Product Features
- Long Range & Safety Function: Equipped with advanced high-frequency wireless technology, offering a remote control distance of up to 500 meters (546 yards) without interference. Features an automatic return function if signal is lost, battery is low, or the boat goes out of range.
- Large Bait Containers: Three independently controlled bait containers with a total load capacity of 2 kg (4.4 lb), allowing for precise bait release.
- Long-Lasting Battery: Powered by a 12000 mAh rechargeable lithium battery, providing approximately 4 hours of continuous use. The battery can be charged independently of the boat.
- Robust Construction: The boat body is molded from impact-resistant, weather-resistant, wave-resistant, and scratch-resistant ABS material. Its streamlined, fully enclosed, and waterproof design reduces water resistance and enhances stability. Propeller covers prevent entanglement with aquatic vegetation.
- Integrated GPS: Features a built-in GPS module for precise positioning, cruising, automatic return, and marking fishing spots. Includes up to 4 fixed autopilot points and automatic return on connection loss or low battery.
- Night Vision Lights: Front and rear two-color lights for clear visibility and navigation during low-light conditions.
- Wind Resistance: Designed to withstand 7-8 level winds, suitable for both freshwater and saltwater environments.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the boat thoroughly with fresh water to prevent corrosion. Wipe it dry with a soft cloth.
- Battery Care:
- Always fully charge the battery before storage.
- Do not store the battery in extreme temperatures.
- If storing for extended periods, charge the battery every 3 months to maintain its health.
- Do not puncture or damage the battery.
- Propellers: Regularly check the propellers for any debris (weeds, fishing line) and remove them carefully to ensure smooth operation. The propeller covers help prevent entanglement.
- Storage: Store the bait boat and remote control in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Waterproofing: Ensure all covers and seals (e.g., battery compartment) are properly closed and secured before placing the boat in water to maintain its waterproof integrity.
Troubleshooting
