Testing Your Boat in the Water
1. Carefully place the boat in the water.
2. Operate the boat at slow speeds near the shoreline.
Avoid objects in the water at all times. When the
boat is moving forward, ensure water flows out of
the coolant outlet. Remove any blockage from the
rudder inlet and coolant system or the motor and ESC
(electronic speed control) may overheat.
3. Once you are comfortable operating the boat at
slow speeds, it is safe to operate the boat farther
from the shore.
Tip: If you are using too much steering trim on your
transmitter to make the boat drive straight, return the
trim to neutral and mechanically center the rudder.
To do this, loosen the ball link from the rudder horn,
then turn the ball link on the linkage threads until the
rudder is properly centered.
4. Bring the boat back to shore when you notice
the boat starting to lose speed.
5. Power off the ESC and disconnect the battery pack.
6. Allow the motor, ESC and battery packs to cool before
charging the batteries or operating the boat again.
NOTICE: Do not turn off the transmitter first
or the receiver may pick up stray signals and
run out of control.

Binding
Failsafe
In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use,
the receiver will drive the servos to their preprogrammed
failsafe positions (normally no throttle and straight
steering). If the receiver is powered on before powering
on the transmitter, the receiver will enter failsafe mode,
driving the servos to their preset failsafe positions. When
the transmitter is powered on, normal control is resumed.
Failsafe servo positions are set during binding.
Binding is the process of programming the receiver of
the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique
Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. The
included transmitter and receiver are bound at the factory.
If you need to rebind, follow the instructions below.
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.
