8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Boat does not respond to remote control. | Low battery in boat or remote; not paired; out of range. | Charge batteries; re-pair boat and remote; bring boat closer to remote. |
| Boat moves erratically or drifts. | Propellers entangled; motor issue; strong currents. | Check and clear propellers; ensure gyroscope is functioning (auto-calibration). |
| Bait hoppers do not open. | Mechanism jammed; remote control issue. | Check for obstructions in the hopper mechanism; ensure remote control batteries are good. |
| Low Battery Alarm (flashing lights, beeping remote). | Hull battery is low. | Immediately recall the boat and replace or recharge the hull battery. |
| Lost Contact Reminder (ship icon disappears on remote). | Weak or lost signal. | Recall the boat to a closer range or an area with better signal. |
