Drivetrain Lubrication

Always replace the drivetrain parts when they are damaged 
or show visible wear or injury and damage 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 tube. 

Lubricate the flex shaft and propeller strut after every 30 
minutes of operation and/or everytime you change the 
batteries. 

1.  Inside the hull, use 2 10mm open-end wrenches to 

loosen the collet nut from the flex shaft.

2.  Slide the flex shaft out from the stuffing tube and drive 

strut at the rear of the boat. 

3.  Wipe the old lubricant and material from the flex shaft.

Tip:

 Use motor spray (DYN5500) to break down the 

grease buildup.

4.  Lubricate the full length of the flex shaft assembly 

up to the drive dog using Dynamite Marine Grease 
(DYNE4200). Also apply grease to the collet threads. 

5.  Carefully reinstall the flex shaft in the drive strut, stuffing 

tube and collet. If the flex shaft is difficult to remove 
from (or install into) the collet, rotate the flex shaft to the 
right while pulling it from (or inserting it into) the collet.

NOTICE: 

Do not rotate the flex shaft to the left inside the 

coupler.

Ensure there is a 2mm gap between the drive strut and 
drive dog to allow for flex shaft shrinkage under load.

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.

NOTICE: 

Because of its corrosive effects, running RC boats 

in saltwater is at the discretion of the modeler.

1.  Pull and hold the Throttle Trigger to full throttle and 

turn the ESC on.

2.  After 2 seconds a 

“-B-B”

 will sound. Wait another 

5 seconds and the ESC will give a rising tone to 
indicate you have entered 

Programming Mode

.

3.  After entering Programming Mode, you will hear 4 

tones in a loop indicating 

Programmable Items

. Push 

the Throttle Trigger to full brake within 3 seconds 
after the tone sounds matching the programmable 
item you want to select.

4.  After selecting a programmable item, you will hear 

several tones in a loop indicating 

Programmable 

Values

. Pull Throttle Trigger to full throttle to select 

the value matching the tone. The ESC will give an 
alternating tone to indicate the item is selected. 

5. 

Keep the trigger in Full Throttle to return to 

Step 3 

and continue item selection. Move the throttle stick 
to full brake position within 2 seconds to exit the 
Program Mode.
