15. Maintenance and cleaning
Check the proper functioning of the remote control as well as the smooth running of the motors on your model at
regular intervals. If necessary, apply a small drop of mineral oil to the front motor bearings.
The motors should turn easily by hand and the propeller should not be damaged or torn. Replace the propeller with
the included spare propeller or order an original spare propeller.
Clean the exterior of the model and the remote control only with a soft, dry cloth or brush. Never use aggressive clean-
ing chemicals or detergents, as these may damage the surface of the boat.
Important!
If you have to replace damaged or worn parts, only use original replacement parts. The spare parts list can
be found on our website in the download area for the respective product.
If moulded foam parts have to be glued to the model aircraft, only use adhesives that are suitable for

Replacing the propellers
The propellers (1) are only attached to the motor shafts
(2). Use a small flat screwdriver or tweezers to pull off the
defective propeller.
Important!
When mounting the new propeller, always pay
attention to the direction of rotation of the mo-
tor.
When the model is viewed from the front, the
two right propellers have the code letter “A” and
rotate clockwise.
The two left propellers have the code letter “B”
and turn counter-clockwise.
The matching propellers also bear the code letters “A”
or “B”.
The propellers must be mounted on the shaft such that the
side with the inscription (3) is facing forward in the direc-
tion of flight.
Push the propellers straightly and gently onto the motor
shaft so that they are not bent during propeller assembly.
