Radio System Rules
Each time you prepare to run your
model, you must clear your frequency to
be sure no one else in the area is using
the same channel as you.
There are six possible channels,
numbered 1 through 6. Each is
represented by a color. Look at the
crystal plugged into the back of your
transmitter to determine which channel
your boat is assigned to.
Always turn your transmitter
on first
and
off last.
This
procedure will help to prevent your Villain from receiving
stray signals from another transmitter, or other source, and
running out of control.
Always have the transmitter turned on before you plug in
the battery pack in the model. Also make sure that objects
and people (fingers!) are clear of the props before
connecting the battery.
Always use new or freshly charged batteries for the radio
system. Weak batteries will limit the range of the radio signal
between the receiver and the transmitter. Loss of the radio
signal can cause you to lose control of your Villain.

Remember, always
turn the transmitter
on first
and
off last
to
avoid damage to your model.
Your electronic
speed control was
adjusted to the
radio from the factory. It is
possible for the throttle
trim control on the
transmitter to have moved
during transit or while
handling the transmitter. If
the motors run when the
boat (esc) is switched on,
then move the throttle trim
control on the transmitter
until the motors stop. If
anything more than a slight
adjustment of the throttle
trim control is required,
then you should readjust
your speed control. Refer to
the Adjustments section on
pages 16.
Caution: Always be sure that objects and people (hands!) are clear of the props before connecting the battery!
