re-charged battery pack.
