OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Sling Shot is the latest technology in fast, small electric boating.  Blow by the competition!  You'll be
impressed with Sling Shot's speed and handling, even in rough water.  Run it in the pool, it turns on a
dime!  Run it at the lake, you'll be tearing it up,  jumping the wake, and blowing larger, slower boats out
of the water!  Look inside and you'll find a traditional, reliable R/C power and radio control system with
electronic speed control, servo and 380 size motor. Get ready to Sling Shot past the competition!

Includes 27Mhz FM Transmitter and 900mAH NiMH Battery
