Introduction

The Rage™Black Marlin BL will have you racing across your local pond or lake with brushless power in no me.

The impressive speed is generated by the installed powerful brushless 3500KV motor in combinaon with a

20A Water-Cooled ESC with reverse and the included 3S 1800mAh LiPo baery pack. The great handling of the

Black Marlin BL comes from the pre-installed stainless steel trim tabs and turn ﬁns that provide great control

and the ability to “turn on a dime”. The BL also has a durable uni-body ABS hull that comes pre-painted with a

unique black mae ﬁnish and a pre-applied trim scheme that provides a sleek, aggressive look.

The Black Marlin BL is a RTR (Ready-To-Run) boat that arrives 100% factory-assembled out of the box with a

2-channel, 2.4 GHz radio system that features fully proporonal steering and throle control, a 17gram water-

proof servo, and a convenient DC charger with an AC power supply that plugs into any electrical outlet. The

BL also comes with a display stand that proudly shows it oﬀwhen you’re not out running it. Plus, even the AA

baeries for your transmier are included, so you can be racing your Black Marlin BL with brushless power

across your local pond or lake within minutes of opening the box!

Quick Start Guide

If you’re an experienced RC driver or pilot, this list will give you all the informaon you need to get started

driving you’re new boat as quickly as possible. If this is your ﬁrst RC vehicle, it is strongly recommended that

you read the ENTIRE manual before you aempt to operate your new boat.

Before Boang

1. Before turning on your transmier, it is important to make sure that the Throle Rao Switch at the top

of the transmier is located so that you can read 5:5 on the switch. The transmier should arrive from

the factory ﬁxed in this posion, but it is important to conﬁrm before turning on the transmier. If it is

not ﬁxed in this posion, it must be moved there before operaon. We strongly suggest that once in that

posion the switch should be locked so that it cannot be moved. For addional details, please see page

9 of this manual.

2. Turn on your transmier.

3. Install your fully charged baeries in both the boat and transmier. Make sure you use the Velcro on

your baery to securely aach it to the Velcro at the boom of the boat’s hull.

4. Make sure the transmier throle trigger and trim are centered, and the switch on the top of the

transmier is posioned toward the rear in the 5:5 posion.

5. Connect the baery plug to the ESC plug inside the boat.

6. Make sure the boat is bound to the transmier. If not, bind the boat to the transmier using the binding

instrucons in the included transmier manual.

7. Make sure all controls – rudder and throle – move freely and are turning in the correct direcon. If not,

refer to the included transmier manual for direcons.

8. Adjust the steering rate on your transmier, as desired.

9. Find a safe and open boang area.

10. Plan a safe boang route for the water and wind condions.

Aer Boang

1. Always unplug the baery from the ESC before turning oﬀyour transmier to make sure the boat cannot

be controlled by another device.

2. Remove the baery pack from the boat.

3. Make sure the outside of the boat and inside of the hull are completely dried out before storing your

boat. Keep the hatch oﬀthe boat during storage to ensure that mold and mildew are not allowed to

grow and damage the components.

4. Repair and damage or wear to the boat before running it again.

5. Make sure to lubricate the ﬂex shaaer 2 to 3 hours of running me.

6. Make note of lessons learned from each operaon of the boat – including trimming needed, and water

and wind condions.

Have fun boaƟng!

injury could result.

• Due to the sharp hardware, do not operate near or around inﬂatable objects.

• Keep a safe distance in all direcons around your boat to avoid possible collisions or injury. This boat is

controlled by a radio signal that is subject to interference from many outside sources and could result in a

momentary loss of control.

• Always avoid water exposure to all equipment not speciﬁcally designed and protected for this purpose.

Moisture can damage to unprotected electronics.

• Make sure to keep all chemicals, small parts and anything electrical out of the reach of children.

Age Recommendations

This product is not a toy. Not for use by children under 14 years of age.

Battery Safety Precautions

Important Note: Lithium Polymer (LiPo) baeries are more volale than the alkaline, NiCad and NiMH

baeries used in other RC applicaons. All instrucons and warnings must be followed exactly to prevent

possible personal injury or damage to property, including by ﬁre. By handling, charging, or using the included

LiPo baery you assume all potenal risks. If you do not agree with these condions, please return your

complete product in new, unused condion to the place of purchase immediately.

Important - Please read the following safety instrucons and warnings before handling, charging, or using the

included baery.

• You must charge you LiPo baery in a safe area away from any ﬂammable materials.

• Never charge the LiPo baery unaended at any me. When charging the baery you should always

remain in constant observaon of the baery to monitor the process and react immediately to potenal

problems you observe.

• Aer discharging the baery during running the boat you must allow it to cool to ambient room

temperature before aempng to recharge. Also, it is NOT recommended that you completely discharge

the baery before charging. It is safe to charge parally discharged baeries when using an appropriate

LiPo charge

• For charging the baery you must use only the included charger or a suitably compable LiPo baery

charger. Failure to do so may result in a ﬁre causing property damage and/or personal injury. DO NOT use a

NiCad or NiMh charger to charge your new LiPo baery.

• If at any me during the charge or discharge process the baery begins to “balloon” or swell, disconnue

charging or discharging immediately! Quickly and safely disconnect the baery before placing it in a safe,

open area away from ﬂammable materials for observaon for at least 15 minutes. Con

nuing to charge

or discharge a baery that has started to “balloon” or swell can result in a ﬁre. Important note: A baery

that has “ballooned” or swollen even a small amount must be removed from service immediately and

completely.

• Never discharge a LiPo baery below 3V per cell.

• Always disconnect a baery from the ESC when the product is not in use.

• Avoid connually operang the baery to LVC (Low Voltage Cutoﬀ) as this could result in damage to the

baery.

• Store the baery parally charged (approximately 50% charged or 3.85V per cell) at room temperature

(approximately 68 to 77o Fahrenheit) in a dry area for best result

• When transporng or temporarily storing the baery, the temperature range should be between 40 to

100F. Do not store the baery or boat in a hot car or in direct sunlight whenever possible or the baery

could be damaged or even catch ﬁre.

• LiPo cells should not be discharged to below 3.0V each. In the case of this 3-cell, 11.1V baery you should

not allow the voltage to fall below 9.0V during operaon.

• Do not over-discharge the LiPo baery, which could result in reduced power, lower run mes or complete

failure of the baery.

NOTE: The included ESC features a “so” LVC (Low Voltage Cutoﬀ) that smoothly reduces power to the motor

(regardless of your throle posion) to let you know that the voltage to the baery is near the 6.0V minimum

and avoid damage to your baery.

However, even before the LVC takes place, if you ﬁnd that more than typical throle is needed to power the

boat you should drive it back to you and disconnect the baery immediately to avoid over-discharge. It is

NOT recommended that you connue to drive the boat aer LVC occurs or permanent damage to the baery

could occur leading to reduced power and run mes with future use. Note that operaon of the baery is NOT

covered under warranty.

It is also not recommended that you connually run the baery to the “so” LVC with each operaon. You

should be aware of the power level of the baery each me you drive the boat and as soon as you ﬁnd that it

requires more throle than normal to maintain speed you should drive the boat back to you and disconnect

the baery immediately. Connually running the baery to the soLVC can cause permanent damage to the

baery, so it is best to keep track of your run me and disconnue use prior to reaching the soLVC.

Important Note: Do not leave the baery connected to the ESC unless you are ready to run the

boat. If the baery is leconnected when it is not in use, it will become over-discharged and

the baery will become damaged and unusable.

Important Note: Do not store the baery fully charged

For improved safety and longevity of the baery it is recommended that it be stored parally charged for

any length of me. Storing the Li-ion baery at approximately 50% charged (approximately 3.85V per cell) is

typically best. This will take some management of the charge me and the use of a voltmeter. If you do not

have the equipment or experience to maintain the 50% charge, simply be sure not to store the baery fully

charged whenever possible. In fact, as long as the baery will be stored at approximately room temperature

and for no more than a few weeks before the next use, it is beer to store the baery in the discharged state

aer the last use – as long as it was not over-discharged below the LVC.

LiPo Battery Warning

IMPORTANT NOTE: Lithium Polymer (LiPo) baeries

are signiﬁcantly more volale than alkaline, NiCd

or NiMH baeries also used in RC applicaons. All

instrucons and warnings must be followed exactly

to prevent property damage and/or personal injury

as mishandling of LiPo baeries can result in ﬁre. By

handling, charging or using the included LiPo baery

you assume all risks associated with LiPo baeries. If

you do not agree with these condions please return

the complete product in new, unused condion to the

place of purchase immediately.

• You MUST charge the LiPo baery in a safe area

away from ﬂammable materials.

• NEVER charge the LiPo baery unaended

at any me. When charging the baery you

should ALWAYS remain in constant observaon

to monitor the charging process and react

immediately to any potenal problems that may

occur.

• Aer discharging the baery you must allow it

to cool to ambient/room temperature before

recharging.

• To charge the LiPo baery you MUST use only the

included balance charger or suitable LiPo baery

charger. Failure to do so may result in a ﬁre

causing property damage and/or personal injury.

DO NOT use a NICD or NIMH charger.

• If at any me during the charge or discharge

process the baery begins to balloon or swell,

disconnue charging or discharging immediately.

Quickly and safely disconnect the baery, then

place it in a safe, open area away from ﬂammable

materials to observe for at least 15 minutes.

Connuing to charge or discharge a baery that

has begun to balloon or swell can result in a ﬁre.

A baery that has ballooned or swollen even a

small amount must be removed from service

completely.

• Store the baery at room temperature,

approximately 68–77° Fahrenheit (F), and in a dry

area for best results.

• When transporng or temporarily storing the

baery, the temperature range should be from

approximately 40–100°F. Do not store the baery

or model in a hot garage, car or direct sunlight

whenever possible. If stored in a hot garage or car

the baery can be damaged or even catch ﬁre!

• Do not over-discharge the LiPo baery.

Discharging the LiPo baery too low can cause

damage to the baery resulng in reduced power,

ﬂight duraon or failure of the baery enrely.

LiPo cells should not be discharged to below 3.0V

each under load. In the case of the 3-Cell/3S 11.1V

LiPo baery used to power the Black Marlin, you will

not want to allow the baery to fall below 9.0V during

operaon.

The electronic speed control (ESC) has low voltage

cutoﬀ(LVC) protecon. When the baery voltage

drops below a set point the throle is gradually

reduced. At this point the model will need to be

returned to shore and the baery recharged.

Charging the Battery

1. Plug the power supply into charger.

2. Plug the power supply into an AC power outlet.

3. Plug the 4-pin balance connector of the baery

into the charger. Maintain correct polarity

when plugging in 4-pin balance connector.

4. Both red and green LED’s will light during

charge. Only the green LED will remain lit when

charge is complete.

Important Charging Notes

PLACE THE CHARGER ON A FLAT, SMOOTH AND

HEATRESISTANT SURFACE.

It’s important that air is able to circulate through the

charger during the charging process in order to keep

it from over-heang. It’s especially important that

the vent openings on the boom and sides of the

charger are not blocked. DO NOT place the charger

on carpeted or other similar surfaces that may block

the vent openings. Also, DO NOT place the charger in

direct sunlight before, during or aer use.

It will take approximately 1 to 11/2hours to fully

charge a mostly discharged baery.

Battery Installation

1. Rotate the hatch lock on the hull cover either

clockwise or counter-clockwise to unlock the

hatch.

2. Remove the hull cover.

3. Place the baery with the hook fastener side

facing down to aach to the loop fastener that

is already adhered to the boom of the boat.

4. Ensure that the wires and plug are facing the

rear of the boat.

Throle Rao Switch

dŚƌŽƩůĞZĂƟŽ

^ǁŝƚĐŚƐĞƚƚŽϱϱ

To safely operate the Black Marlin BL, the switch

on the top of the transmier has been ﬁxed in the

5:5 posion, so that you should be able to read the

5:5 above the switch locaon. If, for any reason,

the switch is not in this posion, you MUST move it

before operang the boat. It is important to never

move the switch from the posion where you can

read 5:5.

WARNING: The switch on the top of the transmier

should arrive ﬁxed in locaon so that it can never be

moved. It is important to NEVER move this switch

from this locaon or the throle could engage the

propeller when the transmier is turned on and

potenally cause personal harm or injury.

Throle Trim

dŚƌŽƩůĞdƌŝŵ

The throle trim dial is used to adjust the throle

trim when the throle sck is released (neutral

posion). This is typically used to adjust the brakes.

Rotang the dial causes the throle trim (the throle

posion at rest) to be changed.

Steering Trim

The steering trim dial is used to adjust the steering

trim when the wheel is centered.

Rotang the dial changes the steering trim (the

steering at rest posion). Normally, the steering trim

is adjusted unl the vehicle tracks straight.

Receiver Connecon and Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver to

recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Idenﬁer) code

of a single speciﬁc transmier. When a receiver is

bound to a transmier, the receiver will only respond

to that speciﬁc transmier. If you need to rebind for

any reason, please follow these steps:

1. With the transmier switched OFF Insert the

bind cable to bind channel slot.

&Ăŝů^ĂĨĞƵƩŽŶ

5. Unplug the bind cable and then you are ready

to run.

CAUTION: DO NOT leave the bind cable in the bind

channel plug aer binding ﬁnished, otherwise the

binding program will work automacally each me

when you power on the receiver.

Failsafe Seng

The Black Marlin comes with the receiver failsafe set

to NONE. In the event of loss of signal the motor will

stop and the vehicle will dri. If the signal is regained

normal funcon will return. If you wish to program

the failsafe to a custom seng just follow these

simple steps:

1. With both the transmier and receiver

powered ON, press the bind buon on the

receiver for about 3 seconds.

2. The receiver will enter failsafe seng menu and

the receiver LED will ﬂash.

3. You have about 3 seconds to move the controls

to the posion that you wish to program into

failsafe.

4. Aer the 3 seconds the receiver will save the

sengs and return to normal mode.

5. If you wish to reset to a diﬀerent seng, simply

repeat above steps.
