Getting Started
!
!
1. Power on the transmitter. (Before open the
transmitter, pls make sure the Throttle Stick is on
the bottom position.)
!
2. Connect the battery. (Use the VELCRO insert the
boat to stick the Battery, and make sure it will not
move by itself.)
!
3. Test the transmitter’s control of the boat with the
boat on the display stand.
(Make sure the
propeller running counterclockwise while you
face the stern)
!
4. After launching the boat in the water, start driving
slowly. If the boat does not go straight, adjust the
trimer on the transmitter to run it straight.

Checking the Radio System
!
!
1. Turn the transmitter throttle and rudder trim to the middle position.
!
2. Power on the transmitter.
!
3. Connect a fully charged battery to the ESC.
!
4. Ensure the rudder moves in the proper direction when the controller is moved left or right.
!
5. Pull the throttle to full, then return the throttle to neutral, ensuring the propeller turns
counterclockwise. The ESC auto-sensing voltage cutoff will engage when the ESC detects a
low battery charge. Release the throttle and recharge the battery when necessary.

Testing Your Boat in the Water
!
!
1. Carefully place the boat in the water.
!
2. Operate the boat at slow speeds near the shoreline. Avoid objects in the water at all times.
!
3. Once you are comfortable operating the boat at slow speeds, it is safe to operate the boat
farther from the shore.
!
!
Tip:
If you are using too much steering trim on your transmitter to make the boat drive straight,
return the trim to neutral and mechanically center the rudder. To do this, loosen the ball link
