How-to assemble Fliteboard Air
1 Unroll Fliteboard AIR bladder face down.
2 Place the rigid core (Flitebox cavity side up) on a flat surface.
3 Slide bladder onto core from front end first.
4 Ensure bladder is well tucked into the recess along the front edge of the core.
5 Carefully stretch bladder over one rear corner first.
*Note that the rear underside edges of the core are deliberately shorter than the top face to make fitment of the bladder faster.
Stretch the bladder over the last corner. Again, be careful that the bladder is positioned evenly and not creased or caught.
6 Check bladder is seated correctly around the core before carefully flipping the Fliteboard AIR over.
7 Twist the valve cap anti-clockwise to remove.
8 To inflate, push the central valve down.
9 Twist anti-clockwise to release.
10 The valve will pop up. This ensures the bladder will not deflate when you remove the hose after inflation.
11 Connect pump hose to valve and inflate bladder to 15 – 16 PSI.
12 Once inflated to 15 – 16 PSI, twist the pump hose anti-clockwise to remove and re-fit the valve cover cap. When disconnecting the pump hose, no air should escape from the valve. If the bladder deflates you must release the central valve (see step 2) and re-inflate. Fliteboard AIR is now inflated.
CONNECT THE eFOIL to Fliteboard
1 Remove the Fliteboard from its bag and place upside down on the bag or other protective surface. Locate the Flitebox cavity on the bottom of the board and ensure the 4 retaining screws are removed.
2 Check to ensure the orange o-ring is inserted, properly seated in the Flitebox cavity o-ring groove, clean and free of sand,
grit or water.
3 Carefully lift the eFoil from its bag and place the Flitebox into the cavity. While doing this ensure the power cables feed through into the Fliteboard cavity.
4 Ensure the Flitebox is properly seated in the cavity and flush with the board surface.
5 Insert the 4 x 20mm Stainless Steel Hex fasteners. Tighten them in
a cross pattern, first using your fingers to ensure the threads are properly engaged, and then using the supplied hex key. Use a torque of 6 Nm to tighten the fasteners.
6 Medium force needs to be applied when using the long arm of the hex key to ensure the fasteners are tight.
7 When properly tightened, the eFoil should be secured and the o-ring compressed. Failure to properly tighten the fasteners or fit the o-ring will result in a board leak.
8 Be careful not to over-tighten the fasteners as this could result in stripped threads or damaged fasteners.
CONNECT FUSELAGE TAIL
1 With the board upside down and the eFoil connected, take the
20cm long aluminium fuselage tail from the travel bag and insert into the fin under the propeller guard. Add a light cover of Tef-Gel to the tail connection.
2 Add a thin layer of Tef-Gel from the tube supplied to the thread of the supplied 12mm fastener bolt and carefully tighten using the hex key using torque of 6 Nm.
CONNECT THE WING
1 Remove your front wing from the travel bag and from its wing cover (if attached – depending on model).
2 Place the wing in position as shown.
3 Insert the 3 fasteners taking care to ensure the correct set is being used for the particular wing model you are fitting (Refer to page 15). ALWAYS add Tef-Gel to the fasteners first. The fasteners should extend by approximately 6mm through the Wing when placed in the countersunk holes.
4 Tighten the fasteners with the supplied hex key, ensuring the fasteners are tight enough that the wing cannot move or wobble significantly during use. Use a torque of 6 Nm to tighten the fasteners.
CONNECT THE STABILISER WING
1 Take the Stabiliser Wing from the travel bag and remove the wing cover.
2 Take the correct Stabiliser Wing shim from the accessories pouch and fit between the Stabiliser Wing and the fuselage tail.
3 Connect the orange power cable to the orange power connector in Flitecell. You will feel a secure click when properly engaged.
4 To ensure correct mounting, direction and placement, the wing when installed correctly should have the wings tips facing away from you (the countersunk thread is an indication of this). The correct direction, is that of the rounded, curved leading edge facing the front wing.
ALWAYS ADD TEF-GEL TO THE STAINLESS STEEL FASTENERS THAT ARE BEING INSERTED INTO THE ALUMINIUM. IF LEAVING WINGS ATTACHED FOR EXTENDED PERIODS, ENSURE THAT YOU LOOSEN FASTENERS AND RE-APPLY TEF-GEL EVERY FEW WEEKS. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND DAMAGE TO YOUR EFOIL FASTENER INSERTS.
CONNECT FLITECELL TO FLITEBOARD
With the eFoil, fuselage tail and wings attached, it’s time to carefully turn your board over so it stands on BOTH the front wing and nose of the board.
1 Twist the Lid Latches and open the board Lid.
2 Take Flitecell by the handle and carefully lower it into the board cavity, ensuring to move cables out of the way first. The warning label should be facing up.
3 Connect the orange power cable to the orange power in Flitecell. You will feel a secure click when properly engaged.
4 Connect the black power cable to the black power in Flitecell.
4. Use a plastic pry tool between the propeller and the End Cap to remove the propeller from the motor shaft.IMPORTANT: Do not use a pry tool that will scratch the anodising on the End Cap as it will need to be replaced if so.
5. Remove the propeller pin and inspect for damage as per below.
INSTALLATION:
1. Place the eFoil in a support mount or similar fixture to hold it securely.
2. Ensure the propeller and the shaft is clean and clear of debris.
3. Place the propeller pin through the hole in the shaft.
4. Slide the propeller carefully onto the shaft. Ensure the propeller is seated correctly with the propeller pin.
5. Tighten the M8 nylon lock nut (right-hand thread – clockwise) while holding the propeller.
– Remove Flitecell from its travel bag.
– Place Flitecell in a cool dry location away from flammable or hot items.
– Connect Flitecell charger plugs to Flitecell terminals ensuring to connect the orange (positive) connector to the orange terminal first and the black (negative) connector to the black terminal.
– Check that connections have been made correctly. Plug the
charger in the wall socket. A supplied magnet located in the accessories pack, is required to be placed on Flitecell, as shown by arrow, (5 – 10 seconds) to activate charging. If the magnet has been misplaced, you can use the base of Flite Controller to initiate charging.
– The charger will automatically turn off when the charging process is complete.
– The battery management system (BMS) balances and optimises Flitecell during each charge cycle.
– It is recommended to leave the Flitecell connected to a powered off charger after a full charging cycle, with the magnet still connected (this keeps the Flitecell On only).
– This ensures that both the terminals +/- are protected from shorting and the cells within the Flitecell continue to self-balance between use.

SafetyThe Fliteboard hydrofoil system comprises a mast (or strut), a main wing and stabiliser wing. These components include sharp trailing edges and wing tips. Take care not to kick or hit the sharp edges when in the water or when climbing on to the board.
The best way to avoid injury and stay clear of the foil and propulsion system is to practice the correct falling technique. As soon as you begin to loose balance, purposely fall in the direction the board is already falling. You will then likely end up in the water on the opposite side to the hydrofoil assembly.
1. FALLING ON THE HYDROFOIL CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
2. ALWAYS WEAR AN APPROVED PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE (PFD) WHEN FLITEBOARDING.
3. ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET WHEN FLITEBOARDING.
4. ENSURING SAFE WATER DEPTH IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT BEFORE RIDING. SELECT A LOCATION THAT IS HAS A MINIMUM DEPTH OF AT LEAST 1.5 METERS.
5. ALWAYS MONITOR BATTERY USAGE WHILE RIDING AND TAKE CARE NOT TO DEPLETE THE BATTERY BEFORE RETURNING TO YOUR POINT OF ORIGIN.
6. NEVER RIDE FLITEBOARD FURTHER FROM SHORE THAN YOU ARE PREPARED TO SWIM BACK.
IMPORTANT: TAKE EXTREME CARE TO ENSURE THAT ALL BODY PARTS ARE CLEAR OF THE PROPELLER WHEN TESTING ON LAND AND WHEN IN THE WATER.
1. Wear a helmet and PFD
Wear an approved and certified helmet and PFD (Personal Flotation Device) at all times. There may be specific rules and legal requirements in your location that also apply.
2. Keep distance
Keep well clear of other water users at all times. Check regulations for vessel operating distance rules in your area. Always be on the lookout for swimmers, other vessels or obstacles when riding which may be obscured by waves or glare.
3. Release the throttle
Release the trigger immediately on committing yourself to a fall. This will stop the propeller and reduce the forces which could otherwise lead to a more extreme crash. Practice this skill when learning with the goal of stopping the propeller before you hit the water in a fall.
4. Fall away from Fliteboard
The best way to avoid injury is to practice the correct falling technique. As soon as you begin to loose balance, purposely fall in the direction the board is already falling. You will then likely end up in the water on the opposite side to the hydrofoil assembly. Like being on stilts – it is impossible to regain balance once your weight is no longer above the hydrofoil wings (unless you are turning).
Flitecell (battery) is a carefully engineered water resistant unit. If the battery is damaged (for example during transportation or handling) the seal may become compromised. A damaged battery that comes into contact with water may result in internal damage including corrosion which could result in a fire and or explosion.
1. USE THE BATTERY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
2. DO NOT OPEN FLITEBOARD LID UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES WHILST IN WATER.
