Throw the explosive with the attack button and use the aim button to detonate it. Practice in desolate neighborhoods so that when you use them in an actual match, you do it well.

Remote explosives are detonated when shot and so, it is best to throw it and have it stick to a surface or vehicle. Keep a safe distance between you (as well as your teammates) and the C4 before you set it off. This is a manual explosive and so, ownership can be transferred if someone else shoots it. Be careful out there!

The max amount of explosives that any one player can place is 5 full stacks of 6 (30 explosives in total). There is a short delay before detonation, with one going off after another. And so, you can plant C4 in the battlefield to set up a trap.

Remember, this is one weapon that has no real master. If an enemy shoots your bomb while you are close to it, you will be damaged to the max. And so, it is best to keep your eyes peeled for bomber vehicles lined with remote explosives.
