User Manual

• After each use, remove the drain plug and hold the boat
upright to drain all water from inside the hull.
• Reinstall the drain plug.
• Fully dry the inside and outside of the boat, including the
water cooling lines and jacket around the motor.
• Remove the boat hatch, open the grease catch and all
hatch doors (including the receiver box), and leave them
propped open before storing your boat. We recommend
placing the boat upside down to allow the water to
continue to drain.
• Repair any damage or wear to the boat.
• Make note of lessons learned from the trimming of your
boat, including water and wind conditions.
NOTICE: When you are finished boating, never leave the
boat in direct sunlight or in a hot, enclosed area such as a
car. Doing so can damage the boat.
After Boating and Maintenance
Binding
Binding is the process of programming the receiver to rec-
ognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single
specific transmitter. The DX3™ transmitter and SR6110AT
receiver are bound at the factory. If you need to rebind, follow
the instructions below. You must rebind when:
• Different failsafe positions are desired e.g., when throttle
or steering reversing has been changed.
• Binding the receiver to a different transmitter.
• Binding the transmitter to a different receiver.
1. Connect power to the receiver and quickly press and
release the bind button three times (within 1.5 seconds).
2. Press and hold the bind button and to put the receiver in
bind mode. release the buton when the LED starts to flash
rapidly, indicating it is in bind mode.
The Blackjack 42 is equipped with the AR6110AT long range
telemetry receiver. The AVC portion of this receiver is disabled
(Default). AVC must be deactivated to achieve maximum
performance and proper operation of the Blackjack 42.
When the AVC system has been disabled, the LED on the
receiver will show three flashes upon power up, and then
remain lit. The receiver is bound and operating normally when
the LED remains illuminated.
TIP: If the AVC feature in the receiver is active and the AVC
menu in the transmitter is Inhibited, AVC functions will default
to the AUX 1 and AUX 2 operation, and in this scenario, AVC
will not work correctly.
Selecting INH in the AVC menu on your transmitter will
not disable AVC.
Power
Bind
In the unlikely event that the radio connection is lost during
use, the receiver will drive the servo and ESC to their pre-
programmed failsafe positions (normally no throttle and
straight steering).
If the receiver is powered on before powering on the
transmitter, the receiver will enter this failsafe mode. When
the transmitter is powered on, normal control is resumed.
Failsafe
If using a SMART ESC and SMART battery, the transmitter SMART Battery Level indicator will show the vehicle battery level within
10 seconds of powering on and binding.
