Checking the Steering Operation
With your PT-109 and transmitter on,
move the steering stick to the right to
make the rudders move to the right to
incur a right turn. Conversely, when left
input is given, the rudders will move to
the left.
It may be necessary to adjust the
Steering Trim so the rudders are
centered prior to operation. Use the
Steering Trim to center the rudders
prior to operation. You may also need
to fine-tune the steering trim to make
sure the boat runs straight during
operation. This can only be accomplished
when operating the boat in the water
and is detailed in a following section.
After you have completed checking your
radio system, turn the PT-109 receiver off
FIRST by sliding the switch to the “OFF”
position. After the model has been turned
off, turn off the transmitter.
If you find the steering or throttle
operates backwards as described,
you may need to actuate the servo
reversing switch.
Note: If you are transporting your
PT-109, make sure you disconnect
the batteries from the speed
controller and then turn your radio
off until you are ready to run the
boat. Once ready, simply plug the
batteries into the speed controller,
turn the radio on and make sure
that the boat is in neutral.
Range Testing
Collapse the transmitter antenna and
move the rudder controls. Walk away
from the boat and confirm that you have
control at least 20 yards away.
