The Seahorse REVO4 KontikiDrone
The Seahorse REVO4 KontikiDrone is a simple drone designed to pull hooks and baits out to sea.
Drones only fly because they have counter-rotating propellers, the front left and rear right
propellers rotate clockwise and the front right and rear left rotate counter-clockwise. Another way
to view it is the propellers rotate into the ends of the drone.
The propellers are fitted with easy screw on/screw off attachments and the motors have the
matching part.
Release System
The release line is permanently attached to the left bottom side of the drone and the release is on
the right-hand side of the drone.
There is a loop at the end of the release line that loops over the forward arm of the release horn.
Ensure the line stays forward of the release horn so it doesn’t tangle on release.
Attaching the Propellers
Match the colours of the attachment on the propellers to the matching colour on the motors.
Match silver to silver and gold to gold.
The propellers screw on in the opposite direction to the rotation of the motor. The front left will
screw on counter-clockwise and the front right screws on clockwise. The propellers will self tighten
as the motors are running. The screw thread runs the same direction of the pitch on the prop.
Follw the pitch of the propeller - Wind the prop backwards and down to fit, and up and forward to
remove.
To remove the propellers, hold the motor and push the propeller in the direction of normal
rotation. Front left is clockwise to remove.
Connecting the Battery
The battery slides into the battery compartment. Tuck the balance lead securely under the battery.
Place the foam retainer in place and plug the battery lead into the connector on the Drone. Ensure
the connector is secure and firm fitting. If the connector is getting loose – contact Seahorse to
replace the connectors.
