30-INCH READY-TO-RUN BRUSHLESS BOAT

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. The various electronic
components used in the boat, such as the servo(s)
and receiver are waterproof, however, most of the
mechanical components are water-resistant and require
additional maintenance after use.

Metal parts, including the bearings, pins, screws and nuts,
propeller, rudder, rudder mounts, prop struts, as well as
the contacts in the electrical cables, will be susceptible
to corrosion if additional maintenance is not performed
after running in wet conditions. To maximize the long­term performance of your boat and to keep the warranty
intact, the procedures described in the “Wet Conditions
Maintenance” section must be performed regularly.

CAUTION: Failure to exercise caution while using

this product and complying with the following
precautions could result in product malfunction and/or
void the warranty.

Water-Resistant Boat with Waterproof Electronics

General Precautions

• Read the WET CONDITIONS MAINTENANCE
procedures and make sure that you have all the tools
you will need to properly maintain your boat.

• Not all batteries can be used in wet conditions.
Consult the battery manufacturer before use.
Caution should be taken when using Li-Po batteries
in wet conditions.

• Most transmitters are not water-resistant. Consult
your transmitter’s manual or the manufacturer
before operation.

• Never operate your transmitter or boat when
lightning is present.

• Salt water is very conductive and highly corrosive.
If you choose to run your boat in salt water,
immediately rinse the boat in fresh water after each
use. Operating your boat in salt water is at the sole
discretion of the modeler.

Wet Conditions Maintenance

• Drain any water that has collected in the hull by
removing the drain plug or canopy and tilting the
boat in the appropriate direction to drain the water.

CAUTION: Always keep hands, fingers, tools and
any loose or hanging objects away from rotating

parts.

• Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts. If
you have an air compressor or a can of compressed
air, blow out any water that may be inside the
recessed connector housings.

• Remove all moving parts. Dry and lubricate parts
after every 30 minutes of operation or if the boat
becomes submerged.

NOTICE: Never use a pressure washer to clean your boat.

• Use an air compressor or a can of compressed air
to dry the boat and help remove any water that may
have gotten into small crevices or corners.

• Spray the bearings, fasteners and other metal parts
with a water-displacing light oil or lubricant.

• Let the boat air dry before you store it. Water (and
oil) may continue to drip for a few hours.

Canopy Removal

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 carefully lifting
the canopy.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

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 voltage decreases too much,
LVC removes power supplied to the motor. Once LVC is
reached, power to the boat decreases. Immediately bring
your boat back to shore for safe landing.

Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the boat
after use to prevent trickle discharge. When ESC has
engaged full-LVC (no motor control), the receiver still
receives full power and is able to control the rudder.

Do not leave the power switch on or battery connected
to the ESC because this will cause battery discharge
below LVC. If you are finished running the boat, charge
your Li-Po battery to half capacity before storage. During
storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall below
3V per cell. LVC does not prevent the battery from over­discharge during storage.

NOTICE: Repeated operation after LVC will damage
the battery.

Tip: Monitor your boat battery's voltage before and
after boating by using a Li-Po Cell Voltage Checker
(DYN4071, sold separately).

Installing the Battery Packs

1. Install the 2 battery packs on the left and right
sides of the boat hull. Secure the batteries with the
included hook and loop straps. When running your
boat in rough water, use Waterproof Hook and Loop
Tape (DYNK0300) between the batteries and the
battery tray to secure the batteries more fully.

Tip: Start with the batteries as far forward as possible,
moving them 1/4 inch at a time toward the bow until
your boat reaches maximum speed.

2. Connect each battery pack to the ESC power
connectors.

If you encounter problems, obey binding instructions
and refer to the troubleshooting guide for other
instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon
Product Support office.

NOTICE: Do not attempt to bind the transmitter and
receiver if there are other compatible transmitters in
bind mode within 400 feet. Doing so may result in
unexpected binding.

Failsafe

In the unlikely event that the radio connection is lost
during use, the receiver will drive the servos to their pre­programmed failsafe positions as set during Binding.

If the receiver is powered on before powering on the
transmitter, the receiver will enter this failsafe mode.
When the transmitter is powered on, normal control is
resumed.

IMPORTANT: Failsafe activates only in the event
that signal is lost from the transmitter. Failsafe will
NOT activate in the event that receiver battery power
decreases below the recommended minimums or
power to the receiver is lost.

Tip: Before placing your boat in the water, secure
the canopy on the hull. Apply clear tape (DYNM0102)
around the canopy seam, if desired.

1. Carefully place the boat in the water.

2. Operate the boat at slow speeds near the shoreline.
Avoid objects in the water at all times. When the
boat is moving forward, ensure water flows out of
the coolant outlet. Remove any blockage from the
rudder inlet and coolant system or the motor and ESC
(electronic speed control) may overheat.

3. Once you are comfortable operating the boat at slow
speeds, it is safe to operate the boat farther from the
shore.

4. If the boat does not go straight, adjust the steering
trim dial on the transmitter.

Tip: If you are using excessive steering trim on your
transmitter to make the boat drive straight, return the
trim to neutral and mechanically center the rudder. To
do this, use a 1.5mm hex driver to loosen the set screw
holding the push rod to the servo. Adjust the linkage in
or out of the brass barrel until the rudder is centered.
Tighten the set screw using a 1.5mm hex driver.

5. Bring the boat back to shore when you notice the
boat starting to lose speed.

6. Power off the ESC and disconnect the battery packs.

7. Allow the motor, ESC and battery packs to cool before
charging the batteries or operating the boat again.

NOTICE: Always power OFF the receiver before
powering OFF the transmitter. If the transmitter is
powered OFF before the receiver, the receiver will
enter failsafe mode.

Testing Your Boat in the Water

Control Check

IMPORTANT: Perform a control 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. Power ON the transmitter and the boat. Do not

install the boat canopy.

2. Place the boat securely on the boat stand.

NOTICE: Do not operate the engine without water
cooling circulation or damage may result.

3. Check steering and throttle on the transmitter.

EN

UL 19 Hydroplane

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.

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. Always pilot your boat for the wind and
water conditions so that the boat does not turn over.

Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a
location to pilot your boat.

Avoid boating near:

• watercraft

• people (swimming areas, fishing areas)

• stationary objects

• waves, wakes

• rapidly moving water

• wildlife

• floating debris

• overhanging trees

• vegetation

If the propeller and rudder are blocked with debris or
vegetation, remove the boat from the water and remove
the debris before continuing operation.

When making turns, decrease the throttle to reduce the
probability of flipping the boat over. If necessary, adjust
your steering input to decrease sensitivity.

Never operate your boat in less than 12 inches (30.5 cm)
of water.

If you need to retrieve your boat from the water, use
fishing equipment or another boat.

NOTICE: When running at full speed in choppy waters,
the prop may exit and re-enter the water repeatedly and
very quickly, subjecting the propeller and flex shaft to
some stress. Frequent stress may damage the propeller
and flex shaft.

CAUTION: Never operate your boat in extreme
temperatures or turbulent water.

CAUTION: Never attempt to retrieve a downed
boat by swimming.

When You Are Finished

1. Power off the receiver.

2. Power off the transmitter.

3. Disconnect and remove the batteries
from the boat.

Tip: Always remove the canopy before
storage or moisture may allow mold and
mildew to grow in the boat.

Motor Care

• Prolong motor life by preventing overheating
conditions. Undue motor wear results from frequent
turns, stops and starts, pushing objects, boating in
rough water or vegetation and boating continuously at
high speed.

• Over-temperature protection is installed on the ESC to
prevent circuit damage, but cannot protect the motor
from excessive physical resistance.

• Repair any damage or wear to the boat

• Lubricate the flex shaft using Pro Boat Marine Grease

(DYNE4200)

• Make note of lessons learned from the trimming of
your boat, including water and wind conditions

Tip: The hook and loop strips in the boat retain water.
To dry them, press on them with a dry cloth.

NOTICE: When you are finished boating, never leave the
boat in direct sunlight or in a hot, enclosed area such as a
car. Doing so can damage the boat.

Water Cooling System

If water does not stream out of the water outlets
while the boat is moving forward, immediately
return the boat to shore and clean any obstructions
or remove kinks from the water cooling lines/
system.

1. Disassemble and clean the water cooling system
to remove blockage and prevent overheating.

2. Replace damaged parts.

After Boating and Maintenance

10

EN

UL 19 Hydroplane

Propeller Strut Depth Adjustment

Raising the propeller strut increases speed but
decreases handling.

Lowering the propeller strut increases stability but
decreases speed.

1. Use a 3 mm hex driver and 7mm open-end wrench
to loosen the propeller strut bolt.

2. Slide the strut up or down to change the angle of
the propeller in relation to the hull.

3. Once desired strut depth is achieved, tighten the
nuts and bolts.

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.

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.

Tip: Use paper or cloth to touch the flex shaft and other
lubricated parts.

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 Pro Boat 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.

the Product securely using a shipping carton. Please note
that original boxes may be included, but are not designed to

serviced or replaced free of charge. Service or replacement
decisions are at the sole discretion of Horizon.

service without notification. Service estimates are available
upon request. You must include this request with your item
submitted for service. Non-warranty service estimates will
be billed a minimum of ½ hour of labor. In addition you will

and cashier’s checks, as well as Visa, MasterCard, American
Express, and Discover cards. By submitting any item to
Horizon for service, you are agreeing to Horizon’s Terms and
Conditions found on our website http://www.horizonhobby.

ATTENTION: Horizon service is limited to Product
compliant in the country of use and ownership.

serviced. Further, the sender will be responsible
for arranging return shipment of the un-serviced
Product, through a carrier of the sender’s choice
and at the sender’s expense. Horizon will hold
