So I dropped a SP50 in the lake today. I fished it out right away, but I can't get the cover off to save my life.... Is there a trick....
Definitely does not open like a jedi...

Re: Help... How to open a Radius SP50 - Sank
Take off the battery cover and remove the battery. Look at the bottom of the battery compartment. There is a protrusion that sticks out of the bottom, toward the rear. You should be able to see a split in this protrusion. Slide a thin-bladed screwdriver into the split, and gently pry downward. The inside of the battery compartment will lift out. Once you get it out, you should be able to see a double latch at the bottom of the battery compartment now. Gently pry upward on it with a screwdriver, and the entire rear cover should lift off. Make sure you "hinge" it from the top, so that it comes off of the battery contacts properly. Remove the knobs, then lift the bottom of the board and slide the board down until the control shafts clear the case. Enjoy!
If you need clarification, just ask and I'll try to post some pics.

Took it to pieces and put in front of a fan for the day. Put back together and works great.
Those covers are not so obvious as to how they come off... Thanks again for the help. I really didn't want to crack the case trying to force it open.
