Section 6: Testing Your Boat in the Water

Make sure the radio is "ON" and the
batteries are plugged into the speed
controller. Test the radio system for proper
operation and then carefully place the boat
in the water. Pilot the boat at slow speeds,
staying close to the shoreline to ensure
you have good control and that the boat is
functioning correctly. Be certain to avoid all
objects in the water at all times.
Operate your WidowMaker 22 Brushless EP
in low to medium wake conditions to avoid
having problems with the boat overturning.
If the conditions are questionable, adjust the
prop strut down a bit to reduce the likelihood
of having the boat overturn. The motor
mount is slotted to allow you to move the
motor slightly when adjusting the propeller
strut. Loosen the motor mounting screws
when adjusting the propeller strut angle and
retighten after adjustment is complete.

Once you feel comfortable with the control of
your boat, it is safe to go further away from
the shoreline and at faster speeds. When you
notice the boat beginning to lose speed, bring
the boat back to shore. It will be necessary to
allow the electronic components to cool down
and to replace or recharge the battery before
heading out again.
You may also turn the dual rate dial
down to reduce rudder travel in rough
water conditions.
