1. Loosen the screw on the rear of the canopy.

2. Disengage the front of the canopy from the hull and

remove the canopy.

3. Install the battery in the compartment. Secure it with

the hook and loop straps. If running your boat in rougher

water conditions, the use of hook and loop tape may

also be needed to fully secure the battery.

4. Connect the battery pack to the ESC power connector.

Installing the Battery Pack

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

Discharging a Li-Po battery below 3V per cell may damage

your battery. The included ESC protects the boat battery

from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before

the battery charge decreases too much, LVC removes

power supplied to the motor. Power to the motor pulses,

showing that some battery power is reserved for boat

control and safe landing.

Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the boat

after use to prevent trickle discharge. Charge your Li-Po

battery to about half capacity before storage. During

storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall below

3V per cell. LVC does not prevent the battery from over-

discharge during storage.

NOTICE: Repeated operation to LVC will damage the

battery.

Tip: Monitor your boat battery’s voltage before and after

boating by using a Li-Po Cell Voltage Checker (EFLA111,

sold separately).

Battery Chemistry

The ESC comes from the factory in Li-Po Mode. To change

battery chemistry:

1. Keep the throttle at neutral and power ON the ESC.

2. Press and hold the Battery Chemistry Button on the

power switch for 3 seconds. The LED flashes the

current battery chemistry (red = Ni-MH, green = Li-Po).

3. Continue holding the Battery Chemistry Button for

another 6 seconds. The ESC changes battery chemistry

and the LED flashes the new battery chemistry.

4. Power OFF the ESC. The ESC saves the setting until it

is changed.
