Section 5: Checking the Radio System

The rudder control arm should move toward
the front of the boat when right input is
given. Conversely, when left input is given,
the control arm should move toward the back
of the boat.
Right Turn
Right Turn
The ESC will beep until you give full throttle
input. The auto sensing circuitry will
select full throttle position when you hold
full throttle during initial setup. Release
the throttle trigger. With the propeller
free from any objects, give some throttle
input to ensure that the motor is working.
If everything appears to be functioning
correctly, you are ready to run your boat.
Be sure to turn off the receiver switch, then
the transmitter to keep stray signals from
sending the boat out of control.
Note: The ESC has an over-rev limiter that
will not allow you to hold full throttle when
the propeller is not loaded (in the water). To
reset, return the throttle trigger to neutral.
The auto sensing voltage cutoff will also
cut off power to the motor when the ESC
senses that the batteries are nearing
full discharge.
Note: If you are transporting your boat,
make sure you disconnect the battery
from the speed controller and then turn
your radio off until you are ready to run
the boat. Once ready, simply turn the radio
on and plug the battery into the speed
controller, again making sure that the boat
is in neutral.
