Daughter boat
•
Open the central hatch (the one with the integral
mushroom-shaped funnel) on the boat; it is only
held in place by double-sided adhesive tape. For
maintenance purposes the two entry hatches can
also be removed completely; these are also se-
cured with double-sided tape. When subsequently
running the boat, please ensure that the tape still
has adequate adhesion. If you are not sure, re-
place it using the type of double-sided tape in-
tended for sticking photos in photograph albums.
•
Solder a BEC connector to the motor wires, taking
particular care to ensure that the motor shaft spins
in the correct direction. When you connect the
battery, the propeller must rotate in such a way
that the boat would move forward. Wrap insulating
tape round the soldered joints at the battery ter-
minals; it is essential that they cannot make elec-
trical contact with each other.
•
Mount a swivel pushrod connector on the single-
ended servo output arm as shown in the photo-
graph. You will need to open up the second hole
from the outside using a 2 mm Ø drill. Stick the
servo in the integral servo recess in the model us-
ing contact glue (e.g. UHU kraft, Order No. 1096).
Slip the rudder pushrod through the swivel con-
nector, set the servo and the rudder to centre, and
secure the pushrod by tightening the grubscrew.
•
Fix the speed controller and the receiver inside
the hull using Velcro tape. Deploy the receiver ae-
rial inside the hull in a similar manner to the
cruiser.
TIP:
for better reception drill a 1 mm Ø
hole just forward of the mast base, thread the ae-
rial wire through it and stick it to the mast using
clear adhesive tape. Leave a loop of wire at the
base of the mast so that it can still be withdrawn
(see photo).
•
The battery should be installed below the rear
cockpit, and secured in that position with Velcro
tape.
