is to drive. We hope you have as much fun with your Atomik™ Electric Boat as we did creating it. Not only did you purchase a top of the
line R/C Electric Boat, but you have also joined the Atomik™ Team and it’s world class product line and customer service. Every Atomik™
Electric Boat model is handmade using the latest manufacturing techniques with the highest possible standards. Your model is unique and
may have blemishes due to the nature of the manufacturing process. This is normal, and further adds to your boats originality.
While the Atomik™ Whiplash 24” P1 RTR Electric Boat is incredibly fun, it is not a
toy. It is very important that you read and follow the steps detailed in the included
instruction manuals. Failure to follow the guidelines detailed in these manuals
could result in damage to property, permanent damage to your model, or personal
injury. It is very important to use this product responsibly. Following these
maintenance and operating guidelines will ensure years of enjoyable use. When
operating your model, always keep clear of full-size boats, solid objects, animals
and people. For best results, operate your Atomik™ Whiplash 24” P1 RTR Electric
Boat in calm water, low wind conditions away from swimmers and wildlife. To
avoid an out of control model, always perform a range check and make sure that
no other models are operating on the same frequency. Inspect your model for
damaged props, loose hardware and loose or missing screws before and after
every run. If your model begins to operate erratically or if you notice a change in
its operation, stop using it immediately and do not use again until the issue is
corrected.
