Please read these instructions carefully before attempting to operate your boat. Table of Contents Introduction.............................................
General Guidelines and Safety Precautions It is important that you read and follow this instruction manual, along with the radio system manual before you run this exciting boat. Failure to read and understand the manual could result in personal injury, property damage or permanent damage to your boat. It is also important to run your boat responsibly. With proper care and maintenance, you will be able to proudly enjoy your ShockWave 26 Brushless Deep-V for many years to come.
Contents and Inspection Carefully remove the boat and radio transmitter from the box. Inspect the boat to make sure no damage is present. If you notice damage is present, please contact the hobby shop where you purchased it. Contents Include • Assembled ShockWave 26 Brushless EP RTR • Pro Boat radio transmitter • Boat stand Receiver Antenna Installation Ensure the antenna is properly placed through the antenna tube.
Adjusting the Transmitter Note: Refer to the radio instructions for specific information on transmitter setup. Adjust the rudder trim knob so the rudder is centered prior to operation. You may adjust this control to make the boat run straight during operation. Adjust both the Throttle and Steering trims to the center position. Turn on the transmitter, then connect the battery to the ESC.
Installing the Battery Pack The Pro Boat water-cooled ESC comes prewired with a Deans connector. Use a 6-cell battery pack listed below for optimum performance. • PRB3313 7 .2V 3600mAh with Deans Connector • PRB3314 7 .2V 4200mAh with Deans Connectors • DYN5360D 7 .4V 5300mAh 25C Li-Po with Deans connector Due to the high-current demands of a brushless powered boat, Pro Boat recommends only the batteries listed above or equivalent. Install a fully charged battery pack into the hull.
Radio System Binding The Pro Boat Radio System with Spektrum 2.4GHz DSM included in the ShockWave 26 Brushless operates on a frequency of 2.4GHz, and provides 79 different “channels” which are automatically selected when the transmitter and vehicle are turned on. The communication between the transmitter and receiver starts in the few seconds after the transmitter and vehicle are both turned on. This is called the binding process.
Checking the Radio System The control arm should move toward the back of the boat when right input is given. Conversely, when left input is given, the control arm should move toward the front of the boat. The ESC will beep until you give full throttle input. Do not hold full throttle for more than a brief moment or damage to the drive system and electronics may occur from over-revving. Once the boat is in the water, full throttle may be held indefinitely.
Testing Your Boat in the Water Make sure the radio is ON and the battery is plugged into the speed controller. Test the radio system for proper operation, then carefully place the boat in the water. Pilot the boat at slow speeds, staying close to the shoreline to ensure you have good control and the boat is functioning correctly. Be certain to avoid all objects in the water at all times.
Maintenance Before and at the end of each run, make sure all screws are tight and the propeller is free from any entanglement. Speed Control Programming Note: Do not turn off the transmitter first or the receiver may run out of control. The electronic speed control (ESC) features a Ni-MH/Li-Po switch to easily change the cutoff voltage for each battery type.
Lubricating the Drive Shaft 4. Clean any debris and dirt from the flex shaft with a degreasing cleaner. Lubricate the drive shaft with thin oil. Reinstall the drive shaft in reverse order. Be sure to reinstall the nylon washer between the universal and the stuffing box. 2. Use a 1.5mm hex wrench to loosen the setscrew connecting the propeller drive shaft to the universal joint. Remove the propeller shaft from the outdrive.
