3. When not in use, always disconnect and remove battery and hydrogen canister.
4. Do not disassemble the battery , the fuel cell, the Hydrostik cartridges or cut the cables.
5. Make sure you recharge the battery and fuel cell correctly, please follow the instructions.
6. After use, battery retains heat, wait until it cools down before recharging. Please dispose of battery responsibly. Never put battery into fire.

*Although we recommend TRF 416 from TAMIYA and our aluminum support plate is designed around this model,
the H-cell 2.0 kit could be adapted to various RC vehicles and boats with some additional engineering.
**We recommend Futaba BLS 551 due to its smaller size. Page 6 of 44

STEP 2: Use black double-sided tape to attach the antenna’s signal receiver (Q)* to the chassis (N).

STEP 7: Insert the grey plug from speed controller (O) into socket “2” of the antenna’s signal receiver (Q).
Use a plastic tie (part M) to attach the cable to the chassis (N) together so wire doesn’t hang from chassis.
Make sure all the connections are correct. Pay attention to the plug direction.
