EN Introduction Pro Boat® RC models look as good as they perform. Our boats, which include everything from scale sailboats to fully licensed powerboats, exceed expectations and provide years of radio control fun and excitement. Whether your passion leads you towards the pure serenity of sailing or the all-out speed of a Deep-V, Pro Boat models fit your taste, budget and lifestyle.
EN Battery Safety Precautions • When using a Li-Po battery, always ensure the Battery Chemistry Switch is in the ON position. • Always disconnect a battery from the ESC when not in use. • Never discharge a Li-Po battery below 3V per cell. • Avoid continually operating to LVC, as this could result in damage to the battery. Installing the Battery Pack 1. Turn the latch so the tab is parallel with the back of the hull, then lift the hatch up and back from the hull. 2. Remove the radio box cover. 3.
EN Battery Chemistry Switch This switch allows the ESC to detect voltage. When the switch is in the OFF position, low voltage cutoff (LVC) is disabled. You will know you have reached LVC when the motor power decreases while the boat is in operation. Li-Po: move the battery chemistry switch to the ON position Ni-MH: move the battery chemistry switch to the OFF position. Tip: The ESC programming card (DYNM3821, sold separately) allows the consumer to adjust low voltage cutoff and other ESC programming.
EN Transmitter Controls Reverse Switch BIND ST N TH R N R Allows you to change the direction of steering (ST. REV) and throttle (TH. REV) controls. Perform transmitter test to ensure proper function.
EN Getting Started 1. Power on the transmitter. 4. Power on the ESC switch. 2. Turn ON the Li-Po battery switch (when using Li-Po batteries). 5. Do a test of the transmitter’s control of the boat with the boat on the display stand. 6. After launching the boat in the water, start driving slowly, and, if the boat does not go straight, adjust the steering trim dial on the transmitter. 3. Connect the batteries. ST. TRIM 1 2 R POWE TH. TRIM 4 3 ST. RATE ST. TRIM POWER 5 ST. RATE TH.
EN Binding Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. The DX2E and MR200 are bound at the factory. If you need to rebind, follow the instructions below. 1. With the receiver off, insert the bind plug into the BIND port on the receiver. 2. When the batteries are connected to the ESC and the ESC is connected to the throttle port on the receiver, power on the ESC switch.
EN Center of Gravity Moving the batteries to the front or back can significantly affect the boat's performance. 2. Move the batteries toward the front of the boat for faster initial acceleration, to eliminate oscillation or bouncing, and to increase stability. 1. Move the batteries toward the rear of the boat to raise the front of the hull out of the water for increased speed.
A A EN Maintenance Always replace the flex shaft when it is damaged or shows visible wear or injury and property Bdamage may result. Lubricating the flex shaft is vital to the life of the drivetrain. The lubricant also acts as a water seal, keeping water from entering the hull through the stuffing box. 4. Carefully reinstall the flex shaft in the drive strut, stuffing box and collet.
EN ESC The included ESC programming card (DYNM3821) allows you to quickly program your Dynamite® Marine Brushless ESC control settings. Brake: ON or OFF ON: The boat will stop immediately when the throttle is returned to neutral. OFF: The boat will coast to a stop. Programmable Settings Timing: Low Timing or High Timing Throttle Reverse: ON or OFF Cutoff Voltage: High Cutoff or Low Cutoff High Cutoff: The Ni-MH Cutoff voltage is .9 volts per cell and the Li-Po Cutoff is 3.3 volts per cell.
EN Checklists Before Boating After Boating • Install fully charged batteries in your boat and transmitter • • Connect the boat’s battery to the ESC Always power off the receiver before powering off the transmitter to maintain control of the boat and to retain transmitter binding • Make sure the boat is bound to the transmitter (otherwise, bind the boat to the transmitter using the included binding instructions) • Disconnect the battery from the receiver and remove the batteries from the boat •
EN Troubleshooting Guide Boat will not connect (after binding) to transmitter Boat tends to dive in the water or takes on water Transmitter is too near boat during connecting process Move powered transmitter a few feet from boat, disconnect and reconnect battery to boat Boat or transmitter is too close to large metal object, wireless source or another transmitter Move the boat and transmitter to another location and attempt connecting again Bind plug is left installed Rebind transmitter to boat and
