General Guidelines

It is important that you read and follow
this instruction manual, along with the
radio system manual before you run
this exciting boat. Failure to read and
understand the manual could result
is personal injury, property damage
or permanent damage to your boat.
It is also important to run your boat
responsibly. With proper care and
maintenance, you will be able to proudly
enjoy your Blackjack 26 Brushless
Catamaran for many years to come.

When operating the boat, stay clear of
people, full-scale boats, stationary objects
and wildlife. It is preferable to operate
the Blackjack 26 Brushless Catamaran
in low wake, low wind conditions and in
areas free of people, wildlife and objects.

Before you operate your model, make
sure that your frequency is clear. If
someone is operating on the same
frequency, both models could go out of
control, possibly causing damage to the
models or to others. Check all of the
hardware, and the propeller for damage
and loose screws before and after each
run.

If at any time while operating your model
you sense any abnormal function, end
your operation immediately. Do not
operate your boat again until you are
certain the problem has been corrected.
