After sailing, rinse with fresh water if exposed to salt, dry thoroughly, and inspect gears and bearings for wear. Replace worn parts to keep performance sharp.
The S5801 is rated for 6.0 to 7.2V; using the higher end increases speed to 0.5 sec/360 degrees but stay within the specified voltage range to avoid damage.
