Set Property of ViewController from Another Storyboard

I'm trying to set a property (NSManagedObject) of a view controller in another storyboard and present it:

UIStoryboard* storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MySecondStoryboard" bundle:nil];
MyViewController* initialView = [storyboard instantiateInitialViewController];
initialView.entity= self.entity;
initialView.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
[self presentViewController:initialView animated:YES completion:nil];

But when it gets to

initialView.entity= self.entity;

I get

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[UINavigationController setEntity:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance

Interestingly, 

MyViewController* initialView = [[MyViewController alloc] init];
initialView.entity= self.entity;

works, but I can't load it because it should be instantiated by its storyboard.

Thanks in advance

Make sure that you have connected the MyViewcontroller to the correct storyboard view controller, and the story board is marked as initial. then try casting like 

MyViewController* initialView =(MyViewController *) [storyboard instantiateInitialViewController];

First replace:

MyViewController* initialView = [storyboard instantiateInitialViewController];

with:

MyViewController* initialView = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"ID"];

Last go to your second storyboard and go to your view controller. Set the storyboard ID to "ID".
