- Fully dry the inside and outside of the boat, including the water cooling lines and jackets around the 

motor and ESC. Remove the hatch and radio box coverr before storing your boat.

- Repair any damage or wear to the boat.

Problem

Possible Cause

Solution

Boat does not respond  

to throttle but responds

to other controls

Throttle servo travel is lower than 

100%

Make sure throttle servo travel is 100% or 

greater

Throttle channel is reversed

Reverse throttle channel on transmitter

Extra noise or extra 

vibration

Damaged propeller, shaft or motor

Replace damaged parts

Propeller is out of balance

Balance or replace propeller

Reduced runtime or 

boat underpowered

Boat battery charge is low

Completely recharge battery

Boat battery is damaged

Replace boat battery and follow battery 

instructions

Blocking or friction on shaft or 

propeller

Disassemble, lubricate and correctly align 

parts
