5. Fit the floats into place on the fuselage instead of the landing gear as shown.

6. Connect the float servos to the rudder channel as shown. 

7.Fit the battery cover well as shown, you can change the battery easily 
by  open  the  cover,  and  you  can  install  numeral  product  like  camera, 
lighting system ect into it.

Parts:

1.Fuselage

2.Main wings

4. Fit the aluminum float struts as shown.  

1).Fit  a  small  plastic  bag  or  balloon  over  the  receiver  to  waterproof  it, 
then seal the neck of the bag over the servo wires using a rubber band.
2).Salt water is not recommended, it will destroy the electronics quickly. 
If  you  do  end  up  getting  salt  water  on  any  of  your  electronics, 
immediately rinse the electronics in fresh water.As soon as possible.
3).If  you  end  up  soaking  any  of  your  electronic  components  in  fresh 
water, you can simply let them sit in the sun to dry off, usually, they will 
start working again when they are dry.

Some tips for flying off water as follow:

4).If  the  water  is  too  smooth,  the  suction  of  the  surface  may  keep  the 
plane  from  taking  off.In  this  case,  circle  around  on  the  water  to  create 
some waves, then run across the waves to take off.
5).  Check  that  there  is  no  water  inside  the  fuselage  before  each  and 
every  flight.  Water  inside  the  fuselage  can  wash  backwards  during 
takeoff, change the center of gravity, and cause a crash.
6). After a water flying session, it is VERY important to dry the airplane 
and  motor  thoroughly  before  putting  it  away.7).  Only  fly  upwind  of 
yourself. If you run out of batteries, and the plane is downwind of you, 
you  have  no  way  of  getting  it  back  to  shore.  If  you  fly  upwind  of 
yourself, the wind will bring the plane back to shore.
