Proboat Blackjack 29" V3 - new hull, 2000kv motor, 120A ESC & EC5 plugs.

Is there not a way to program the stock ESC without a programing card? I am used to Tekin/Castle/Orion car stuff where you can program with beeps/light settings.

I have read that you could program it with the remote.
Just do like it stands in the manual for hobbywing seaking and you could set it up.
I have not tryed this and i will recomend the proboat led card.

I realy need to set the timing to 7.5 and see if the Stock Electronic runs cooler.
My local dealer of proboat do not have this in store, and if i order it from another country it could take weeks to get here.
Can anyone comfirm that we could follow the esc program With Remote like the hobbywing seaking?
The manual is in this post, just open the hw15 file.

Yes I have a seaking it works great. See my earlier post.

Yes the hobbywing program card work, but does it work to program it with the Remote to the boat and follow the setup like you could do on a hobbywing with the remote?

hey guys I think my RX SR410 is wiped out...I have only taken the boat out twice but Im pretty sure its bad. Im going to contact my LHS tomorrow to see if they can get this fixed for me. I noticed that the SR410 is water resistant and that is the RX in the BJ v3, but the Miss Geico, and the Impulse v3 both come with the SR310 which is the waterproof and fuel proof marine RX. Also another thing that is kind of odd to me about my BJV3 was the drain plug was very loose in the grommet at the back of the boat. Even the LHS noticed this. They said if I had a problem just let them know...well wouldn't you know it the drain plug came out while out playing the other day. Im sure they can make that issue right also.

On a more important note: Pro boat got $1000 of my money today as I bought a Rockstar 48...this thing is sick. My wife wants to kill me but man is it awesome! I did half a tank tonight to break it in. I want to check what RX comes in that and make sure its the marine grade SR310 not the SR410 like my BJV3.

Actually, all the DSMR receivers are water resistant. They would need to be potted to be waterproof.

Please contact our Product Support line via telephone. All Spektrum products have a 1 year warranty as long as you have your receipt, from an authorized retailer.

Or, you could use the service request form found on Horizon Hobby. Com and send it in with a copy of your receipt. It's actually pretty simple.

Guys what do you recommend for touching up some paint chips on my BJ v3? When I got it new it had two small little spots that were white at the end so I wanted to get this fixed.

I also had a few marks on top of the hull where you tapning the hatch out of the box.
Since we tape it for every run i use a good carwax to seal the paint on the hull, then the tape would not damage the hull if you add a wax from time to time.
It also help on small marks.

Anyone know we're I can get a replacement flex shaft horizon hobbies on backorder tell September?

[waterproof]

Yes you could buy the flex shaft for miss geico v2.
It is the same shaft, but different number since the bj shaft came with drive dog and nut.
I have both and they have the same size so it fits perfect :-)

Thanks so I can get the upgrade from kinetic

The online manual reflects a change to the ESC programing that is not present on the current models. There is nothing wrong with the default timing, but if you are using batteries with less than the recommended C rating, I suggest you lower the timing to 7.5*. Your boat's timing is 15*.

The reason I have made the running change to timing is to allow the system to run without requiring so much amperage. Also, not everyone buys the recommended batteries.

If your batteries do not have the necessary discharge amperage, they will puff rather quickly. CHeck your battery temperature after 1 minute of run time, but less than 2.

Hello. Its been a time since we talk about timing, have you test the speed on timing 7.5 vs the 15?
I tested it only two times on timing 15 but i dont had a gps when the boat was new.
Lipos have around 100F on 7.5 timing and 120F on 15 timing.
