For optimum performance, propeller balancing
can add several mph to top speed and reduce
vibration. There are several different propeller
balancing tools available. Read the instructions
that accompany the propeller balancing tool as
removing material from the correct part of the
propeller is crucial. Contact a local hobby retail
store for assistance.
Use only Zenoah or Evolution (EVOX1001Q)
2-Cycle Synthetic Oil and premium gasoline
mixed 32:1 to power the HyperSport 48. Fill
the tank completely and secure the fuel cap.
Keep fuel in a moisture-free environment, as
stale fuel will cause the Zenoah G26M engine
to lose performance.
Before the first run of the HyperSport 48, you
should check the radio for proper operation
and to ensure proper control movement of
the rudder and throttle. Also ensure that the
antenna on the boat is extended properly and
that all batteries are in working condition. The
shorter receiver antenna may be left inside the
radio box. Confirm that it does not interfere
with any linkages.
With the radio system turned on (transmit- 1.
ter and receiver) and with the engine off,
walk off 40 to 50 paces from the
HyperSport 48.
Have an assistant remain with the boat 2.
to check for proper control movement of
the rudder from your transmitter input.
If everything appears to be operating 3.
correctly, start the engine. Place the boat
in the water and run it (at about 1⁄3 throt-
tle) close to the shoreline. If the radio sys-
tem is operating properly, you can begin
to run the boat faster and further away
from the shoreline.
Note: It is a good idea to range check
prior to operating your boat after any
repair, installation of new batteries, or
at the beginning of each boating session.
Radio Failsafe
The Spektrum DX3S radio system has a built-
in failsafe that returns the throttle to neutral
in the event of signal loss. See the radio's
instruction manual for instructions on
how to set the failsafe position.
