TIME TO HIT THE WATER !
Your Offshore Flyer is now ready to run! Before you take it out to the water,
please read and abide by the following safety guidelines:
Your transmitter has a sticker on the back identifying the radio frequency “channel”
that is being transmitted. No two boats in the same vicinity can be operating on the
same frequency channel at the same time, because both boats will have a total
loss of control. Before you operate your boat anywhere there are other R/C boats
or surface vehicles being used, you must verify that the channel you are using
is clear.
Do not ever operate the boat when there are people in the water nearby.
Do not ever use this model to chase or attack wildlife, fish, birds, or animals!
Make sure you have fresh batteries installed in the transmitter, and fully charged
battery (ies) for the boat.
If your boat becomes stuck, release the throttle stick, move the detent lever down
to “low” position to stop the motor, and retrieve the model by hand.
Always keep your hands and face away from the propeller when carrying the
model.
It is important to periodically check all screws, fasteners, set screws, etc for secu-
rity. Operating the model with loose fasteners can cause severe damage to the
boat and loss of control.
Use only soft paper towels or a soft cloth and mild soapy water to clean the model.
Abrasives and harsh chemicals will damage the model.
Always check the boat battery temperature when charging. Excessive heat will
damage the battery and cause a fire hazard. If the battery is too hot to touch, take it
off the charger and let it cool.
Always allow the battery to cool fully before re-charging.
Always turn the transmitter ON first before plugging in the motor battery, and turn
the transmitter OFF last.
Do not use a boat battery with more than 6 cells (7.2 Volts) or it will damage the re-
ceiver and speed control unit.
