Introduction

Inspection

It is important that you read and follow

this instruction manual along with the radio

system manual before you run this exciting

boat. Failure to read and understand the

manual could result in personal injury,

property damage or permanent damage to

your boat. It is also important to run your

boat responsibly. With proper care and

maintenance, you will be able to proudly

enjoy your Miss Elam Brushless Catamaran

for many years to come.

When operating the boat, stay clear of

people, full-scale boats, stationary objects

and wildlife. It is preferable to operate the

Miss Elam Brushless Catamaran in low wake,

low wind conditions and in areas free of

people, wildlife and objects.

Before you operate your model, make sure

that your frequency is clear. If someone

is operating on the same frequency, both

models could go out of control, possibly

causing damage to the models or to others.

Check all of the hardware and the propeller

for damage and loose screws before and after

each run.

If at any time while operating your model

you sense any abnormal function, end your

operation immediately. Do not operate your

boat again until you are certain the problem

has been corrected. Always stay clear of

the propeller.

You will need to purchase the following to get your boat on the water:

• 8 AA alkaline batteries for the radio transmitter

• 7.2V Ni-MH Battery Pack with Deans Connector (PRB3313 or PRB3314) (2)

• Twin Peak Dual Battery Charger (DYN4033)

• Tamiya/Deans adapter (PRB3312)

Additional Required Items

PRB3314

4200mAh

PRB3313

• Miss Elam Brushless EP RTR

• Pro Boat radio transmitter

• Boat stand

Install 8 fully charged AA alkaline batteries

into the transmitter, following the

instructions provided for your radio system.

Be sure to install the batteries with respect

to proper polarity.

Attach the side stand pieces by interlocking

them into the end pieces as shown. Secure

the interlocking pieces with medium CA or

epoxy. Make certain you allow the adhesive

to fully cure before placing your boat on

the stand.

Contents

Section 2: Installing the Transmitter Batteries

Section 1: Assembling the Boat Stand

Carefully remove the hatch from the hull.

The Pro Boat water-cooled ESC comes

pre-wired with a Deans-style connector.

Use a 6-cell battery pack listed below for

optimum performance.

• PRB3313 7.2V 3600mAh

w/Deans Connector

• PRB3314 7.2V 4200mAh

w/Deans Connectors

You may also remove the Tamiya-style

connector from conventional battery packs

and purchase WSD1303 from

your local hobby shop. Be sure to

solder the connectors to the battery

in the proper polarity.

Pro Boat offers a charge adapter (PRB3312)

to allow you to charge the PRB3313 and

PRB3314 batteries with Deans connectors

with conventional chargers that use Tamiya-

style connectors.

Follow the instructions included with your fast

charger to ensure a safe charge.

Attach the hook and loop material to the

batteries and the battery boxes.

Confirm that the switch inside the boat is in

the "OFF" position. Install two fully charged

7.2V Ni-MH battery packs into the hull.

Section 3: Installing the 7.2V Ni-MH Battery Packs

Note: Refer to the radio instructions for

specific information on transmitter setup.

Adjust both the Throttle and Steering trims to

the center position.

Turn on the transmitter, then the ESC power

switch. The ESC will beep until you squeeze

the throttle trigger, indicating full throttle. It

may be necessary to adjust the throttle trim

knob to stop the propeller from turning while

the throttle trigger is in the neutral position.

Adjust the rudder trim knob so that the

rudder is centered prior to operation. You

may adjust this control to make the boat run

straight during operation.

Ensure the antenna wire is properly

placed through the antenna tube. It

may be necessary to slightly pull the antenna

tube out to make certain the radio range

is sufficient.

To range check your model, collapse the

transmitter antenna and walk 10 paces

away from the boat. Confirm that you have

control of the boat by actuating the rudder. If

range is acceptable, extend the antenna and

continue with the preparation of your model.

Section 4: Adjusting the Transmitter

Section 5: Checking the Radio System

The rudder control arm should move toward

the front of the boat when right input is

given. Conversely, when left input is given,

the control arm should move toward the back

of the boat.

The ESC will beep until you give full throttle

input. The auto sensing circuitry will

select full throttle position when you hold

full throttle during initial setup. Release

the throttle trigger. With the propeller

free from any objects, give some throttle

input to ensure that the motor is working.

If everything appears to be functioning

correctly, you are ready to run your boat.

Be sure to turn off the receiver switch, then

the transmitter to keep stray signals from

sending the boat out of control.

Note: The ESC has an over-rev limiter that

will not allow you to hold full throttle when

the propeller is not loaded (in the water). To

reset, return the throttle trigger to neutral.

The auto sensing voltage cutoff will also

cut off power to the motor when the ESC

senses that the batteries are nearing

full discharge.

Note: If you are transporting your boat,

make sure you disconnect the battery

from the speed controller and then turn

your radio off until you are ready to run

the boat. Once ready, simply turn the radio

on and plug the battery into the speed

controller, again making sure that the boat

is in neutral.

Right Turn

Section 5: Checking the Radio System

Right Turn

Make sure the radio is "ON" and the

batteries are plugged into the speed

controller. Test the radio system for proper

operation and then carefully place the boat

in the water. Pilot the boat at slow speeds,

staying close to the shoreline to ensure

you have good control and that the boat is

functioning correctly. Be certain to avoid all

objects in the water at all times.

Once you feel comfortable with the control of

your boat, it is safe to go further away from

the shoreline and at faster speeds. When you

notice the boat beginning to lose speed, bring

the boat back to shore. It will be necessary to

allow the electronic components to cool down

and to replace or recharge the battery before

heading out again.

NOTE: As racing inspired boats, hydro hulls

are designed to turn exceptionally well to

the right but you must slow the boat to turn

the boat in the left direction. Failure to do

so may cause the boat to capsize.

Before and at the end of each run, make sure

all screws are tight and the propeller is free

from any entanglement.

Operate your Miss Elam Brushless EP in low

to medium wake conditions to avoid having

problems with the boat overturning.

You may also turn the dual rate dial

down to reduce rudder travel in rough

water conditions.

The ESC in your Miss Elam Brushless EP

is preprogrammed from the factory. The

programming is set for Ni-MH batteries as

shipped with your Miss Elam.

A programming module (PRB3311) is

available to change the programming of

your speed control. Settings include Ni-MH

or LiPo batteries, cutoff voltage settings,

cutoff type, brake on or off, motor timing

and throttle curve. The brake and motor

timing adjustments can be adjusted without

the programming module. See the ESC

instructions for details.

Caution: It is imperative that you do not

attempt to use LiPo batteries in the Miss

Elam Brushless unless it has been properly

programmed or serious damage to the

batteries and electronics may occur.

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 box.

Lubricate the flexshaft, propeller shaft

and all moving parts after every 2–3 hours

of operation.

1. Use either two crescent wrenches, two

10mm wrenches, or a combination of

either to loosen the collet nut.

2. Remove the 3mm setscrew that secures

the flex shaft to the propeller shaft.

Section 9: Speed Control Programming

Section 10: Lubricating the Drive Shaft

5. Lubricate the drive shaft with PRB0100

Water-Proof Marine Grease (see your local

hobby shop). Reinstall the drive shaft in

reverse order. Be sure to reinstall the

nylon washer between the universal and

the stuffing box.

Note: Running the Miss Elam Brushless EP

RTR in salt water could

cause some parts to corrode. If you run

the boat in salt water, rinse it thoroughly

in fresh water after each use and lubricate

the drive system.

Because of its corrosive effects, running

RC boats in saltwater is at the discretion

of the modeler.

3. Remove the propeller shaft from the

propeller strut. Make sure not to lose the

two Teflon washers on either side of the

propeller strut.

4. Slide the flex shaft out of the stuffing

box.
