Filling the Fuel Tank
We recommend that you use Blue Thunder
20% fuel. For maximum performance, we
recommend Blue Thunder Race Formula. Blue
Thunder fuels are specifically formulated for
excellent power and engine protection.
Locate the fuel tank inside the cockpit area
and unscrew the lid. Use either the DYN2009
Fast Tap quart bottle spout that has been
attached to the quart of fuel or the DYN2003
Fuel Bottle to fill the fuel tank with your
selection of Blue Thunder fuel. After you have
filled the fuel tank and re-installed the lid,
wipe away any excess fuel that may have
been spilled inside the hull or elsewhere on
the boat. Immediately seal the fuel container
by putting the lid back on after refueling in
order to protect the fuel from moisture.
Range Checking the Pro Boat Radio System
Before the first run of the Formula FASTech,
range check the radio for proper operation
and ensure proper control movement of the
rudder and throttle. Also confirm that the
antenna on the boat is extended properly and
that all batteries are in working condition.
Note: It is a good idea to range check prior
to operating your boat after any repair,
installation of new batteries, or at the
beginning of each boating session.
With the radio system turned on (transmitter,
then the receiver) and the transmitter
antenna down (engine off), walk away from
the boat and confirm that you have control
from at least 20 yards.
If everything appears to be operating
correctly, raise the antenna and start the
engine (refer to Section 5 of this manual and
to the separate Nitro engine manual). Place
the boat in the water and run it (at about 1⁄3
throttle) close to the shoreline. If everything
is operating properly, you can begin to run
the boat faster and further away from the
shoreline.
