• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit diff erent from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Checking the Radio System
and Getting Started
1. Power on the transmi er by turning on the
switch on the le top end.
2. Connect a fully charged ba ery by plugging it
into the ESC inside the hull.
3. Before placing the boat in the water, test the
opera on of the motor using the trigger on the
transmi er. Also check the switch on the top
of the transmi er to make sure it is set to the
5:5 posi on, allowing full forward and reverse
opera on of the motor.
4. Before opera ng your model, make sure the
rudder moves to center posi on once the
ba ery is plugged into the ESC. If not, you will
need to adjust the steering trim located on the
transmi er to the above le of the wheel. See
the transmi er instruc ons for direc ons.
5. Once the rudder is centered, make sure it
moves in the corresponding direc on when you
steering wheel is moved to the right or the le .
6. Once you carefully place the boat in the water,
begin driving slowly as you become familiar
with the opera on. Stay near the shoreline at
fi rst if you are driving your boat in a pond or
lake. Note that steering the boat right or le
is completed by turning the steering wheel on
the transmi er in the same direc on you want
the boat to turn. Begin with small movements
of the wheel for wider turns and progress to
sharper turns as your skills increase.
7. Make sure you avoid objects in the water at all
mes while opera ng the boat.
8. To avoid LVC (Low Voltage Cutoff ) drive the boat
back to shore or the edge of the pool when it
begins to lose speed.
9. Power off the disconnec ng the ba ery pack
and then turn off the transmi er.
10. Allow the motor, ESC, and ba ery packs to cool
before charging or opera ng the boat again.
TIP: If it requires a lot of steering trim on the
transmi er to have the boat drive straight, return the
steering trim to neutral and mechanically center the
rudder. To do this, loosen the setscrew at the rudder
and center the rudder. Re- ghten the setscrew to
secure the rudder pushrod.
NOTICE: Always power on the transmi er before
plugging in the ESC. Make sure the transmi er is
NOT turned off fi rst or the receiver may pick up stray
signals from other devices and run out of control.
Never transport the boat with the ba ery connected
to the ESC.
CAUTION: Always keep all body parts, hair, and loose
items away from a spinning propeller as items can
become easily entangled.
