™
Sunrise
™
24 Ready-To-Run
sailboat. This sailboat has been designed to provide many hours
of scale sailing pleasure, without the long hours of assembling
that is usually associated with a model R/C sailboat. The Sunrise 24
can be completed in less than an hour of assembly time.
No Building!
The Sunrise 24 comes almost completely assembled. Its durable
molded fiberglass hull has been painted for your convenience.
You will only need to finish rigging the sails and attach the rudder.
The detailed instructions, photos, and glossary at the back of
the manual will allow you to easily complete the assembly. A
box is provided for each step of the manual so that you can check
off that particular section when complete.
Radio
RTR Sunrise (PRB2170)
Your RTR Sunrise comes with the JR Beat Gear 2-channel AM
radio system installed. Please refer to the manual of the Beat
Gear radio system before attempting to sail your Sunrise. This
manual will answer any questions that you may have regarding
the radio system.
ARR Sunrise (PRB2171)
Your ARR Sunrise arrives ready for radio installation and completely
assembled. A 2-channel radio system is needed to complete it.
Please follow your radio system instructions for the set up. The sail
servo arm is included with the Sunrise, and the rigging line has
already been attached to the sail servo arm to make installation
easier. Please refer to the box art to see a photo that shows how
the radio box should appear when installation is complete.
