Control Check

IMPORTANT: 

Perform a control check at the beginning 

of each boating session, after repair or after installing 

new batteries.

1.  Power ON the transmitter and the boat. 

Do not 

install the boat canopy.

2.  Place the boat securely on the boat stand.
3.  Test the steering: Turn the transmitter steering 

wheel to the left and to the right to check for 

proper control movement of the steering nozzle in 

response to your transmitter input.

4.  Test the throttle: Apply minimal throttle and 

check that the motor and flywheel are rotating 

counterclockwise.

5.  If everything appears to be operating correctly, 

prepare to operate the boat in the water.

Battery Pack Installation

1.  Loosen the 4 screws located at each corner 

of the canopy.

2.  Remove the canopy from the hull starting 

with the 2 rear screws. Ensure that the 4 

screws have disengaged from their bases 

before lifting the canopy carefully. 

To secure the battery, use either the included 

self adhesive foam pad or hook and loop tape 

(DYNK0300). We recommend hook and loop 

tape when running your boat in rough water.

3.  Install the battery in the battery tray using the 

hook and look straps. 

4.  Connect the battery pack to the EC3™ 

connector on the ESC.

2.4GHZ DIGITAL

RADIO SYSTEM

1.  Remove the canopy from the hull.
2.  Install the receiver antenna in the antenna tube.
3.  Install the fully charged battery in the compartment 

and secure it with the hook and loop straps.

4.  Power on the transmitter. Ensure the throttle is not 

reversed and the throttle trim is neutral.

5.  Connect the battery to the ESC. 
6.  Keep the throttle at neutral and power on the ESC 

by pushing and holding the power switch for 2 

seconds. 

•  Once armed, the ESC will beep and the LED will 

flash, indicating the number of battery cells it has 

detected.

•  1 short beep will sound and the LED will turn 

solid when the ESC is ready to run.

NOTICE: 

Pressing and holding the ESC 

SET

 button for 

3 seconds allows you to change the battery chemistry 

from LiPo to NiMH. Refer to 

Electronic Speed 

Control (ESC) Programing

 for more information.

7.  Install the canopy on the hull.
