Boating Tips 

When running your boat for the first time, we 

recommend calm wind and water conditions so that you 

can learn how the boat responds to your control. 
Maximum speeds are only achieved when the water 

conditions are smooth and there is little wind. A sharp 

turn, wind or waves can turn over a boat when it is 

moving quickly. Always pilot your boat for the wind and 

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

location to pilot your boat.

Avoid boating near: 

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

If the propeller and rudder are blocked with debris or 

vegetation, remove the boat from the water and remove 

the debris before continuing operation. 
When making turns, decrease the throttle to reduce the 

probability of flipping the boat over.
Never operate your boat in less than 12 inches (30.5 cm) 

of water. 
If you need to retrieve your boat from the water, use 

fishing equipment or another boat. 

Tip: 

Use Clear Flexible Marine Tape (DYNM0102) around 

the canopy when running your boat in rough water.

NOTICE: 

When running at full speed in choppy water, 

the propeller may exit and re-enter the water repeatedly 

and very quickly, subjecting the propeller and flex shaft to 

some stress. Frequent stress may damage the propeller 

and flex shaft.

CAUTION: 

Never operate your boat in extreme 

temperatures or turbulent water.

 

CAUTION: 

Never attempt to retrieve a downed 

boat by swimming.

When You Are  Finished

1. 

Power off the receiver. 

 

2. 

Power off the transmitter. 

 

3. 

Disconnect and remove the 

battery from the boat.

Tip:

 Always remove the canopy before storage or moisture may allow mold and mildew to grow in the boat.
