Operating Instructions

Basic Controls

The remote control allows for full-function control: forward, backward, left, and right.

• Forward/Backward: Use the left joystick (or designated control) to move the Hover Racer forward or backward.
• Left/Right: Use the right joystick (or designated control) to steer the Hover Racer left or right.
• The dual propeller system provides excellent speed and maneuverability.

Operating on Land

The Hover Racer glides smoothly over flat, dry surfaces.

• Ensure the operating area is clear of debris, loose gravel, or tall grass that could obstruct movement or damage propellers.
• Practice basic controls in an open space to get accustomed to its handling.

Operating on Water

The Hover Racer features a water-resistant body, allowing it to operate on water surfaces.

• Only operate in calm, shallow water, free from strong currents, weeds, or other obstacles.
• Ensure all battery compartments and covers are securely sealed before placing the Hover Racer in water.
• Avoid operating in saltwater, as it can cause corrosion over time.
• After water play, always rinse the Hover Racer with fresh water and allow it to air dry completely before storage.

Low Battery Signal

The remote control is equipped with a low power battery signal. When the Hover Racer's battery is low, the remote control will provide an indication (e.g., flashing light, audible alert). When this occurs, bring the Hover Racer back to you and recharge its battery.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: After use, especially in water, gently wipe the Hover Racer with a damp cloth. For water operation, rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh chemicals.
• Storage: Store the Hover Racer and remote control in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Remove batteries from both devices if storing for extended periods.
• Propellers: Regularly check propellers for any damage or debris. Clear any obstructions carefully.
