7. Check the operation of the propeller in

relationship to the throttle trigger. When

the trigger is pulled in, the propeller must

rotate counterclockwise as shown. If not,

follow the instructions from the radio to

set the servo reversing for the throttle.

The recommended amount of steering

response for initial setup is 30mm left

and right from center as measured from

the rear of the skeg (lowest part of the

outboard).

There are several adjustments necessary

to getting the best handling characteristics

from the Stiletto. Begin your first run with

the batteries centered in the radio box, the

motor height centered and the trim angle set

slightly upwards.

Trim

Up Trim (lifting the rear of the outboard) will

raise the bow of the boat out of the water

and have the least resistance in the water but

excessive adjustments can cause cavitation

and porpoising.

Down Trim (lowering the rear of the

outboard) will make the boat more stable in

rougher water and eliminate porpoising but

may cause the boat to spin out while turning.
