Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver of
the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique
Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. The DX2E
and MR200 are bound at the factory. If you need to
rebind, follow the instructions below.
1. With the receiver off, insert the
bind plug into the BIND port on the
receiver.
2. When a battery is connected to the
ESC and the ESC is connected to
the throttle port on the receiver,
power on the ESC switch. An LED on the receiver will
flash rapidly, showing the receiver is in Bind mode.
3. Do not touch the throttle or steering controls, as this
sets failsafe settings. The throttle and throttle trim
should always be at the lowest setting during bind
mode. Press and hold the bind button and power
on the transmitter. The green LED on the front of the
transmitter will flash within three seconds, indicating
the transmitter is in bind mode.

Testing Your Boat in the Water

1. Carefully place the boat in the water.
2. Operate the boat at slow speeds near the shoreline.
Avoid objects in the water at all times.
3. Once you are comfortable operating the boat at
slow speeds, it is safe to operate the boat farther
from the shore.
4. When the boat is moving forward, ensure water flows
out of the coolant outlet. Remove any blockage from
the rudder inlet and coolant system or the motor and
ESC (electronic speed control) may overheat.

Boating Tips

CAUTION: Always ensure you are operating
this boat a safe distance (15 feet, 5 meters) away
from people and/or other vehicles in the water.
Avoid boating near other watercraft, stationary objects,
waves, wakes and other rapidly moving water, wildlife,
floating debris or overhanging trees. You should also be
careful to avoid boating in areas where there are many
people, such as swimming areas, park waterways or
fishing areas. Consult local laws and ordinances before
choosing a location to pilot your boat.
Maximum speeds are only achieved when the water
conditions are smooth and there is little wind. A sharp
turn, wind or waves can turn over a boat when it is
moving quickly. Always pilot your boat for the wind and
water conditions so that the boat does not turn over.

5. The receiver's LED will turn solid when
the transmitter and receiver are bound.
6. Remove the bind plug and store it in
a convenient place.
You must rebind when:
• Changing receiver types e.g., changing from a DSM
receiver to a DSM2 ® or Marine receiver.
• Binding the receiver to a different transmitter.
Important: If you are using too much steering trim
on your transmitter to make the boat steer straight,
mechanically center the rudder. Return the steering
control to neutral, loosen the ball link on the rudder
horn, then turn the linkage threads until the ruder is
centered
5. Bring the boat back to shore when you notice
the boat starting to lose speed.
6. Power off the ESC and disconnect the battery packs.
7. Allow the motor, ESC and battery packs to cool before
charging the batteries or operating the boat again.
NOTICE: Do not turn off the transmitter first
or the receiver may pick up stray signals and
run out of control.
When running your boat for the first time, we
recommend calm wind and water conditions so that
you can learn how the boat responds to your control.
When making turns, decrease the throttle position
in order to decrease speed and probability of flipping
the boat over.
NOTICE: When running at full speed in choppy
waters, the prop may exit and re-enter the water
repeatedly and very quickly, subjecting the propeller
to some stress. Frequent stress may damage
the propeller.
CAUTION: Never retrieve your boat from
the water in extreme temperatures, turbulence
or without supervision.
