EN Water-resistant Boat with Waterproof Electronics Your new Horizon Hobby boat has been designed and built with a combination of waterproof and water-resistant components to allow you to operate the product in calm, fresh water conditions. While the entire boat is highly water-resistant, it is not completely waterproof and your boat should NOT be treated like a submarine.
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 Transmitter Controls Battery Level Indicator Reverse Switch Solid Red and Green: Battery voltage is good (above 4V). Solid Red: Battery voltage is critically low (below 4V). Replace transmitter batteries. Throttle Dual Rate Adjusts the maximum amount of throttle the vehicle can be given Allows you to change the direction of steering (ST. REV) and throttle (TH. REV) controls (Ensure proper function with a radio system test).
EN Antenna Tube Installation Install the receiver antenna in the tube as shown. Keep the end of the antenna above the boat’s waterline to get the best transmitter reception. Apply clear tape (DYNM0102), if desired. NOTICE: Do not cut or kink the receiver antenna or damage may result. Installing the Battery Pack 1. Loosen the 2 screws on the rear of the canopy. 2. Carefully lift the rear of the canopy and pull back to disengage the 2 front pins from the hull. 3. Install the battery in the compartment.
EN Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC) Battery Chemistry Discharging a Li-Po battery below 3V per cell may damage your battery.The included ESC protects the boat battery from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before the battery charge decreases too much, LVC removes power supplied to the motor. Power to the motor pulses, showing that some battery power is reserved for boat control and safe landing. The ESC comes from the factory in Li-Po Mode.
EN Range Check IMPORTANT: Perform a range check at the beginning of each boating session, after repair or after installation of new batteries. Ensure the receiver antenna is extended properly and all batteries are fully charged. 1. With the radio system powered on and connected, walk away from your boat 90 feet (32 m). 2. Have an assistant remain with the boat to check for proper control movement of the rudder in response to your transmitter input. 3.
EN Boating Tips When running your boat for the first time, we recommend calm wind and water conditions so that you can learn how the boat responds to your control. If the propeller and rudder are blocked with debris or vegetation, remove the boat from the water and remove the debris before continuing operation. Maximum speeds are only achieved when the water conditions are smooth and there is little wind. A sharp turn, wind or waves can turn over a boat when it is moving quickly.
EN After Boating and Maintenance • Drain water from inside the hull using the drain plug • Fully dry the inside and outside of the boat, including the water cooling lines and jacket around the motor • Remove the hatch before storing your boat • Repair any damage or wear to the boat • Lubricate the flex shaft using Pro Boat Marine Grease (PRB0100) • Make note of lessons learned from the trimming of your boat, including water and wind conditions NOTICE: When you are finished boating, never leave
EN Water Cooling System If water does not stream out of the water outlets while the boat is moving forward, immediately stop the boat and clean the obstruction from the water cooling system. 1. Disassemble and clean the water cooling system to remove blockage and prevent overheating. 2. Replace damaged parts. Rudder Service 1. Disconnect the water tube from the rudder. 2. Remove the linkage from the rudder arm with Ball Link Pliers. 3. Turn the rudder and loosen the set screw from the rudder pin. 4.
EN Drivetrain Lubrication Always replace the drivetrain parts when they are damaged or show visible wear or injury and damage may result. NOTICE: Running the boat in saltwater could cause some parts to corrode. If you run the boat in saltwater, rinse it thoroughly in freshwater after each use and lubricate the drive system. 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 tube.
EN Troubleshooting Guide Problem Possible Cause Solution Boat will not respond to throttle but responds to other controls Throttle channel is reversed Reverse throttle channel on transmitter Damaged propeller, shaft or motor Replace damaged parts Propeller is out of balance Balance or replace propeller Boat battery charge is low Completely recharge battery Boat battery is damaged Replace boat battery and follow battery instructions Extra noise or extra vibration Blocking or friction on shaft
EN Problem Possible Cause Solution Steering servo wire is damaged or connections are loose Replace or repair damaged parts and adjust controls Do a check of steering servo wires and connections, connect or replace as needed Transmitter is not bound correctly Re-bind BEC (Battery Elimination Circuit) of the ESC is damaged Replace ESC ESC switch is off Power on ESC switch Controls reversed Transmitter settings are reversed Do the Control Direction Test and adjust controls on transmitter appropria
