Binding
The included transmitter and receiver are bound at the
factory. If you need to rebind, follow the instructions
below.
Binding is the process of programming the receiver to
recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a
single specific transmitter.
1.
Power off the transmitter and ESC.
2.
Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC.
3.
Power on the ESC. The RED LED on the ESC flashes.
4.
Press the bind button (
A
) on the receiver.
The RED LED on the ESC flashes rapidly.
5.
Power on the transmitter.
6.
The RED LED on the ESC turns solid when
the radio system is bound.
You must rebind when binding the receiver to a different
transmitter.
NOTICE:
Do not attempt to bind the transmitter and
receiver if there are other compatible transmitters in
bind mode within 400 feet. Doing so may result in
unexpected binding.

Failsafe
In the unlikely event that the radio connection is lost
during use, the receiver will drive the servos to their pre-
programmed failsafe positions (normally no throttle and
straight steering).
If the receiver is powered on before powering on the
transmitter, the receiver will enter this failsafe mode.
When the transmitter is powered on, normal control is
resumed.
Water Cooling System
If water does not stream out of the water outlets while
the boat is moving forward, immediately stop the boat
and clean the obstruction from the water cooling system.
1.
Disassemble and clean the water cooling system to
remove blockage and prevent overheating.
2.
Replace any damaged parts.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)
Discharging a Li-Po battery below 3V per cell may
damage your battery.The included ESC protects the boat
battery from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff
(LVC). Before the battery charge decreases too much,
LVC removes power supplied to the motor. Power to
the motor pulses, showing that some battery power is
reserved for boat control and safe landing.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the boat
after use to prevent trickle discharge. Charge your Li-Po
battery to about half capacity before storage. During
storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall below
3V per cell. LVC does not prevent the battery from over-
discharge during storage.
NOTICE:
Repeated operation to LVC will damage the
battery.
Tip:
Monitor your boat battery's voltage before and
after boating by using a Li-Po Cell Voltage Checker
(DYN4071, sold separately).
