Newbie question. New to RC boating and looking for information

[Back-lash]

First of all, Happy Holidays to everyone. I was lucky enough to receive a Impulse 31 for Christmas, and I'm trying to learn as much as possible. I've been reading thread after thread on this forum and have already learned a few things. Does anyone have a link or area where I can read up on this exciting new world I'm getting into. I'm looking to learn proper boat setup, battery information, etc.

Thanks, Ernie.

Right here on this forum is the best place to start! I am pretty new to boats too but a few simple things I have learned from guys on here would be. Temps,Temps,Temps(all ways check your temps!),only change one thing at a time on your set-up so you can understand what that change is doing to your craft,patience is a must(even when asking questions on the forum)so many things but so much fun so........ WELCOME!!! The Impulse31 is a awesome first boat!

This link here is a good read and really helped me out in understanding a few things.
