Section 5: Installing the Rudders
6
Carefully remove the rubber bands holding the rudder control
arms and the nylon rudder bushings in place.
Slide the rudders into the rudder struts with a bushing above and
below the strut.
Position the rudder control arms at a 90-degree angle to the
rudder as shown and tighten the 3mm x 15mm hex screws,
securing them with 3mm nuts.
Apply screw-locking compound to the threads to lock the nuts
in place.
NOTE: The twin-oversized rudders offer incredible handling
and eliminate the need for skid fins. They also help protect the
propeller from impact with submerged obstacles in the water.
Care must be taken in shallow water to keep the rudders from
becoming damaged.
Section 6: Installing the Rudder Stabilizer
Section 7: Propeller Balancing
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.
Turn on the radio system and confirm that the steering trim is
centered.
Position the rudder stabilizer arms as shown with the control arms
pointing away from the transom.
Tighten the 3mm x 15mm hex screws, securing them with
3mm nuts.
Apply screw-locking compound to the threads to lock the nuts
in place.
NOTE: Be sure that the rudders are parallel with one another
and centered.
Section 8: Fueling the Tank
Use only Zenoah
®
2-Cycle Synthetic Oil and premium gasoline
mixed 32:1 to power the ShockWave
™
55 Super Sport. 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.
Section 9: Range Checking the JR XR3i Radio System
Before the first run of the ShockWave 55 SS, 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.
1. With the radio system turned on (transmitter and receiver)
and the transmitter antenna down (engine off), walk off
40 to 50 paces from the ShockWave 55 SS.
2. Have an assistant remain with the boat to check for proper control
movement of the rudder from your transmitter input.
3. If everything appears to be operating correctly, raise the
antenna and start the engine. Place the boat in the water and run
it (at about
1
⁄3 throttle) close to the shoreline. If the radio system 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 season.
Section 10: Starting the Engine
NOTE: The Zenoah G26M carburetor is factory adjusted to deliver
optimum performance. See the Zenoah Engine manual for fine-tuning
adjustments and other helpful information to make your RC boating
experience trouble-free.
Priming the Engine
Press the priming bulb several times until it becomes
filled with fuel. This is not necessary if the engine has
recently been run.
