Getting Started in R/C Model Boating
Many different types of boats are available in today's hobby market. Ready-To-Run (RTR) boats are the fastest growing segment of the RC boating industry. Today's RTR boats are nearly the same cost of yesterday's boat kits but do not require the extensive build time. Most RTRs have the radio system and engine components pre-installed. They come in a variety of performance levels and usually include a 2-stick style radio or an AM Pistol Grip 2 channel radio. Regardless of which radio is used, RTR boats are now easier to use, require less maintenance, and can get you on the water in minutes rather than days. Not only are they easier to get running, but are VERY AFFORDABLE. Typical small scale nitro RTR's can cost as little as $300.00 COMPLETE! Most major hobby stores now carry these models in-stock.


SAFE BOAT OPERATING PROCEDURES

The Camarillo Pond Rats wish to help you operate your R/C boat in a safe manner. We think you will enjoy your boat operation much more by following these operating procedures. By following these procedures, you will protect anyone who may be watching you run your boat and also protect your boat from damage.

 

 

1. Pick up your frequency tag from the tag board. YOU MUST HAVE A SURFACE MODEL FREQUENCY RADIO. If the tag that you need is not on the board, it means that someone else is operating a boat on the same frequency as you. DO NOT PICK UP YOUR RADIO AND TURN IT ON!

2. After you have the tag for your frequency, you may pick up your radio from the radio impound.

3. Check operation of the radio, check battery, check range. Does both rudder and throttle operate? Does the throttle close the carburetor completely? It's more important to be able to stop the engine than to have full throttle. When the wheel is moved to the right and left , does the rudder move accordingly? 

When all tests are completed and everything is working properly, you are ready to start your engine.

 

REMEMBER: SAFE BOATING IS NO ACCIDENT!
