Make sure the radio is "ON" and the
batteries are plugged into the speed
controller. Test the radio system for
proper operation and then carefully
place the boat in the water. Pilot the
boat at slow speeds, staying close to the
shoreline to ensure you have good control
and that the boat is functioning correctly.
Be certain to avoid all objects in the
water at all times.
Once you feel comfortable with the
control of your boat, it is safe to go
further away from the shoreline and at
faster speeds. When you notice the boat
beginning to lose speed, bring the boat
back to shore. It will be necessary to
allow the electronic components to cool
down and to replace or recharge the
battery before heading out again.
The ESC in your Blackjack 26 Brushless
EP is pre-programmed from the factory.
The programming is set for Ni-MH
batteries as shipped with your Blackjack
26.
A programming module (PRB3311) is
available to change the programming
of your speed control. Settings include
Ni-MH or LiPo batteries, cut-off voltage
settings, cutoff type, brake on or off,
motor timing and throttle curve.
Caution: It is imperative that
you do not attempt to use LiPo
batteries in the Blackjack 26
Brushless unless it has been
properly programmed or serious
damage to the batteries and
electronics may occur.
Note: Do not turn off the
transmitter first or the receiver
may pick up stray signals and run
out of control.
Before and at the end of each run, make
sure all screws are tight and the propeller
is free from any entanglement.
