[PH Boater]

Hi
I am new a RC boating and bought a Joysway - Off Shore Warrior. Brushless Motor drive
It quit after a few minutes on the second time out.
It makes a constant beeping sound with the red light flashing on the ESC.

Can someone tell me how to fix this?

Hi,

I take it that this is a RTR version, personally i would try re modulating the transmitter and reciever. If you dont have any luck than i would suggest that you contact the company who you bought it off and they will probably contact ripmax. I havent ever had this problem, it meant to make 3 beeps and then its ready to go.

Thanks

Ben

Hi PH

This might be your problem.

If it is an RTR (ready to run) boat, were there any other boaters around when you sailed it?
Most RTR boats have a low power transmitter with a broad 27MHz frequency  band. These might be described as toy grade, as most RC toys have this type of radio.

Other27Mhz  radio sets that might be described as hobby grade have a very narrow frequency band (channel) and are much more powerful. They will swamp/jamb the signals from toy grade RC sets.
This is a common problems and easy to fix.

If this is the case, there are only two solutions. Firstly, sail on your own. Secondly, replace the radio transmitter and receiver in the  boat, for hobby grade items.


Other than that, sorry I can't offer any help.
