Boating Tips
Avoid boating near other watercraft, stationary objects,
waves, wakes and other rapidly moving water, wildlife,
floating debris or overhanging trees. You should also be
careful to avoid boating in areas where there are many
people, such as swimming areas, park waterways or
fishing areas. Consult local laws and ordinances before
choosing a location to pilot your boat.
Maximum speeds are only achieved when the water
conditions are smooth and there is little wind. A sharp
turn, wind or waves can turn over a boat when it is
moving quickly. Always pilot your boat for the wind and
water conditions so that the boat does not turn over.
When running your boat for the first time, we
recommend calm wind and water conditions so that
you can learn how the boat responds to your control.
When making turns, decrease the throttle position
in order to decrease speed and probability of flipping
the boat over.
NOTICE: When running at full speed in choppy
waters, the prop may exit and re-enter the water
repeatedly and very quickly, subjecting the propeller
to some stress. Frequent stress may damage
the propeller.
CAUTION: Never retrieve your boat from
the water in extreme temperatures, turbulence
or without supervision.
When You are Finished
1. Power off the ESC.
2. Disconnect the battery.
3. Power off the transmitter.
4. Remove the battery from
the boat.
Tip: Always store the boat open
(without the hatch and inner liner
sealed) or moisture may cause
mold and mildew to grow in
the boat.

Motor Care
Seat the motor brushes by driving
smoothly on calm waters during use
of the first battery charge.
• Prolong motor life by preventing
overheating conditions. Undue
motor wear results from frequent
turns, stops and starts, pushing
objects, boating in rough water
or vegetation and boating
continuously at high speed.
• Over-temperature protection is
installed on the ESC to prevent
circuit damage, but cannot
protect the motor from pushing
against heavy resistance.
