Checking the Radio System
CAuTION: Always keep all body parts, hair
and dangling or loose items away from a spinning
propeller, as these could become entangled.
NOTICE: Always power on the transmitter before
powering on the ESC. Always power off the ESC
before powering off the transmitter. Never transport
the boat with the battery connected to the ESC.
1. Turn the transmitter throttle and steering trim knobs
to the 10 o’clock position.
2. Power on the transmitter.
3. Connect a fully charged battery to the ESC. Set the
battery chemistry switch to the appropriate setting:
ON=Li-Po/OFF=Ni-MH.
4. Power on the ESC switch. The boat will
beep 5 times.
5. Ensure the rudder moves in the proper direction
when the steering wheel is moved left or right.
6. Pull the throttle to full, then return the throttle to
neutral, ensuring the propeller turns counterclockwise.
The auto-sensing voltage cutoff will also engage when
the ESC detects low battery charge. Release the throttle
and recharge the battery.

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.
Set the battery chemistry switch to the appropriate
setting: ON=Li-Po/OFF=Ni-MH.
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:
• Different failsafe positions are desired e.g., when
throttle or steering reversing has been changed.
• Binding the receiver to a different transmitter.
