LiteHawk CHASE Instruction Manual     4  

  

Steering: 

The steer-

ing wheel controls 

the boat’s direction. 

Turn the wheel left 

to steer to the left. 

Turn the wheel to 

the right and the 

boat will steer to the 

right. The steering 

is 100% proportion-

al and will react to 

even slight inputs. 

The radio is de-

signed to self-cen-

tre. Simply release 

the wheel from a 

steering input and it 

will go straight. 

LiteHawk CHASE - Controller Functions

Steering trim:

 Steering trim is used when your 

boat is turning or pulling to the left or 

right. If the boat is turning slightly to the right, 

than press the left trim button till the boat is track-

ing straight. If the boat is turning slightly to the 

left, press the right trim button until 

the boat is tracking straight. NOTE: If your rudder 

is noticeably out of 

centre the Steering 

trim may not solve your 

issue and a mechani-

cal adjustment to the 

steering links may be 

needed.

On/O

  Power switch:

 red 

light should come and remain 

solid when turned on. Make 

sure to turn your hand held 

unit on before plugging in the 

boat. 

Throttle: 

Forward drive 

is initiated by pulling 

the throttle trigger 

towards the grip or 

handle like a trigger. 

The throttle is 100% 

proportional and will re-

act to even slight input. 

Release the trigger to 

slow and stop the boat.

LiteHawk CHASE - Battery & Charger

   Your LiteHawk CHASE comes with an 260 mAh rechargeable battery and porta-

ble DC charging system.

Battery:

   The 6 Volt rechargeable NimH battery provides the power to propel your boat 

across the water at high speeds. You should expect 6-10min run time. Extra 

batteries are available at www.litehawk.ca. However you do need to make sure to 

properly maintain your NimH Battery. 

LiteHawk CHASE - 2.4 Ghz

   Your LiteHawk CHASE comes with a 2.4 Ghz radio system, which allows you 

to play without the fear of ever losing control! Race or play with countless other 

drivers. The range of your boat is approximately 250ft which, due to its small 

size, is in excess of normal vision.  The farther the boat goes away from you the 

smaller it will become and the harder it will be to determine the boat’s direction 

We suggest you drive at a distance between 5ft-20ft, this keeps your boat within 

a safe operational distance.
