When You Are  Finished

1.  Power off the receiver by pressing the power button 

for 2 seconds.

2.  Power off the transmitter.
3.  Disconnect and remove the battery from the boat.

We recommend running the boat in 0–7 MPH winds and 

calm water conditions. 
Maximum speeds are only achieved when water conditions 

are smooth and wind is minimal. A sharp turn in wind (stronger 

than 8–10 MPH) or waves can capsize the boat when it is 

moving at high speeds. A capsized boat can float away on 

windy days. Always pilot your boat in favorable wind and water 

conditions so that the boat does not capsize. 
Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a  

location to pilot your boat.

When boating in water, avoid boating near: 

•  watercraft
•  people (swimming areas, fishing areas)
•  stationary objects
•  waves, wakes
•  rapidly moving water
•  wildlife
•  floating debris
•  overhanging trees 
•  vegetation

Practice driving the boat at low throttle by switching the 

transmitter preset throttle limiter to the medium setting. 

Advance the throttle setting as you become proficient with 

driving. 
When using 4S power, do not attempt to skim sideways 

while turning or the boat will capsize.
Turning at speeds above 10 mph will cause the boat abruptly 

stop and possibly capsize. Practice turning the boat in no less 

than a 15 foot radius.
If you need to retrieve your boat from the water, use fishing 

equipment or another boat. 

CAUTION: 

Never operate the boat in extreme 

temperatures, windy conditions or turbulent water.

 

CAUTION: 

Never attempt to retrieve a downed boat 

by swimming to retrieve it.

Boating Tips

1.  Carefully place the boat in the water.
2.  If the boat does not go straight, adjust the ST Trim dial on 

the transmitter.

3.  Return the boat to shore when it begins to slow or when 

LVC activates.

4.  Power off the ESC and disconnect the battery. 
5.  Turn off the transmitter.

NOTICE:

 Always power OFF the receiver before powering 

OFF the transmitter. If the transmitter is powered OFF 

before the boat, the receiver will enter failsafe mode.

WARNING: 

Do not to increase steering throw beyond 

the factory setting or servo failure may occur.
