Install propeller, Rudder and fins

1. Align the propeller with the drive dog on the flex shaft

and install the propeller using the included locknut.
Tip: Remove the left and right trim tabs from the boat to

install the vertical fins more easily.
2. Install the left and right turn fins using two M3x8 cap

screws for each turn fin (total of four screws). Adjust the

vertical fins for the desired stability.
3. Install the left and right trim tabs using two M3x10 cap

screws for each trim tab (total of four screws).
4. Attach the rudder to the rudder pivot plate using one

M3x15 cap screw and one 3mm locknut (top hole).
5. Install one M3x10 Phillips head screw in the rudder

pivot plate (bottom hole). The Phillips head screw also

acts as a shear pin for the break-away rudder.
6. Connect the cooling line to the top of the rudder.

7. When the boat is moving forward, ensure water flows

out of the coolant outlet on the side of the boat. If water

does not flow out of this outlet, remove any blockage

from the rudder inlet and coolant system or the motor and

ESC (electronic speed control) may overheat.
Ensure the trim tab panels are flush with the bottom of

the boat. You may desire to bend the trim tabs for wind

and water conditions. To adjust the angle of the trim tabs,

use a large pair of pliers to bend the tabs. This must be

done carefully so that you do not damage the hull.

CAuTION: Always use caution when installing the

fins or handling your boat, the turn fins are sharp. Failure

to do so could cause personal injury

Antenna Tube Installation

1. Carefully feed the end of the longer receiver

antenna through the grommet inside the hull.
2. Pull the antenna wire out of the grommet

towards the outside of the boat, then slide the

antenna through the antenna tube.
3. Insert the tube into the grommet, then

fit the cap onto the tube.
4. Apply clear tape to the antenna, grommet

and hull in the boat to keep the antenna

from moving.

Arrange the shorter antenna in the hull at a right or near

90 degree angle to the antenna in the tube. Attach the

antenna inside the hull, away from all electrical wiring and

components using clear tape.

The antennas must be installed correctly above the boat's

water line to get the best reception of your transmitter's

signal.
