Instructions for Use

If you should happen to strike anything in the water the

rudder is designed to “kick back”. To return your rudder to

the running position simply rotate the rudder blade forward

until it snaps in place.

Tuning Your Gunslinger

You can adjust your Gunslinger for better performance by

adjusting the trim plates and upgrading the prop.

Bending the trim plates down will reduce bouncing (porpoising)

but add amp draw and slow the boat down slightly, possibly

shortening your run time. Bending the trim plates up will loosen

the boat up, can cause it to porpoise and possibly even blow

over (ﬂ ip over backwards)! Adjusting the trim plates to provide

the best balance of speed and stability is challenging and fun.

Your boat will also beneﬁ t from the addition of a metal prop.

(AQUB9700 AquaCraft Metal Prop 36x55 2-Blade). The

reduced ﬂ ex and sharper edges will help the performance

greatly. Learning to work on, i.e. sharpen

and balance your prop is fun and can also

be rewarding. Always be extra

careful around metal propellers.

Once sharpened they can cut

with little effort.

IMPORTANT:

If your boat takes on a large amount of water and stalls in

the middle of the lake, don’t worry, your P-27 Gunslinger has

foam ﬂ oatation so it will not sink. You will however have to

retrieve the boat and remove the canopy to remove the any

water that might have entered. If the inside of the boat is

ﬂ ooded, remove the transom plug from the back of the boat

and allow the water to drain. Dry the boat the best you can

before operating it again. Remember to re-install the transom

plug before running your boat again.

Maintenance

It is important to remove and re-lubricate the drive shaft and

other motor bearings after a day of running. Make sure the

battery pack is unplugged. To lubricate the shaft you will need a

1.5mm hex wrench, GrimRacer Cable Grease and a paper towel.

1. Using a 1.5mm hex wrench, loosen the set screw holding

the drive shaft to the motor coupler.

2. Slip the drive shaft out the back of the boat. Wipe off any

grease and water that might be on the shaft.
