Every Venom R/C Electric Boat model is hand-made using the latest manufacturing techniques with the highest
possible standards. Your model is unique and may have blemishes due to the nature of the manufacturing
process. This is normal, and further adds to your boats originality.
While the Venom™ King of Shaves P1 35” RTR Electric Boat is incredibly fun, it is not a toy. It is very important that
you read and follow the steps detailed in this instruction and radio manual. Failure to follow the guidelines detailed
in these manuals could result in damage to property, permanent damage your model, or personal injury. It is very
important to use this product responsibly. Following these maintenance and operating guidelines will ensure years
of enjoyable use. When operating your model, always keep clear of full-size boats, solid objects, animals and
people. For best results, operate your Venom™ King of Shaves P1 35” RTR Electric Boat in calm water, low wind
conditions away from swimmers and wildlife. To avoid an out of control model, always perform a range check and
make sure that no other models are operating on the same frequency. Inspect your model for damaged props, loose
hardware and loose or missing screws before and after every run. If your model begins to operate erratically or if
you notice a change in its operation, stop using it immediately and do not use again until the issue is corrected.

STEP #1. Enter the programming mode.
Switch on the transmitter. Move the throttle trigger to the Full throttle position and then connect the battery pack to the
ESC.
Wait for 2 seconds, the motor emits “Beep-Beep” tone.
Wait for 5 seconds, the motor emits a special musical tone noting that the program mode has been entered.
STEP #2. Select a tuning category.
You will hear 4 groups of repeating “Beep” tones when you enter the programming mode. If you move the throttle to
the neutral position within 3 seconds after one of the 4 tones, this tuning catagory will be selected.
1. “Beep” Running Mode
2. “Beep-Beep” Lipo Cells
3. “Beep-Beep-Beep” Low Voltage Cutoff Threshold
4. “Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep” Timing
STEP #3. Choose the new value for the tuning category.
After entering a tuning category you will hear several repeated tones. To set the desired value, move the throttle
trigger to the Full throttle position after you hear the tone. A special musical tone will emit, signifying the value has
been chosen and saved in the ESC. NOTE: If you keep the throttle trigger in the Full throttle position you will go back
to step #2 and you can select a different tuning category. If you move the throttle to the neutral position within 2
seconds you will exit program mode.
STEP #4 Exit program mode.
There are 2 methods to exit the program mode:
Method 1
In Step #3, after choosing the value the motor will emit a special musical tone. Move the throttle to the neutral position
within 2 seconds and you will exit program mode.
Method 2
Disconnect the battery pack from the ESC to force quit and exit the program.
CAUTION: LOW VOLTAGE CUT OFF
Do not use “NO PROTECTION” when using LiPO battery packs. Monitor the battery pack temperatures after
each run. Do not allow the battery pack temperatures to exceed 120º F/ 52º C while in use. Select a higher low
voltage cutoff setting to help reduce the temperature of the battery packs. It is OK to use “NO PROTECTION”
when using NiCD or NiMH battery packs.

Slide the prop onto the drive shaft making sure to align the notch with the drive dog. Use the supplied lock nut to secure the
prop to the propshafts. Use caution when installing the prop as it may have extremely sharp edges. If you are using a
aftermarket prop, make sure it is sized for a 4mm prop shaft. If you are not using a 4mm prop, you will need to shim the prop
shaft or use an adapter to increase the diameter to .187 inch.

Loosen the drive using a pair of needle nose pliers and a 2.5mm Hex Driver. Adjust the drive up or down to change the
running angle of the boat. Use the etched angle markings on the drive as a guide.
The alignment of the propeller shaft is parallel to the bottom of
the hull (Keel) which is considered zero degrees (0 deg) and a
neutral setting. The thrust of the propeller is in line with the
center of the hull and has no effect on the hull ride angle.
