4. Operating Instructions
4.1. Pairing the Remote Control
Each boat and remote operates on a 2.4GHz frequency, allowing multiple boats to be used simultaneously without interference.
- Ensure the boat battery is installed and the boat is placed in water. The boat features an automatic water shut-off sensor, meaning propellers will not rotate out of water.
- Turn on the remote controller.
- The remote and boat should automatically pair. If not, turn both off and on again.
