What is the maximum battery size I can use?

You can use any standard 12V marine battery, including lithium-ion, provided it fits your boat's weight capacity and connection requirements.

Does the motor come with a propeller?

How do I charge my phone using the motor?

Simply plug your device's USB charging cable directly into the designated port on the motor housing.

Does the motor feature a reverse gear?

Yes, the remote-controlled system allows for steering in both forward and reverse directions.

Troubleshooting

Motor fails to start or respond to remote

Check battery connections for tightness and ensure the battery is charged. Verify that the remote is paired and has sufficient battery power.

Display is not showing voltage

Ensure the main power lead is firmly connected to the battery terminals and verify that the motor's master switch is in the on position.

Reduced speed or power output

Check for debris like weeds or fishing line wrapped around the propeller, which can create drag and trigger the electronic protection system.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight design at only 4.95 kg
  • Fully remote-controlled for convenient operation
  • Saltwater-resistant components for durability
  • Highly energy-efficient PWM and RATOR technology
  • Compatible with modern lithium batteries

Cons

  • Limited 28 lbs of thrust is not suitable for large boats

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation involves securing the motor mount to the bow or stern of your craft. Ensure the 75cm stainless steel shaft is adjusted to the appropriate depth to avoid air cavitation. The motor is compatible with both deep-cycle lead-acid and lithium batteries. For care, always rinse the motor with fresh water after use in salt water to prevent mineral buildup on the stainless steel shaft. Periodically check the mounting hardware for tightness and ensure the electrical terminals are free of corrosion. Keep the remote control dry and stored in a protective pouch when not in active use.
